Not a tech support thread, just a sendoff after days of struggle.

>Original Installation Media
So you have an install disk? Fucking easy.
All you need is the disk, something that can read a disk, and a flash drive.
You know what I'm implying here right

So if you run it from some other directory (i.e. you double click it in Explorer, so you're running from C:\Windows\) you instantly blow your system away and can't recover it. 10/10 troll

If you just need to reinstall, all you have to do is rip the ISO off of that disk and write it to a bootable flash drive.
Then install from said flash drive.
This is assuming all of your shit is backed up.

I do have a bootable flash drive with the ISO on it.
But it won't allow me to reinstall without reformatting the whole disk. And if I do that, I'll lose my product key.
