Can I get a quick opinion before sale ends?

20. You could absolutely do it yourself

it is not that difficult at all.

You can get a copy of windows directly from microsoft for free here

https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/software-download/windows7

There should be a license sticker on that machine somewhere just plug the license number into that webpage and it should download the correct version of windows for you.

Next you need to burn it to a cd or install it onto a flash drive for the install. For a flash drive install I use this to create a bootable flash drive. https://rufus.akeo.ie/

During the install it will ask you for a cd key. Just put in the license number on the sticker on the computer.

Heres a quick video on installing the SSD

You can do it!

If you want to be careful leave your old drive in if you have the space and just disconect it till you are done with the install. if something goes wrong just reconnect the old drive and disconect the SSD and restart right back into your old windows install.

If you have other questions just reply here and I will try to help if you want to attempt it. I may not see it immediately but will reply as soon as I do I generally look at DU every day multiple times.
