An activation wizard screen pops up in couple of days with options. The only minor issue here is the activation CANNOT be done online so make sure it's not ticked at the end of the installation.

The product key is there so do the install instead of the system recovery because it might not always work even with the SSD in the same size as the original hard drive. Obtained an OEM Windows 7 Home Premium 圆4 some time ago from a "third party" source and performed a fresh install on every single SSD in the laptop (two or three because of upgrades).

It's why I've upgraded all of my devices (after making a full system image of them!!!) even if only to roll them back after Windows 10 is activated. Once your hardware and/or CD key are "upgraded", you may reinstall Windows 10 on that device at any point in the future. You could download a Windows 10 DVD image (.iso) from Microsoft (similar version to Win7, probably Home version) and use your Windows 7 CD key in the Windows 10 installer (this is doable until the end of the free upgrade period, July 31, 2016).You could download a Windows 7 DVD image (.iso) from Microsoft (whichever version you are licensed for, I'd imagine Home Premium on a DV7 unit) and then install using the CD key from the bottom of the laptop.You have a couple options for 'clean installs': If you cannot find or make recovery media, you can always order a recovery DVD from HP. Some SSD "kits" come with cloning software and an external enclosure, but they usually cost more than just the drives themselves. In my experience, the easiest way (and best as far as the SSD is concerned) is to run the recovery media/usb with just the blank ssd in the laptop and have a fresh install that way. I have external hard drives available and 64GB and 128GB SD cards but currently no large USB dongles (might have a 16 or 32 GB somewhere). I was hoping I could have just slotted the drive into bay two, started the recovery process and been given the option to reinstall to bay two but suspect it's not that straightforward. I would also appreciate guidance on the best way to go about the SSD installation and fresh install. What are your thoughts? What are the pros and cons? Are there any incompatibility issues that anyone has experienced? I'm also looking at whether to get windows 10 whilst it's free but have heard some horror stories. Is it possible to do so? Is it necessary or are there alternatives? If so, which is the better option? It does not show any errors but I can't make it active. It is 15.7 GB in capacity with 13.8 used and 1.92 remaining. I did a fresh install using the recovery partition a couple of years ago and it worked fine on that occasion. I don't recall ever making recovery disks even though it tells me they were made in 2011. I am leaning towards a fresh installation rather than clone but my recovery partition though seemingly intact is disabled. I've recently purchased a SSD to breath fresh life into my 5 yr old dv7 laptop.
