It's an 8.0 which should upgrade up to current. If the PC you're targeting doesn't already have a version of Windows, then it's not going to work. I'd have to go through whatever hoops M$ wants me to go through for a license transfer. The key was purchased online when 8 had just come out and they were selling upgrades for $40USD, but it was never installed. As a matter of fact I have 2 licenses that were never used... google and Labob 2 Awards

If its an upgrade from a previous OS you cannot transfer the license. You are still bound by the original agreement. However if its a full copy you can transfer it as many times as you want so long as its installed on only one computer at a time. Awards

If the laptop is to old win* will suck big time. I had major issues when I installed it on a laptop from 2008. Just FYi. Run the Win8 checker first. Awards
