On January 7th, the survey found that recently, a large number of sellers of cheap and genuine Win7 operating system appeared on Taobao and other e-commerce platforms.

In the survey, it was found that all of the cheap Win7 software is Dell OEM version. According to one of the sellers, although the software is Dell's OEM version, it is applicable to any brand machine and assembled computer. After the purchase, the buyer only needs to install the pirated or genuine vista or xp operating system on the computer. The Dell OEM CD purchased from him will be installed by clicking Upgrade. The other party also said that because the software contains Microsoft's official COA label, it can enjoy Microsoft's official after-sales service for genuine users after purchase.

For the seller's statement about COA, Netease Technology got the following reply after consulting Microsoft customer service: "COA tags are an important sign to identify whether the operating system is genuine. Genuine Windows operating system software comes with a COA tag, which is a prominent sign that identifies Microsoft genuine software products. If the software you purchased lacks a COA tag, it means that you own It may not be a genuine Windows operating system software."

A seller told reporters that this batch of software upgrades to XP or Vista systems issued by some high-end users to the upgraded version of Win7 operating system, can not be installed in the computer without operating system, but if the original XP or Vista system is installed on the computer, and it can be upgraded smoothly whether it is pirated or not. In addition, unlike the previous OEM version of the operating system, this batch of software does not verify the BIOS brand information in the computer motherboard, so it can be upgraded on any computer.

When talking about the source of goods, the seller said that the software was obtained directly from Dell, so it can be guaranteed to be genuine and limited. Before the deadline, neither Dell nor Microsoft stated that Dell's OEM version of Win7 was being sold on Taobao.
