I have around 30 windows 7 pro COAs (used to work in a pc repair shop, pulled the COAs on every dead pc that came through). Most of them are from dells, but I haven't had an issue activating on custom pcs. If anyone wants one, let me know

If you have a spare still, I’d take one. Got a laptop from the e-waste pile at work and was going to clean it up for a family member.

DM’d you, what kind of laptop out of curiosity?

Latitude 7280. They pull the ram and m2 from it. 16gb ram and a new drive are cheap for that thing. New batteries are around $80. They are great daily drivers.
