original or not (All)

[Dazeagle]

How can I know whether I have an original version of windows installed on my PC or a copied one?

You can't. If the copied CD works, then the CD burning program made an exact copy of the original.

If you have the disk itself, a copy may be marked with a Sharpie-type permanent marker.

Good judgement comes from experience, and experience comes from bad judgement
