So my favorite operating system by far is Windows 8. I have it on my laptop and another computer also. Now, I have been collecting parts to build a computer, and I was going to ask you how installing Windows 8 works. Now I know that you CAN buy a CD and just boot the system off of your optical drive, and that will install windows. Now, do you think there is some kind of way that I could torrent it and put it on a USB drive, and then buy a CD key for it at G2A.com or something? If I could do that, please let me know or better explain it to me! Thanks!

you dont even need to buy a CD key. But yes you can torrent it, boot from USB to install it and then you can use Microsoft Toolkit 2.5.2 to activate it. If you have any problems just pm me and ill try to help.
Thank you sir. How would it automatically start installing it from a USB? or would I need to click on setup?

When you boot the computer depending on what one you have there should be a option that says boot options. Then its something like boot from USB. If thats not there you will have to change the boot order so that USb is first.

But I'm saying would I have to select "setup.exe" or whatever it is once it boots the USB?

You can actually install it from the HDD if you do it right.
