So I purchased an inferno a while back and it has been great but it had a lot of rubbish on it so wanted to reset it, so I went through the windows 8 reinstall menu and just told it to clear all personal files etc and reset to the base version.
This all went through fine but the windows key will not work (the one on the underside of the laptop) so I skipped it and now I am on the desktop and it has down the bottom right "Windows 8 Pro Build 9200", however I am pretty sure it was the basic/home version of windows 8 I had pre-installed, so is this normal? and if so is there a way to downgrade to home or reset it so it will re-install home?
As the inferno has no cd drive the only way I could install externally would be via USB and I dont have a usb drive to hand (hence the use of the built in windows 8 reinstall).
Any help would be great.
