Will a burned copy of window 7 work?

Don't use his CD key, get your own.

artiski:
Hmmm, he has already used on his laptop and computer :/. If i try to use it and it doesn't work, will my own os be erased in the progress?

Not "erased," "disabled."

Also, if microsoft decides the key has been compromised, then your cousin could have his installations locked down (disabled).

As you were advised earlier:  1) get a crack, 2) get your own key.  There are no other safe options, and option 1) isn't particularly "safe," either.

And, if you need to ask "where I can haz teh crackz?" then you're better off going with option 2) because (I swear) I'll sell you to /b/ and let the channites feast upon your pain.

the installation disc/files can be duplicated, sold(illegally), download for free directly from microsoft and you`ll have no issues with it. the problem is the CD Key, which is what usually costs a ton and can only be used once or something like that. theres some keys that has a minimum usage count, i mean allowing more than 1PC to use the same key, i forgot whats it called.

theres this Windows 7 Enterprise edition (90days trial) from Microsoft itself that was free, dunno now. reinstalling the OS refreshes the trial BUT theres a program that just reinstalls the part that refreshes the key for the trial, sweet unlimited free OS, plus i`m running it on multiple computers, they all activated without any issues. well thats just me, my dad's legit windows 7 home sucks(it came with his laptop).

I think it would be more difficult to get a copy to work than a real legal copy. I swapped from Windows 7 to Ubuntu because Windows is god awful and f**king expensive where as Ubuntu is free and awesome. I do still have a win XP partition on my laptop for gaming.
