I've got a Dell 5500 laptop here with knackered hard drive. The Microsoft operating system label is white and faded, but I can make out the 25 digit number on it (with the exception of the last digit)
It there a way of determining which o/s it is with any of the known 24 characters before it ? It's almost certain to be Vista, but if it is a later version then I would attempt trying all combinations of the last to get a Win 10 upgrade on another machine.
First five are G9F9Y if anyone knows.
