Dear Microsoft Community:

Windows 10 Download
My wife and me purchased Windows XP Pro two disk, then we purchased two Disk Windows 7 Home Premium. Both desktops I upgraded to Windows 10. My wife's desktop had an OEM #, because a new motherboard was installed. No problem with upgrade.
I am 76 years old and while retired in the city of Panama, Republic of Panama for the paat fifteen years I spent four years in Iraq, four years in Afghanistan and six months in Regga, Syria supporting the Kurdish Women fight against ISIS.
My Toshiba laptop with Winows7 Home Premium was destroyed by incoming rocket fire. HP here in Panama donated a new laptop pre-installed with Windows 7 Ultimate, Registration- 00426-OEM-8992662-00173
To be quite honest Panama is very corrupt. The HP donated new laptop some times when I boot up, the laptop will make a very loud click near the power button and just shut down. HP and other software/hardware engineers were unable to find anything wrong so they claim. Purchased a new CANON Printer IP2700 and when I set up the printer would not work. The electronic store refused to take the printer back or even help with my 30 day guarantee.
Please is there any way I can get my HP Compaq nc6400 notebook with the OEM # upgraded. Pre-installed, I have no disk.
I live on Social Security that I earned while in the United States Air Force for twelve years. I can not afford to buy a new Windows 10.
Thanks in advance,
Dr. Hubert Hechabarria
