first there is a sudden reboot
as I write this email
screen dazzle and freeze

remove USB CDROM and fan

force restarted

can only do
sfc /scannow


C:\WINDOWS\system32>sfc /scannow

Beginning system scan.  This process will take some time.

Beginning verification phase of system scan.
Verification 100% complete.

Windows Resource Protection did not find any integrity violations.

one of devices drivers caused the problem

backup windows 10 via windows 7 system backup

even this is not updated yet


but now I can only find backup windows 10 via windows 7 system backup

and only way is to backup to external USB drive
and the transfer to DVD



fdisk whole disk and really fresh install win 10

fdisk whole disk to only one partition

remove the OEM partition (win restore)

Then fdisk to two primary partitions

the first system partition will again appear automatically

now put first partition to be 59 Gb
fresh install win 7 pro 64 bit

continue install second partition x86 win 7

reason to use win 7 EFI boot menu

go back first partition
just install NIC drivers CD\LAN (Realtek auto detected)
also need to msconfig to boot from 64bit partition

Install Chrome
Install IE 11
(reboot and auto reboot again)

This time NO auto WINupdate


Yes this installation is faster and cleaner


so although there is a auto reboot once
(maybe next time dun need to update to IE 11)
or dun need to install Chrome

as dun the last page prompt
to close all windows program
to keep or not keep personal data
(I choose keep nothing)

This clean installation look ok

The intel driver also upgraded
and screen change to 1024

BTW after reboot
VIA need manually upgrade to VIA (win10) audio driver
but i decide to roll back and monitor

nothing I can do for the Realtek Gb NIC

So conclusion
free install from window 7 pro
only run network driver NIC from ECS motherboard CD
(next time download and put together with win7 iso DVD)

so bypass Windows 7 
display, VIA audio driver
(since last year write to VIA - their driver being updated
hope this will solve the problem 
although I am not using new windows 10 driver
but maybe I will do that next week)

and go for windows 10 drivers

or Simply there is a hidden time bomb
within the previous win 7 win 10 installation
that caused all the auto reboot sudden dealth

Anyway, have to monitor the situation again




Finally installation Genuine Windows 7 license key

After purchased Windows 7 license key from Dexnology on Qoo10

First is received a gmail and then a whatsapp from support
but was driving so ignore

When came back home at noon
download their OS image file
(2.5 G ISO and only within 5 min - very fast services)
I download both 64 and x86

I burn into a DVD setup disk

Initially want to just run winsetup but clean boot DVD
and format the HDD and  install their image

using their first email and key in the installation key

run the ECS motherboard CD to get NIC installed

panic once as windows 7 has prompt 3 days to get activated 
and network was just connected

whatsapp and email them
there is a delay but lucky there is reply after i nap a while

run the activation with second email from them

and that is so simple as even I can copy and paste key over

-------------

I boot from external WDC HDD with pre-installed windows 7
( this image is using HP OEM windows 7 


DVD)
this installation license has been expired during CNY

I take very long time to activate windows
(need double reboot and long wait as it is ext HDD and 
Microsoft take longer verification as why there is 
a license update from same PC (different HDD)
but luckily I managed to activate another HDD onto same PC)

Although also prove that I dun need their image
and so this license key I can use for any other windows 7 image
as long it is the same PC

Too bad I have no other PC to test if I can reuse this license

PS: both license is done via activation option
and not changing product key option
under my computer>properties>windows activation

summary

For 48 SGD it is ok to get a copy of OEM Microsoft windows 7 pro
license key

This business model is workable

Let review this after 180 days or one year later

I will install this license onto
1) Thumb drive
2) another PC
3) into another partition and upgrade to Windows 10
4) upgrade to 8.1 (maybe dun need)
5) run with Remix OS
6) another ext HDD with 64 bit version (maybe dun need)

PS:
0) I will need to Acronics this installation into a image
so that I can do disk recovery and faster installation
