I was given a couple HP servers with product keys, but no installation disks. Being pretty familiar with isos, I figured I can find the isos and then give these babies a fresh install. I don't need any new operating systems as they will be behind a good firewall. Getting to the point. I found that Microsoft is kind enough to provide software. Much to my dismay, the iso that Microsoft has provided cannot be made into bootable media whether it is a DVD or USB.

My issue is much less about the product keys than it is about creating an installation disk or USB. I know the difference between OEM and non-OEM. That ISO that I mentioned in the subject line gave the impression that I could download it and then create a bootable media with it. As it says in the installation instructions: 1. Click the Download link on this page to start the download. To copy the ISO Image download to your computer to burn a CD at a later time click Save or Save this program to disk. Use the directions for your CD burner to create a CD from the ISO-9660 image file https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=6905.
