Hi,


My HDD crashed recently, which was very annoying, but I thought would be OK.


I had (or at least thought) backed up everything on my PC. All files, and Windows 8 to a USB drive.


I replaced the HDD and went to put in the USB, everything was working sort of OK, and a Windows screen loaded, but my only option was to recover my Windows installation. Which of course I didn't have. There was no recovery partition on my HDD, as it had crashed! I followed the procedure Windows recommended, but....


I am now stuck using Ubuntu, which is terrible, as I can't find Windows 8 anywhere.


Where can I find a copy of Windows 8? I have my product key.


My computer is an Asus S56CA.


Thanks :)
