Labels for the Windows operating systems
Windows 7 Certificate of Authenticity: Computer models preinstalled with the Windows 7 operating
system have a Certificate of Authenticity label affixed to the computer cover or inside the battery
compartment. The Certificate of Authenticity is your indication that the computer is licensed for a Windows 7
product and is preinstalled with a Windows 7 genuine version. In some cases, an earlier Windows version
might be preinstalled under the terms of the Windows 7 Professional license downgrade rights. Printed on
the Certificate of Authenticity is the Windows 7 version for which the computer is licensed and the Product
ID. The Product ID is important when you reinstall the Windows 7 operating system from a source other than
a Lenovo product recovery disc set.
