Brand name and if so make and model
Custom built did you get any recovery cd's?
There is no place legally you can download Microsoft OS legally.
After the above questions are answered then I can instruct you further.

I don't mean to pick nits, but TechNet, MSDN, and trials from Microsoft should be legitimate for most North American and European users.

P2P is not a acceptable route and we will not support it in any way here.

If system is custom built then you would have to have the correct version of the OS Home, Media or Pro to reinstall.
Even then there is no guarantee that all the drivers would be installed especially if it is a newer system.
but this is a variety of builds, some are custom builds not built by me but I am working on, some are branded builds from Dell and HPbut this is a variety of builds, some are custom builds not built by me but I am working on, some are branded builds from Dell and HP
Not sure what you mean by this. Is this a repair facility or shop?

Not confrontation but simply we all have different levels of expertise and knowledge so it is not uncommon to assist in a topic with other ideas.I did not realize I was going to start a bit of a confrontation here
What you need to do is to bookmark manufacturers websites so youcan pull the drivers for each system you work on.
As far as reloading system the best advice I can give you is the owner should have recovery disks or a recovery partition. You would be investing thousands in to just buying every version of OS's in both retail and OEM versions.
I further would suggest you read the Microsoft Eula's for OEM and Retail versions as they do differ in what you can and can not do.
A OEM reg number will not work on a retail installation and vice versa.

%SystemRoot%\system32\OEMBIOS.BIN
%SystemRoot%\system32\OEMBIOS.DAT
%SystemRoot%\system32\OEMBIOS.SIG
%SystemRoot%\system32\CatRoot\{F750E6C3-38EE-11D1-85E5-00C04FC295EE}\OEMBIOS.CAT
and get the key using Jelly Bean Keyfinder.
This will preserve pre-activation.
Or just use the COA key, a windows sticker, you can find on the outside of a OEM computer and use the generic OEM disk. You might have to activate by phone.

The day Microsoft is stopped being sued for many illegal action it did had done is doing and probably will be doing in the future is the day i will respect them as a company.
Its like a policeman giving you a ticket for not doing your stop sign and on the next corner it does not do is stop.
