Hello,
All End Users should first seek support through their System Builder.
However, if unable to obtain support from their System Builder, we offer do offer the End User E-2-E Media Replacement support at a minimal charge.
The End User can access the End User Media Replacement Form via the below links depending upon their location.
US/Canada: http://www.microsoft.ca/smallbiz/replacemedia/default.mspx
Latam (Spanish):

Brazil (Portuguese):

In order to validate your replacement request, you will need to provide a valid COA (Certificate of Authenticity) number on the End User Media Replacement Form.
This is a 14 digit numerical number in the following format: 00000-000-000-000. The COA number usually can be found on your manual that came with the product.
For more information on locating your COA number see

If you are unable to provide the COA (Certificate of Authenticity) number, we will need you to fax the proof-of-purchase information (photocopy of your original invoice, along with a dated sales receipt) along with your completed End User Media Replacement Form, so we may validate your proof-of purchase. Once your proof-of purchase is validated, we may process your replacement request.
Reminder: Microsoft cannot ship to PO BOXES, so please list a street address for your ship-to location.
If there is anything else we can do for you, please let us know. Thank you for contacting Microsoft.
