Perhaps you can talk to a DS rep and see if they will allow you to ship your copy of Windows to DS for them to use and install on your machine?  Might have to pay a service fee for the installation, but who knows.

Well, over clocking is easy enough without an OS. The hardware we'll test on the torture racks before we install it in the system. However, we won't be able to do the three day burn in test. Which is what generally takes the most time on an order. On the bright side, this means the computer should only take about a week to ship. On the dark side, this means the computer will not have the complete testing we usually do. So there's a chance that one of the over clocks may not take once the OS is installed. What I recommend, is send us the OS and have us install it for you. A $35 fee. That way we can get all the testing done and we can stress it on 3D mark to make sure the over clocked settings are stable.
