hi quick q,

can i use my laptop microsoftt activation code with an official windows 7 disk (same version etc) to avoid the bloatware?
 
if your using it on the laptop, then there should be no issue.
also assuming the disk is the same version of 7 that the laptop had from the factory. (you cant use a home premium key in ultimate and such).
 
Technically NO, the oem license you get from dell, hp, compaq, toshiba have been deactivated by microsoft. You will have to call them up and have them give you a new activation key.

If you use a standard Windows disk like what you can order from Newegg, then you CAN use the key on the bottom of the machine as long as it's the same version.
