I know that a key cannot be bought on its own. I bought the upgrade on my friends computer, and when it gave me the key, i tried to use it to upgrade his os but it wouldnt let me. Sorry for the confusion.

What gave you a key?

I already upgraded his OS while he wasn't looking, and his account was open. Thanks anyway

An upgrade install takes 30 minutes or so, He "wasn't looking" for awhile.

By the way, whoever said a system running 7 Starter couldnt run Ultimate, your wrong. My windows netbook originally came with starter, and I upgraded it successfully to ultimate soon after I bought it. Also, I bought the upgrade before Windows 8 came out so please stop calling it bogus. I knew that, as soon as Windows 8 came out, Microsoft would stop selling Windows 7 Upgrades. I misstyped the topic, because I last posted on a forum about this right after 8 came out, and what I meant to say was "A while ago I bought the Windows 7 Ultimate Upgrade." Sorry about the typo.

See post #15.
I never said Ult wouldn't work on an original Starter system. I wondered if it would given starter was put on very low-end, lower powered machines with little RAM. Ult can work on many systems but may be feature-limited and slow.
