    So reinstall windows Home Premium with SP1, problem solved, you have the key, you just need the installer. If you wanted to install Pro you`d have to buy it.

    And install 64 bit so you can max out the memory.

    Service Pack 1 is a simple update which should have been installed years ago.

    chewtah let try to get things in order.

    1. You have Windows 7 Home Premium/32
    You will never see all of your 4 gigs of ram.

    2. Do your backup to a external hard drive or ssd. Not DVD's

    3. You must have SP-1 before you try to fix Windows 7.

    Complete this tutorial by Golden so we can have a look.

    As i said in your other thread. Get a friend to download SP1 to a usb, and input from that.

    To earlier contributors, the OP has had his OS verified via Mxdiag.

    @ Dave,
    He had a post in Activations thats what i was referring too.

    I suspect his best bet is a factory reset, having said that he's running on a data cap, not good for a reset , hence my comment in his other thread.

    Factory reset over a clean install of Windows 7 Ultimate ? No way, that`s crazy talk

    I will ask Mike to post the download site here again, I am not on the PC with that bookmark.

    Hi,
    Yep if you have a 7 home premium 32 bit key I've read others say it will activate a 64 bit version of home premium
    I've personally never tried it,
    But none the less there are places to download the iso file to clean install the version with sp1 already on it,

    Once you have the iso just put it on a ubs with option 2 here,

    To install that OS with Service pack 1, he will also have to use the code on his COA sticker, which will only entitle him to the Home version. (BUT he still has a 3 or 4gig monthly download allowance).

    HE DOES NOT have an Ultimate activation code.
