    Do have enough RAM? A lot of the netbooks only have 1GB of RAM and for most versions of Win 7, 2GB is MINIMUM.

    The way that Microsoft recommends is the Anytime Upgrade:

    Windows Anytime Upgrade - Windows 7 features - Microsoft Windows

    Apparently Starter to Ultimate is an existing upgrade.

    I hope that the "genuine/licensed" question doesn't mean that you are unaware that this'll cost you a significant amount of money.
