| | Win 7 64 bit Upgrade Activation problem Hi, I had a problem with a virus on my Win 7 Home 32bit pc and went for the reformat and a fresh install via the custom option, and at the same time I upgraded to a an i5 processor and mobo which meant going to th 64bit version. But when I came to activate the install on line I got a message that the key is for an upgrade not a new install. I used the same custom install process to go from XP to 7 32bit with out a problem. So other than paying out for a new key can anybody offer any suggestions what to do now? |
