[HELP]Installing Seven Ultimate Alright well I got a CD from a friend that has Windows 7 ultimate on it. (build 7600 32 bit) But I was stupid and installed the Starter version rather than Ultimate. Now im stuck. I tried to reinstall and click on where it says "Ultimate" but I cant. I get to where it says "Upgrade" or "Custom" and I select custom. Then it doesnt give me a choice of clicking on Ultimate. Instead it just goes into the installation process and then says
that the installation is not successful because it is missing files or something. I am really stuck here and would love some help. I cannot stand windows 7 starter and would like to upgrade.
PLEASE HELP?
Thanks in advance, | My System Specs |

Try doing a clean install ... format the drive via the custom menu ...

Ok well I have tried that. So do I just insert the CD containing the OS and then go to custom? Sorry Im a bit of a noob when it comes to OS's... I can program all day but when it comes to this stuff I have no idea what to do T.T
And I know I trust this guy. I dont think it has anything wrong with it, I jus dont know how to use it. And im not about to spend 200 on a OS when i can jus go back to Vista... | My System Specs | | System Manufacturer/Model Number HP G series OS Windows 7 Starter CPU AMD Athlon Dual-Core QL-62 2.00GHz Motherboard 32-Bit Memory 3GB RAM 350 GB HD Graphics Card Nvidia Chipset |

ok Well I did what you guys said and I followed the TuT. But Igot to the part where it says "expanding files" and it gets stuck. Then an error message pops up that says "Windows cannot install required files"... What do I do? I really hate seven starter... I should have just clicked ultimate... | My System Specs | | System Manufacturer/Model Number HP G series OS Windows 7 Starter CPU AMD Athlon Dual-Core QL-62 2.00GHz Motherboard 32-Bit Memory 3GB RAM 350 GB HD Graphics Card Nvidia Chipset |
