| | How to upgrade to Win 7 Home Premium without Vista I had a fully activated and legal copy of Windows Vista running on my computer 3 months ago. I formatted my disk to install Windows 7, thinking I will activate with the upgrade key I bought. How do I upgrade now? Please tell me there is way to do it from within Windows 7. I have installed all the programs I want and have it running exactly the way I want it. Don't tell me I need to clean install Win 7 again? Last edited by jackdawg; 10-22-2009 at 06:09 AM..

If it's the RC then you can do a clean install with the upgrade version. It has to be activated first. This will be confirmed soon when people will probably try every variation and post what can be done. Last edited by Dave76; 10-22-2009 at 07:18 AM.. |

| |  I had Windows Vista Home Premium (OEM) on my notebook. I formatted my C: Installed Win 7 Home Premium Upgrade Activated with Win 7 Upgrade Key. It activated and fully works now!!!!!!!!! No need to reinstall with Windows Vista HP and upgrade. Completely speculating, but it may be because I have an OEM partition before my C: with the Windows Vista setup files. |
