upgrade to win 7 ultimate from win pro test

Is your current install 32 bit or 64 bit? Are you "Booting" from it or running it from Windows? Did you try just entering the key via anytime upgrade?

Not to be picky but that's the first time you've posted that link in this thread? For me it is anyway, I have signatures turned off, if that's where it is. I see references to it but no actual posted link in your posts? That may be why I'm missing it.

Thanks for the heads up. I am posting from phone so can't drag bookmarks into posts until I find a phone or app that does this like I do with mouse on laptop easily from Firefox drop down menu. Any suggestions? It may guide my next phone purchase. Having to open the bookmark to copy it on iPhone wastes time.

So I refer to links in signature or "under picture below" for those who don't know what signature is. But I didn't know these can be turned off.

I forget sometimes that I have signatures turned off. It's one of the first things I do when I join a forum and after a while I just forget they even exist. The irony is sometimes I'll actually put a little phrase in my own sig even though I'll never see it. Just a short one liner etc. What I should probably do is change it to read "I have signatures turned off". I don't own a cell phone or tablet so I can't help you there.

Greg you can go to User CP and turn Show Signatures on or off.

I show Signatures because on Johns forums the size ect. are controlled.
Some sites the Signatures are 80% of every post and it makes it very hard to read the post.

That's why I started turning them off years ago.
