New SSD and Clean install issue
Just got a new HDD for my girl's PC.
It's about 3 years old. It was Vista, earlier this year I got her retail Windows 7 Home Premium upgrade (came with 32 and 64 bit DVDs).
I took advantage of the 64GB 100 dollar SSD from Micro Center.
Install went as smooth as can be.
When I put the Product Key in, however, it errors out saying the DVD I have is for an update only, not a clean install.
Anyone have the number I need to call at MS to fix this? Replacing a hard drive, or upgrading, should allow me to clean install Windows 7 on her PC.
I bought it from Sam's club earlier this year, legit retail packaging...
The original hard drive is disconnected but has 7 installed just fine, I was trying to give her a little speed with a cheap but fast SSD.
