Don't post the product key - somebody will nick it.
While installing Win 7 can't find DVD drivers on Vista

That's why I skipped the last 4-6 figures. Someone's always looking for a freebie! Guess I shouldn't have put anything.
Windows loaded past the page it froze at before. Installing now.

So it loaded. It didn't ask which version of 7 to load. Computer says it's 7 Ultimate. I think my Product Key says Home Premium. Doesn't want to take the Key.

Did you run the eicfg remover first?
You will find reading the posts helps.
Whatever product key you have, you can download the Ultimate .iso - because all the MS isos contain all editions.
The trick is to point this at the iso you downloaded, all editions will then be available.

Geez, I overlooked that. Guess I have to burn a new one. After I was loading stuff on this Windows already.
Since my sticker says Win 7 Home Premium, I should select 7 H.P. to load.

Yup.Guess I have to burn a new one
Run eicfg removal tool, browse to the iso. It is almost instant.
Then burn it to dvd.
When you boot it, you will get to select the edition.
Highlight the edition you have a key for, then click Next

I wondered why it skipped that. Thanks a lot.
Should I enter Pr Key on install right away?
Wow, takes a whole 3 seconds to run the eicfg removal.

Not necessary. The first windows that pops up select Install Now. The edition selection screen ( pictured above ) appears after that . later on it asks if you want to input your key - or you can select skip and enter it after installation is complete. You have 30 days to enter the key.Should I enter Pr Key on install right away?

Wow, just noticed that there's HP over the barcode on the Prod Key sticker. Will that block putting it on Toshiba?
