Windows 7 upgrade
Hi, I, Old Lars. New to the forum and have a really simple question.
I have a Dell XPS 8300 running Windows 7 Home 64 bit and would like to upgrade either to 7 Pro or ultimate. The owner of my local independent computer store says I must back up all my files and do a "clean" install (essentially wiping the HD and install the new OS from scratch. I was under the impression that I could just purchase an upgrade CD (or even download the upgrade), install it and be done. Is my local PC guy BS'ing me?
Thanks in advance.
