    You need a key to install Win7. Buy an Upgrade version and then Clean Install Windows 7 deleting all partitions during install.

    In the Reinstall tutorial in my signagure below are tips and tools that will assure you get and keep a perfect install. They'll help you avoid mistakes like using AVG bloatware ten years after techies stopped messing with it.
