clean install without voiding my product key
A year ago I bought an HP with factory installed 64 bit vista. I had nothing but problems with it. When 7 came out I ordered an upgrade copy. After doing an upgade install not only did some problems remain but I got even more. Over the past 3 months I've spent so many hours on the phone with tech support it adds up to between 2+3 days. I've let them take over my computer at least a dozen times with no help. I reinstalled the upgrade no help.They finally told me to do a clean install,that didn't help either. Now I want to do a clean install on a new hard drive so I don't have to deal with any scrap of vista still left. How can I do that without voiding my product key?
