In place upgrade on Toshiba laptop
Hi I've been reading threads for hours on Windows 7 installs but I can't find a specific answer for my scenario.
I am looking at buying a couple of Toshiba laptops that have a pre-installed version of Windows 7 Home Premium. I already own a Microsoft Action Pack which gives me 10 Windows 7 Professional licences. I want to be able to upgrade the OS on the laptops from the Home Edition to the Professional Edition. Because the laptops are already setup with all the toshiba software drivers etc installed I am reluctant to do a clean install. Is it possible to use the product key from my Action Pack to upgrade the laptops without having to wipe them and start again?
I'm not concerned about loosing the home premium licence I just want to upgrade to Professional Edition with minimum fuss.
I hope someone can help clarify this. Thanks.
