So has anyone actually upgraded from Windows 7 RC 32bit to Windows 7 Home Preimum? If so, how?
This is the error I get:
---------------------------
Windows Setup
---------------------------
This installation disc isn’t compatible with your version of Windows. To upgrade, you need the correct installation disc. For more information, check your computer’s system information. To install a new copy of Windows, restart (boot) your computer using the installation disc, and then select Custom (advanced).

OK

I feel like I am in a catch 22. I can't upgrade off my Windows 7, and if I boot installation then I would my product key input wouldn't work. So I have to re-install Vista and then upgrade windows 7.
Im sure the forumn has been littered with these today but I didnt see any helpful ones. I use Vista 32 I bought the W7 64. Digitalriver is the online company I purchased the product from they claimed you would be able to do a clean install loosing all previous information, which Im fine with. However they sent only an exe which a 32 bit system cannot open with out a disk. To make matters worse they did not include an ISO so you could burn it to a Disk. Any solutions as to making an ISO?
I've gotten everything to work and burned the .iso to a dvd. When i boot from the dvd it goes into the Starting Windows thing and loads and all, but when I get to the part with the blue and green background (where you can see your mouse for the first time) nothing ever loads. I can move my mouse around so I know my computer isn't freezing, but no menus or anythign come up.
Does anyone know have any idea what is causing this problem?
ANy one able to tell me how to first establish the ISO???
Yeah but it just save in the folder or what I followed the first post and it uploaded but I couldnt find it any where?????
