Window 7 upgrade problem in Mexico
I am currently running Win 7 Home Premium (OEM) on a Toshiba T135. I would like to upgrade to Professional or Ultimate only for the language pack for English. I live in Mexico, the Toshiba was manufactured for the Latin American Market. I opened Windows Anytime Upgrade, and was informed that the upgrade option was not available in my area and to see a local dealer. Big problem, no local dealer has a boxed upgrade or download available.
I went to Microsoft US asking for help, bascially the reply was "sorry". Of course my IP address shows "Mexico" , even tho' I have a US billing and mailing address, this stops me from downloading from Microsoft.
Does anyone have a suggestion for a work around, short of carrying the laptop to the US?
Thanks in advance for your help. I looked in the forum to see if anyone else had this problem and did not find it. If I missed it, please accept my apologies.
