Hi there, was hoping to buy windows 7 from http://www.software4students.co.uk/

particularly this one

http://www.software4students.co.uk/Microsoft_Windows_7_Professional_64_bit_Upgrade_Edition-details.aspx

however ive just read that as they are upgrade editions i require a valid version of windows already installed on my computer... i am currently on windows xp pro, it is a custom version i downloaded a while back which has been stripped of stuff you dont need to make it run faster and does not require a product key. basically i was wondering what will happen if i do try to install using the windows 7 of this website as its £38 rather than over £100.
(ive checked the website out my friends have bought stuff from the website too and its all legit)

thanks for your help.

1. OcUK do not allow competitors links on their site.
2. You cannot download XP Pro.
3. You still need a product key, wither is a COA or Retail, Ie OEM or retail.
If that is a iffy copy of XP Pro, then installing a copy of Win 7, will not work.
