Hey guys, just a quick question.

The other day I ordered Windows 7 Professional 64bit Upgrade version. I didn't notice until the next day that I infact got the "Upgrade" version, rather than the "Full". Reason I got the Upgrade, was the fact it was £30 from Microsoft (the deal for Students).

Am I able to still do a clean install from this disc? I briefly read up on it and it said you could, but I'm just making sure. :D

Thanks

See the link below on how to do a clean install, using a upgrade copy, and it's legal.

Clicked your link 3 times. It's broken.

@OP: Yes it is legal as long as you have an older copy of Windows already. It's possible either way. Here is a guide:

robin's link may be better though, once he fixes it. :)
