Hi, I downloaded this when it came out, I now want to reinstall windows 7, but I cant find where to download it from. I tried this http://store.digitalriver.com/DRHM/servlet/ControllerServlet?Action=AddItemToRequisition&SiteID=msshus&Locale=en_US&productID=161679100&quantity=1&resid=0VWK3AoBAkcAAAmvi1EAAAAF&rests=1262638353857 But it doesnt recognise me as a returning customer.

Ideas?

Have you purchased this?
Are you in the US? the site you give is for the US in order to use it you must fill in suitably
Also if buying in the US one needs a VPN within the US if outside the country

A Retail disc works with the Student Upgrade. I used it at home - saved me the hassle of the stupid download and unpacking malarky. [this was before Digital River released an .iso].
