Hi
Could I ask for some advice please?
I have an Acer laptop with Windows 7 Home Premium 64bit preinstalled, presumably an OEM version. However, I have a legitimate Windows 7 Ultimate retail version DVD (also 64bit) and product key. How can I upgrade the original OS to Ultimate retail? Can I just install the retail version over the OEM and put in my new product key? I do not want to do a clean install as I would rather keep all the installed drivers etc and not have to download and reinstall them. I also don't want to have to buy an Anytime Upgrade as well.
Any advice please?
TIA
