 EDIT: Just checked the site. It's fine to go from XP but just a little more complicated. Last edited by chigley; 14-10-09 at 09:46 PM.. | |

| I can't see anything on the site about installing from scratch, only upgrading. I have preordered home premiunm for £45 from Dixons see but would much rather save money using this offer. |

| Right...so would I actually need to have XP installed though? I'm just wondering whether to cancel the preorder from Dixons and buy this instead. |

| Is it all good to use someone else's email address? I didn't go Uni and I'm getting fed up of everyone hyping this thing up, I wanna be on the hype train! |

Promotion Eligibility: This offer is good only to eligible students and staff who attend or are employed at an educational institution geographically located in the United Kingdom, Jersey, Guernsey or the Isle of Man. This offer is non-transferable. One of either Windows 7 Home Premium Upgrade or Windows 7 Professional Upgrade may be purchased per eligible student or member of staff (but not required). So it's basically saying that you have to be a member of staff or student to buy the key, but it can pretty much be used by whoever. It doesn't say anything about who is using it. Microsoft aren't going to follow up any of the orders anyway. Last edited by Jake; 25-10-09 at 12:16 PM.. | |
