    Unless you are a student in the UK you wouldn't be eligible to use the software AFAIK

    Great deal.. I've used them before(irish site) and never had any probs, used the download version and the disc version(arrived day after order).. Have recommended before.. The Win 7 Upgrade can be used to do a clean install..

    If one has Vista Home Premium installed, would I have to back up everything on my pc. Stick disc in (I don't want to download and 32bit ok)and Windows 7 will be installed ? All done ?

    I am not techie so don't start on partition files etc.

    If you're moving between 32 bit and 64bit- yes, you definitely would.
    Otherwise- probably not. I say probably- because there are always those weird cases where people decide to accidentally hit a button to reformat a partition without intending to do so etc- its impossible to definitively say yes or no- its always better to back up your information one way or the other.

    You cannot do a clean install from this straight away. The Key is an upgrade key. You can only do a clean install after upgrade key has been activated.

    Also changing from 32 bit to 64 or vice versa will not work as you will have to do a clean install to change over.

    The actual upgrade takes about 5 minutes and has to be done via the control panel. All you do is type in you upgrade key when prompted and windows is upgraded after a few downloads without using the DVD.
