    Seen as people always recommend using software for students to get windows, How do i do the clean install without owning a previous version of windows?
    thanks for any help

    First of, I doubt S0ftware4students do the full version Windows as opposed to an upgrade version

    If you do get the right Version though..go into your BIOS and change boot priority to CD/DVD drive. Insert the DVD and roboot system.
    from here on its more or else follow onscreen prompts.
    Assuming you have all data backed up (and not on board HD) then just select a partition and install

    Do a quick google search, theres multiple methods that allow this.

    Easiest seems to be to just install the upgrade version twice?

    edit: ahh, What the poster above said:D
