Click on buy. You have to be a student and have a valid student email.


You can also get Win7 for free if you University participates in MSDN Academic Alliance. Check micro$oft website for more info.

Windows 7 is great. the only thing i dont like is it does not have Classic Menu Style. Though it is possible to have Classic Menu by installing CSMenu.Exe file.

I hope Microsoft will add the option to go Classic in Service Pack 1.

i luv win7.

How to install Windows 7 !!!!! Tell me please

Amricane---- Are you trying to Upgrade  XP,VISTA to Win 7 or ?

daka brother its my Vista : as i bought laptop which is upgradable for win 7 , i will get free win 7 but best buy is asking 34 bucks to install it . and i don't wanna pay them..

There should be instruction inside the cd case,or click on upgrade as far i am concerned there should be something that should say upgrade to win7. insert the disc, click on upgrade. put in the key. and I think it should work. It worked for me. Didnt pay 34 dollars. I dont know if it is better than vista or not, it will take time to decide on that. hope this is good version. 

1. Insert your Windows 7 DVD in the optical (CD/DVD) drive. Click Install Now option once you see the screen. If you have disabled autorun, open the root of the DVD drive (Windows 7 DVD) and run setup.exe file.

2.  Once you run the setup, you will see two options:

* Check compatibility online

* Install Now

3. In the next screen, you will see two options:

* Go online to get the latest update for installation

* Do not get the latest updates for installation

If you have the latest version of Windows 7, then you need not to check for updates. You can select Do not check for updates if you wish to check for updates post upgrade process.

4. Accept the license agreement (I accept the license agreement) and click Next to continue the procedure.

5. In the next screen again you will see two options:

* Upgrade

* Custom

Here you need to select Upgrade option to upgrade from Windows Vista to Windows 7. Click Next.

6. Once again, Windows will check for the compatibility and will generate the report. If Windows finds any compatibility problems, it will display the problem and will save the report to the desktop. If no incompatibilities are found, Windows 7 Setup will proceed without further interaction

From here onwards, you need to follow the default Windows Installation Procedure

Note

If you're running a 32-bit version of Windows Vista, you can only upgrade to a 32-bit version of Windows 7. Similarly, if you are running a 64-bit version of Windows Vista, you can only upgrade to a 64-bit version of Windows 7. Otherwise, you'll need to use the Custom option to install Windows 7.

Both 32-bit and 64-bit installation discs are included in the Windows 7 package. 64-bit operating systems can handle large amounts of memory—typically 4 gigabytes (GB) of random access memory (RAM) or more—more efficiently than 32-bit operating systems. However, not all computers are 64-bit capable.

To find out which Windows 7 installation disc you can use, do the following:

Hope this help

 

thanks brother., i will get it try and let u know about the further detail. thanks again

Windows 7 is way better than Vista....
Actually Vista sucks big time....

Windows 7 is great.
I got one from MSDN Academic Alliance for free.
It is faster than Vista but little bit slower than XP.

_nepali What you have to do to get from MSDN Academic Alliance.

I went the site and loged in using my hotmail ID, but i couldn't find a link for download or anyother things.

Tamangkhola, bro you should have given more infos. Where and how to get on that price?. साथीहरुलाई २९ मा पाए भनेर जिल्याउने कुरा गर्या हो कि क्याहो ?

Usually, those 29.99 price is just a upgrade price. And this is not a market price where u buy in retail stores. It can be bought in that price online, Maybe?....I am not sure. But chcek your college Computer stores or their online Software download sites. They are always cheap, and is only given to students. I usually find someone to get one for me from the college. I just found out that UTA is selling for 34.99 to their students. Also, As _Nepali has mentioned you can get DVD or download online for free if ur college participates on MSDN Academic Alliance programme. North Lake College participates on this programme and I found out that they usually give a DVD to take home and install. This is the location information @ T225 building.

Guys, can u share ur experinece during the Upgrade as lady from North Lake COllege warned me --- Now I am thinking whether to do upgrade or not. Basically she told me to keep all the backups of documents and even my others programmes and software too. I thought this is just a upgrade process, not a new installation, so it shouldn't interfer with all things that I alreday have in my computer.

I was one of the  Windows 7(R) House party winner and got the merchandise way before it was released to the world. (Received on Oct 18) The package included 1 signature edition of  Windows 7(R)  and other party decorative stuffs. But, I'm a Mac User! I gave it to one of my friend and he says its awesome.

 

 

haha i got it for free from my college a month ago... apprently microsoft has some sort of deal with my college so we get it for free before it was out for public. but i had to wait for HP to get driver for windows 7. had to wait for almost a month for some drivers from HP  but it was worth it
