Upgrading Help? - Jake - 2013-12-13 12:06

I'm planning on upgrading from XP to 7 but don't want to spend the £100+ from PC world etc. So just wondering if a OEM version will be okay?? Link below.

Windows 7 Version

I think the OEM version is more for if you're building the computer yourself, you won't get any help off Windows or warranty or something, I can't remember now. But it should be fine afaik.

I don't want to crack it due to people i know having it go wrong, id rather be safe then sorry and would i have to delete everything on my HD including my OS to install it?

I got new harddrive in my laptop and no cd found to installation for win 7 so i did choose cracked and i have only music and videos on it so its safe.
