    Upgrade disk content

    This my first time to upgrade if I still do... What happens to the Key from the previous OS? I thought that the Upgrade disk uses that Key and just load the upgraded OS from the disk. Am I still right to say that you can install any version of Win 7 from a Full/Retail/OEM disk as long as you...

This PC is for downloading and miscellaneous maintenance on my main Tower with little care to have RAID on this computer.
