Windows 7 Home Premium Upgrad or will i need to buy the full win 7 and im replacing the old mobo because it died any help would be nice thanks
 
I would say if it is a replacement mobo for a broken computer, you are not breaching the EULA term so you can continue using the Vista and upgrad to Window 7. You may need to contact Microsoft for a successful activation due to hardware change.
