Hello, a few days ago I had a computer problem that forced me to re-install Windows. I've been wanting to upgrade to Windows 7 64-bit (from 32-bit) for a while now, and what better time to do it than now that I have my data saved. Also, I would like to upgrade to a bigger Hard Drive, seeing as how I have to install the new Windows, why not?
My questions are:
- I built my computer myself buying the individual parts, and I bought Windows Vista 32-bit and it says "OEM System Builder Pack - Intended for system builders ONLY." How does that differ from the other Windows, and would I have to buy the Windows 7 64-bit one that also specifies for "System Builders only?"
- And, probably not, but better be safe... Upgrading to the new Windows and replacing my Hard Drive, would I have to check any other piece of hardware in my computer, or can I just put in the new Hard Drive, install the new Windows, and go?
Thanks in advance
