Bioran Posted June 26, 2009 Share Posted June 26, 2009 I don't see why you can't. At the least you should be able to perform a clean install using the upgrade disk. ~ Bioran Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ramik Posted June 26, 2009 Share Posted June 26, 2009 I'm pretty sure you are eligable. on what basis is this measured? is it only logically no correct but can be done (installs ok, activates ok), or later they will detect copy as not genuine? I have a free MSDN Academic license of vista business (while i was still graduate university student a couple of years ago), now i am no more student but my vista is still there running, is it eligible for upgrade to Windows 7 Home Premium ??
