So i just installed Windows 7 which i purchased from Microsoft's Ultimate Steal promotion for college students but i have bumped into a problem while trying to activate the software, as i bought the "upgrade version" which is the only version the ultimate steal offers i might add, when i try to activate it with the Product Key it says the Key is not valid, i immediately thought it was because im using an update version and not the retail version but if that is indeed the case how is it possible to do a clean install to your mac if you need XP or Vista already installed?, if i have to buy XP to install then upgrade to Windows 7 that will be very annoying unless im missing something?, anyway im just wondering if there is a way round activating my software?
thanks in advance!
