[QUOTE="ganapatiom, post: 1485564, member: 289521"] I have just received my new iMac 27" and am in the process of moving everything over from my 2006 MBP which ran on Snow Leopard and Vista (32-bit) in boot camp. I understand that Mountain Lion doesn't like 32-bit Windows, and I don't mind upgrading, but I'm trying not to spend more that the $40 for the upgrade from Vista to 8. Is there anyway to get Windows 8 on my new system using an upgrade? I do have an external optical drive. I have used a roommate's copy of Windows 7 just to test out boot camp, and have that running, but for no more that 30 days. I have the install disk for my copy of Vista, but if I try to install it, I can't move the curser to complete the install. Any ideas? [/QUOTE]
