Could not install upgrade from Win7 RC to Win7 Home Premium from within Win7 RC...had to do a clean install.
You need to edit one file to do that.
Can you expound or provide a link?

Thanks

I have been running windows 7 sense it was released to RTM. I installed it fresh with no upgrade. As soon as it was announced i pre-ordered the $30 windows 7 for college students.(as all you know its an upgrade only copy) I got my key today and put it into windows (same installation i have been running for a few months) and it activated just fine! no upgrade or double install needed..

A VLK upgrade? That seems odd.
Yeah, I agree. Every MS version that was VLK that I've dealt with has been a clean install, never a VLK upgrade.

There is a Windows 7 PRO Upgrade VLK disc. I know because I just bought one. I downloaded the iso from eopen and burned it to disc.

It is not bootable I cannot boot from this disc and I am pissed off.

You need an SSD to break 5.9. Even my 10k RPM Raptor only scores a 5.9.
My RAID10 array scored a 6.1 so that isn't quite true. The disks aren't raptors either.

RAID10 rawks!

It looks like if the disk subsystem has good 4k block I/O, the results will be higher than 5.9.
