So windows 7 E preorders for the uk start tommorow. Do any one know if the delivery is free from microsofts store. If not what shops online ship it free.

Does anyone know with certainty (I'll accept rumor just identify it as rumor) If retail copy's of home premium will be available for multiple PC's.Hopefully with some pre order action i dont want to upgrade any of my ENORMOUS oem vista installations i would much rather re install every...

It has been widely reported that in Europe the pre-order version of Windows7 E will be a full version. However, according to the FAQ posted by Microsoft UK Link Removed So it seems that the "Full Version" isn't a complete stand alone full version, you must have a prior copy of XP or Vista...

Hi everyone, Some of you may know this already but I just thought I would share my knowledge I learned from M$. I recently preordered windows 7 and could not find anywhere where to choose between 32 bit and 64 bit. I called MS and they confirmed to me that if you are downloading it you will be...

I just copied this from a Microsoft site. They call the pre-order editions Win 7 E:- Before you install an E edition of Windows 7, please visit windows.microsoft.com/install-windows-E for important information. When you install the E edition of Windows 7, you'll need to do a custom (clean)...

Ok, so we all know about Microsoft giving us alot of money off windows 7 if we pre-order....But, does the home premium come with 64bit? it says in the description it coems with 64 bit which confuses me lol sry for sounding lik a moron ¬_¬ Link Removed

If you look at the Windows 7 pre-order offer, you'll see that the £ price is MUCH more than the $ price. This is OUTRAGEOUS.

Well, I'm loving the stability and amzing performance increases I've had the pleasure of enjoying .. especially in games and media center. Heck even mundane tasks .. not to mention all the other great features in Windows 7! So basically I have a fairly simple question .. but for some reason it...

Used to have Vista Home Premium on my PC (no install disks) but after several Windows 7 installs Vista got overwritten, so I no longer have any 'proof of Vista' ownership. MS is offering 50% discounts on upgrade preorders ($99 for Windows 7 Pro), but I suspect I am SOL (i.e. will have to buy...

I have received the email offer from Microsoft to pre-order 7 for half off. Unfortunately I read that if you have XP you have to install the upgrade on the same partition as XP. That's not a clean install to me. Does anyone know if that means I'm going to have a dual boot setup or what? With...

I was thinking on pre-ordering Windows 7 Pro on MS store web site today, but I would like the 64 bit version. Does anyone know if you need to specify 32 bit or 64 bit when ordering or is it a one version and when installing is where you choose the 32 or 64 bit. Sniffles
