Thank you for the reply, after I downloaded the ISO file and burned it to a DVD, I tried to upgrade another laptop by running the Setup file off the DVD while it was already running Windows 8.1 (I didn't boot off the DVD) and it wanted the activation key and I couldn't skip the step (I thought since it was already running Windows 8.1 it could see that it was a valid install). Then I tried to run the upgrade using the Windows update icon in the lower right of the task bar and the installation failed, 3 times, I didn't write it down, but it said something about the download folder couldn't initialize or something. Maybe I'll try booting the laptop off the DVD and see if it's any different.
