Windows 7 Windows 7 Evaluation Copy Build 7100 upgrade to Pro possible?

[guannyeuc]

Hey guys,

I have the Windows 7 Evaluation copy installed right now on my computer and it's telling me that it's already expiring... i actually put the date on my computer back so i have a few more days to spare... a few questions now...

1. What happens when it's expired? Will I not be able to turn on my computer?

2. Is it possible in any way to upgrade from Windows 7 Ultimate Evaluation to Windows 7 Professional without needing to wipe out all my programs and data from C: drive?

Thanks!

You've got about 15 days to make the switch,
Is it possible to upgrade to the RTM, back not recommended.

Personally, I'd backup all my files and programs, and do a clean install.
