im building a pc and i want to know something.
its my first pc i built myself, and i never had a full version of any windows because of it. but i do have a hp disc, but i dont know if it will activate on the new computer. im asking this because i can get a windows 7 upgrade far cheaper than i can get it for new.
dose the xp installation need to be activated to work? or can i just install xp, than install windows 7 upgrade over it with little to no problem?
