How to install Win 7 Ultimate 64bit?

Last response: in Windows 7
Share

I bought a new Desktop PC and it has the win 7 30 day trial.

I need to install my Win 7 ultimate 64bit to my PC, deleting the 30 day trial. ( I need to know how to start the setup when the PC is booting up, most importantly)

Please give me a step by step instruction (no video please, my internet connection is really slow)

My PC specs :

Intel Core i3 3220 3.3Ghz (3rd Generation)
Asus Geforce GTX 660 2GB DDR5 DirectCUII
Gigabyte GA-B75M-D3H
Corsair 8GB (2x4GB) Vengeance 1600 Mhz

Thank you.

Are you sure the version installed on the PC is a trial -- or does it just needs to be activated within the 30 days by running the activation wizard ?? Does it have the product key sticker attached to the case ? (windows is normally not installed as a trial program on new builds !)

First: make sure you have all the gigabyte drivers on hand before you start!
Next: put the dvd in and start from that. At the point where the setup wants you to choose a partition for the setup, click on the advanced option, delete the c: partition and install to the space freed up.

Is it the same version as the software you have the product key for ?? -- If it is then no need to reinstall just run the activation wizard and when activation fails select to change the key - enter your key and run the activation again and it should activate.

Could you be more specific, please :) 

There's something I should select 1st to boot from CD/DVD right?

And for what should I keep all the Gigabyte drivers with me?

Thanks.

Nope, they have installed Windows 7 Enterprise trial

I need to install my original Ultimate deleting the Home basic edition :) 

I'm sorry if I mislead you.
