I need to put a new HD in my computer and while I would liike to upgrade to 7 i don't want to put much money into this computer but my question is, now that XP is not supported is it still possible to install windows from an oem key? I have the sticker on my computer with the key.

hhmm well windows 7 is also not being sold by microsoft.(some 2rd party do still sell them) so unless you want windows 8. the upgrade path is limited. just buy a win 7 home premium..much better.

Yeah but then i'd have to spend 100 bucks on a 6 year old computer.

question is are you sure your not gonna use it in the coming years? when win 10 comes out are you gonna change os right away?? even though at that start there;s limited software for it?
