OK, I get you now. :D
If you DO install XP first, then upgrade to Windows 7, DO NOT ACTIVATE THE XP if you are using a Key from someone else!
You can install XP with someone elses key, then run the upgrade to 7, XP does not need to be activated.
Yeah, I meant do a 7 install with no key, then a 7 'upgrade'.Quote:

I made the mistake of trying to use Server RAM (Registered RAM).Quote:

Meet me in chat to try and sort this out. :)
