Anyway, I'm editing my windows 7 upgrade profile. Setting my billing address is making me wanting to whack someone at dell. At address line 2, I can't put in my address! It keep saying "Invalid Billing Address Line 2". Then where the hell am I supposed to type my Jalan?
*
this one cannot help u...
have not encountered problem like this when i registered
u can try at dell studio thread i remember there are quite a few who successfully registered

Hi sordanny, can I ask whether the Windows 7 upgrade is limited to only the brands listed above. Are other brands such as BenQ or MSI available??
I will be buying a netbook this weekend, most probably the BenQ model.. Can I get the upgrade??
*
According to BenQ Msia website the only model eligible is only S42...

(edited to include in first page)
Anyway netbooks mostly run on Win XP, so if u would want to install Windows 7 u would have to buy a Win7 DVD

hi does anyone know how long it takes for them to verify and update the proof of purchase

i submitted the upgrade form online (via HP AP) last friday and emailed them the proof of purchse. Till today when i check the status it still says proof of purchase pending.
*
ya i've heard HP require u to provide them a proof of purchase that's a total pain in the arse
call them and talk to their manager to follow up your case, because chances are your email did not reach them/did not reach the correct person

for hp, the free upgrade is handled by this company mentormediacorp in sg.
i emailed them again, 2 days back to ask whether they received the proof of purchase i emailed them last week.

the auto-responder replied saying they will get back to me in 3 working days.
dont feel like calling all the way to sg for this, already this "free" upgrade i need to pay 19.99 usd, dont want to add more expense biggrin.gif
*
actually for ASEAN countries the upgrade is handled by mentor media corp no matter the brand/model
they are some sort of agent that works for Microsoft

hello..i purchased the Microsoft Windows Vista Upgradeable..can someone tell me the steps i have to take to get the windows 7?
*
First of all, what have u bought?
Is it bundled with a laptop or a standalone copy?

The upgrade is easy u just need to have your credit card ready, follow the online instructions and key in details then Microsoft will mail the DVD kit out to the address u provide. The Vista->7 upgrade websites of major manufacturers are listed on the first page

The built-in recovery should still be Windows Vista, unless the upgrade kit have an utility to upgrade the recovery partition.

does Acer have that utility to upgrade the recovery partition?
