| 1406713 | 2015-08-15 23:53:00 | Hi Guys, I want to upgrade my nice acer one 522 to an ssd and get to use all my 4GB ram by upgrading win 7 starter. Is there an economical way of doing it ? The win 7 product key purchase has me a bit puzzled, surely I don't need to shell out over a $100 for a legit one ? ( I don't want 8 or 10 :) cheers for any suggestions Pete |

Are you buying from Microsoft store? store.microsoft.com What we want is Windows 7 product key. search for "Windows 7 product key" WYSIWYG - what you see is Windows 10. Win 10 is "unproprietary, images bigger than text" interface. Its like calling the "Start button" something other than the words "Start" I personally tend to avoid anything (purportedly) higher-version than Windows 7.

| 1406720 | 2015-08-16 04:07:00 | You'll have to install another version if you want 4 or 8 gb anyway. I think Win10 Home only supports up to 4 GB Probably better if you upgrade to Win10 from 7 starter. |

| 1406722 | 2015-08-16 04:23:00 | You'll run into problems. search for "Windows 7 product key"By searching to Product keys all you'll get is pirated /illegal keys, you WONT get any legit keys. Windows 7 Starter will only allow 2GB Memory. Its also only 32-Bit, so even doing a upgrade to W10 Home for free you'll only get a 32-Bit Version. The maximum amount of Memory it will take is 4GB. |
