    Specs:
    HP Pavilion dv7-1448dx Notebook
    Windows Vista x64 Home Premium
    Using HP Upgrade Assistant

    Info HERE. And info used to install HERE. Read them both.

    So I've been wondering, how come it doesn't work? The first "HERE" explains what is going on, so plz read it, and the instructions that I used are in the second "HERE", which you don't need to read if you already know how to use the HP Upgrade Assistant. I have also tried it without the upgrade assistant, which doesn't work.

    Never upgrade, its asking for trouble. Always do a clean install.

    Hrm. That will totally piss off my parents, they will make me reinstall their 20+ programs and my 10+ programs, and all the programs that came preinstalled on the computer cause my bro is a media freak, and I will need to pay for a new Microsoft Office subscription cause of them, even though Microsoft Works is fine... I wont do it unless there is another solution... And until my piece of crap antivirus expires in December so I can squeeze the most outta it...
