    To not confuse you further I have the same OS like you, so you have to do the following: boot with Windows 7 DVD and when you have to choose the partition where to install Windows 7 Ultimate, just delete all partitions (backup data if necessary) and re-create them and format then continue with installation and use DaZ Loader to activate. ;)

    L.E. after Tito's post: I bought a brand new laptop HP Pavilion dm4 and I simply booted the laptop with the Windows DVD and followed the steps described above and it worked like a charm. ;)

    He must boot his installation media as non-UEFI thus he can partition in MBR style.

    ;) :D

    Just to confuse things further, that HP pavilion dm4 likely had a slic table provided by bios, in which case the Daz loader app would detect that and install just the needed cert + serial, but not the actual boot loader, and everything would work like a charm, without mbr vs gpt disk concerns.
