    So I purchased 24gb if Memory only to find out that my Legit version of Windows 7 Home Premium only supports up to 16gb... annoying! So I want to upgrade to Windows 7 Professional or Ultimate... Was wondering how I could upgrade while keeping all my files and programs, also, Id have to use an activator correct? I have a CyberPowerPC custom built computer that came with Windows 7 Home Premium.

    Do I just pop in the Professional/Ultimate disk and hit upgrade? Then use activator? or is there a different method

    I would install the loader first then do windows anytime upgrade and paste in Professional or Ultimate oem:slp key it will then update your system.
