    Daz,
    Thanks for all the great info and links!

    Forgive me for asking you to clarify on a question posed earlier in the thread....

    I have my sister's Windows 7 disk which is currently installed on her computer. Can I just install using her disc on the new drive I plan to install in my laptop and then refer to the provided link for an OEM non retail key to enter during installation? OR

    Should I install Windows 7 with that disk and then run the boot loader? OR

    Must I download the provided Windows 7 image, install, skip entering key (checking box) and then run boot loader (necessitating a clean install (see below).

    I'm just trying to do this in the least amount of steps.

    I am currently running XP on a DellXPS M1210 with 2GB RAM and only 80GB hard drive. I do have the Windows Vista Upgrade disc from Dell that came with system, just never installed it. I am installing a new Seagate 320 GB internal drive to overcome the limits of the original small hard drive and install Windows 7. As is, there's no room to add windows 7. The upgrade advisor says the only conflicts are with Broadcam Management Programs (currently researching if updated drivers for 7 exist, or if I can just delete it as I have Intel Wireless pro also installed).....still confused there but will figure it out.

    As I understand it, I could ghost (copy the image of) my current drive to the new one, install the Vista upgrade to the new drive, then install the Windows 7 upgrade (per whatever method you approve above) and avoid doing an entire clean install. Is this true, or will having a prior validated XP and Vista installs under a different Key(s) make it somehow necessary for me to do an entirely clean install the of Windows 7 under any of the above circumstances?

    Thanks for your assistance!

    1- Is there any other method to crack Window$ 7 Enterprise? I get the highlighted message that it's not supported. I used to use Auto KMS but I think that is not working now - correct me if I am wrong.

    2- If all fails for me, can I change the OS type to some other than can be supported by Loader?

    3- Which version of Windows 7 is now the best for cracking?

    Thanks

    I just got a Lenovo Y510p with Windows 8 and I wish to downgrade to 7 with these instructions. However, when I get to the step where I choose a drive, I am unable to use any of them because all of the disks "are of the GPT partition style." Does this mean I have to format the partition(s)? And do I choose the HDD when I install?
    Also, I just read ahead when I got to this snag, and I noticed the step with the activation key. I'm using the iso from the 64-bit torrent and the installation media was put on a USB drive with the Windows 7 USB/DVD Tool. Since it seems like I'll need Windows Loader by Daz, what is the best way to put it on the USB drive without disturbing the installation media?
