    Hi!

    I would like to ask this, (sorry for my english btw)
    I have a MSDN AA account, but right now it only allows me to download windows 7 professional in english. (And of course I get an original key with it!)
    So my question is, can I get the official spanish version of windows 7 professional from "other sources" and still be able to use my original key from the MSDN AA account even though the key was supposed to be used in an "english" version? Will it work? Has anyone already tried it?

    thanks in advance!

    you can use official language pack to change to any language.

    for ultimte version, I guess you may need to wait till Oct 22nd with your MSDN AA.

    question

    but as far as I know, the language pack will only work with a ultimate version of windows, not in the professional version. Am I wrong?

    Thanks in advance!

    Yes, you can use your MSDN-AA product key in regards to downloading other language versions of Windows 7.

    The Spanish version of Windows 7 (through MSDN/Technet along with other languages) is available for download.

    Don't wait 'til Oct. 22nd...

    GOOD LUCK!

    :)
