Dear users, Once again I come to your aid... Recently I bought a little Netbook for school use, it is a HP Mini 210 - 1050nr... It comes standart with Windows 7... As far as I understand, it comes with SLIC 2.1 therefore it should be compatible with any other Windows 7 software, however I have a question... which certificate and KEY should I use if I want to install the Windows 7 HOME or Ultimate in my Netbook... Help anyone?
I would upgrade it to Home edition cause Ultimate is just overkill as you won't get all the features cause the hardware you have won't support it...
timesurfer, WOW ill try that.... Ill report later on if it works! Smorgan, Ya.. I think ultimate might be too much... for me home premium would be enough.. i just want to be able to change desktop background and such. Thank you all!
COOL!! It works.. took about 20 minutes for update... I just wonder if it will pass kb971033, well I guess if it doesnt ill just use some Compaq HP key! Never thought it would be THAT easy i thought that i would have to re-install the whole windows 7 system! Thank you!
As it has SLIC 2.1 in bios, it will surely pass the WAT update...... and remember that product keys aren't brand-specific but they are edition-specific....
Ah! I see I had a problem with a Dell Optiplex 755, and the kb971033 blocked it, funny is that I used the modded bios from here and used an OEM key, thats why I was afraid... Can you imagine if I get the "your windows is not genuine" in the middle of the classroom? LOL... But well, everything is fine now! Indeed! Well, I guess I cannot change the keys now... It does not give me the option to "enter a new key" so I guess ill have to wait! thank you! Yes it is! and working beautifully, and thanks god I can change my desktop background!
