    Use the correct key, that is all

    Maybe re-read first post would help?

    Sebus thanks, but I do not think I mentioned to try to use one of the keys to the first post but only with a window that says I can not use a key volume in a evaluation version, you've tried?

    Take the part of the code that is not "XXX'ed out" and do a google search with it.

    Sorry if I sound stupid asking these questions:
    1: Is this legal?
    2: Can WES 7 be used as a regular OS? I have a laptop that has Vista on it and I want to upgrade.

    I do have a student account on MSDN.

    1. Of course using Windows Embedded Standard 7 is legal.
    2. It's up to you to use it as regular Operating System but you won't be able to get the full functional Windows 7. If you have a MSDNAA / DreakSpark access why don't you use the Windows 7 your desired edition? Why would you opt for Embedded 7?

    I only have the regular DreamSpark account so I can't have the "premium" stuff such as Windows 7. I'm only using it for browsing the web, opening pdfs, some word processing, etc.

    hi there,
    I have been trying to get the windows 7 embedded to install into a VHD like Win 7 pro/ultimate and win 8 allow but am unable to boot from it. The installation works fine but thereafter it just doesn't reboot.
    Any ideas as to what is missing in the Win 7 Embedded that stops it from booting which is present in Win 7 ultimate and lets it boot from a VHD.
    Your help would be great.
    Cheers....
