Windows 7 or 8 upgrade question for new system?
For a brand new system build.
1) Do you need to install a previous Windows version first or
2) Can you clean install directly from the upgrade DVD and just enter the serial number of your older version as proof of ownership?
Thanks for all answers, I've since installed Windows 8.1, I didn't bother with the upgrade, went with the 8.1 full copy, I had too many uncertainties and the price difference was acceptable.
