Installation of this product went smoothly however upon completion some of the features did not work. Getting the service updates from Microsoft took an exceedingly long time (however I found that that is a common complaint with Win 7). After down loading 200+ updates from Microsoft most of them failed to install. Since the installation of the OS was problematic, the update installs failed and since I had not yet entered the license key I decided to start over and make a new clean install. Instead of installing from the provided disk, I installed from a retail copy of Win 7 Pro that I already had. Installation went much better, everything seemed to work and all of the updates (except about 8 for .net) installed successfully. After a few days of testing to make sure that everything was working satisfactorily, I activated the OS using the license key provided with the package. The OS activated successfully and while I'm still searching for a few driver updates from component manufacturers instead of using the MS drivers everything is working great!Read full review

I have an older Dell workstation laptop which was well worth keeping in service and wanted to install Windows 7 Professional. This product was shipped quickly, and so I got started. You will want to do a little web knowledge research beforehand. Be sure to use Microsoft's install tool to transfer your data files to an external storage device. One thing to note- is that while the friendly Microsoft lady says the upgrade will take a couple of hours, don't count on it. I think from start to finish, my upgrade was close to 6 hours, mostly because the data transfer of about 125 GB took close to two hours each direction. Bottom line, go for it. Your XP computer is pretty much worthless unless you upgrade.

Just what I wanted. Needed an upgrade from XP but not willing to do Windows 10 yet. Works great. Someone else installed the disc for me and said that after it was installed it wouldn't do the complete update. But it's working fine for me.

Installation was very easy and the activation process with Microsoft by the automated phone system was also easy to follow their instructions.
