Yes it does, but yeah, you have to boot off the DVD.

when i burned it, nero popped up a msg saying Foriegn image file and the block size doesnt correspond with the actual size? Gave an option to fix it or leave it. I left it cuz the fix it option had 2048 or 2352 and both still ended up showing the same error msg. Did that pop up for you when your burned it?

anyone know how many computers we can install this on? i wanna put this on my desktop and laptop

^ 1 key = 1 computer. now you do the math.

is that for win7 pro? or home premium?

^^ those are the exact same links on the page I posted.

Anyways, this is how I made my bootable Win7 DVD: http://forum.imgburn.com/index.php?showtopic=11194

You just use ImgBurn to create a bootable dvd from the files you downloaded and extracted from digital river.

Just wondering anyone's got their disc in the mail yet if you ordered the disc package?
Its been two weeks for mee and i want to upgraade :cry:

i didn't get my disc either. I ordered mine on Oct 13 I think. I was expecting it today..

well whoever ordered a cd, post when they get it cuz im waiting for mine too.

Did you guys at least get the notification email that the cd was shipped?

Yaa, i got my notification i think oct 27? so its been two weeks since it was "shipped" :(

I didn't even get that email, I ordered it like 2 weeks ago now and all my computers already have 7 on them with my key lol

Dunno why so many people having problems, 7 was probably the fastest/easiest clean install I've done

does that mean that i can install onto my desktop and laptop without purchasing 2 keys?? i have 2 school emails.. so i didnt know if i should get 2 or not

Oh not sure, I only used my new key for my desktop, laptop still has the beta on

but yea I do think with the retail iso burned you could load onto multiple machines

I didn't get that notification email... I tracked the order and it said shipped.

i got a notification on oct.27 too but still no cd, they sending this from asia or something? taking too long

im suprised because when i did the memory upgrade for the 360 through microsoft it got to me in under a week, less demand for that i guess

Did anyone download the student special Windows 7 recently?
I want to know if you still download the .exe file which had a lot of complaints or do you download a .iso so you can burn it to a dvd right away.

what memory upgrade?

It was a promo last year where if you bought an xbox arcade you could get a 20gig HD for $20

I'm guessing no one has received their hard copy yet?

My order status says complete but I still don't have my copy..

on my visa bill it was billed from Luxembourg is that why its held up?
i still haven't gotten it yet too!

can i use that same cd key that i have on my desktop and install it on my netbook as well?

I'm not sure, I'm going to see if I can install it on 2 of my laptops. I might just make my own disc now.

i just did the download yesterday. I downloaded the exe file and the setup was running without me creating a boot disk.

i know its only been out for a few weeks, but i thought it would be more compatible with existing apps.

i wouldnt call this a reason not to buy it, but ive had 64bit windows 7 pro installed for 3 days and have already run into multiple programs that do not support it. SQL server doesnt work with windows 7 x64 (x64 xp/vista only), so i had to run it inside a VMWare environment with 32bit XP. also sometimes i like to keep older versions of programs because i dont like bloated software. an example of this is adobe acrobat. i've been using version 6.0 for years! older apps were not made for x64 environments obviously. i have a drive on my computer where i keep old software. can't use stuff like that anymore.
