I have a legit copy of windows XP Pro (32 bit) that i want to upgrade to W8 (64 bit). I also have hardware (S939, GPU, MB and DDR to FM2 CPU, MB and ddr3) to upgrade.
Now the questions!
1.Using the windows upgrade tool i can get W8 Pro for £24.99 plus £8.99 for a DVD, is this the same as the £44.99 DVD that most shops sell? Will it be the 64 bit version?
2.Which do you recommend i upgrade first, software or hardware? Im leaning towards hardware and sorting XP with drivers etc ready to upgrade...
3.Does the upgrade disk mean that if i want to reinstall in the future i have to have Windows XP back on the machine before W8?
Thank you!
