Hi,
I've Netexpress VER 5.105.0076 installed on Pc running Windows XP service pack 3.
I'm planning to:
- Upgrade Windows XP to Windows 7.
- Upgrade Netexpress ver 5.105.0076 to 5.1 ver 5.108.0030
I need to RETAIN Netexpress ver 5.0 from my pc to keep the license, but to upgrade from Windows XP to Windows 7 cannot be done according to Microsoft rules.
Therefore I have 2 methods to do that:
- Method 1 :
- Using Windows Easy Transfer for XP to transfer settings and others from Windows XP to Windows 7
- Install New Fresh Windows 7 ((formatting the HDD))
- Use Windows7 Easy Transfer to get that settings and others, here Netexpress 5.0 license should be within these settings !!??
- Method 2 :
- Upgrade from Windows XP to Vista
- Upgrade from Windows Vista to Windows 7
Then I will install the following:
NXP325.106.0079.exe ((Wrappack 6)): the complete installation
NXP325.107.0047.msp ((Wrappack 7)): to update the previous installation
NXP325.108.0030.msp ((Wrappack 8)): to update the previous installation.
Kindly which is the best and saved method which will not damage my Netexpress License?
