Windows 7 Home Premium is the current version of Microsoft's operating system, and comes with a lot of improvements over its predecessor (Windows Vista). Its interface is more or less the same, but it is much more stable and functional. Windows 7 Home Premium is really easy to install. However, there are many download sites that offer Windows 7 Home Premium ISO also. Simply choose which between the 32-bit and the 64-bit versions you need. Note that the 64-bit is not a direct upgrade of the 32-bit. I’ve the downloaded the Windows 7 Premium SP2 twice and both times it stops halfway saying it’s finished. I open and then.

In one of our previous posts, titled how to download Office 2013 from Microsoft using a product key, we discussed how to legally download Office 2013 setup from Microsoft by entering a genuine product key. The guide is useful for those who have lost their Office DVD and also for those who are having issues with the original Office DVD.

In addition to Office 2013 and 2010, one can also download the original Windows 8 and 8.1 ISO image files right from Microsoft by just entering required product key. As you should know, one can use the Windows 8/8.1 Upgrade Assistant to easily download Windows 8/8.1 ISO right from Microsoft. You just need to enter your product key to begin downloading setup files and then create bootable USB or ISO image file.
While some OEMs provide recovery image in a dedicated partition (drive) or recovery DVD when you purchase a new PC preinstalled with a version of Windows, the catch is that these recovery images or DVDs install trial copies of several third-party software and uninstalling these trial software itself is a tedious task.
Unlike Windows 8 and Windows 8.1, Microsoft doesn’t offer a way to download its Windows 7 OS via Windows Upgrade Assistant. However, Microsoft does offer a way to download genuine Windows 7 ISO image and is much easier than downloading Windows 8 or Windows 8.1 ISO, as you don’t need to download and run the Upgrade Assistant. The other advantage is that you don’t need to provide a genuine key to start the download, meaning that you can begin downloading Windows 7 ISO even if you can’t locate the product key at the moment (see how to recover product key).

One can download official Windows 7 with SP1 ISO image files by visiting the link mentioned at the end of this article. The download link lets you download both 32-bit and 64-bit Home Premium, Professional, and Ultimate editions of Windows 7.
Once you download the ISO image file on to your PC, you need to either burn the ISO to create a bootable DVD or use our how to create bootable USB or how to use Microsoft Windows 7 USB DVD Tool to create bootable USB guide to prepare the bootable media.
NOTE: You must have a genuine product key to be able to install the downloaded Windows 7 copy from Microsoft. Make sure that you’re downloading the right edition of Windows 7 to avoid experiencing issues while installing Windows 7.
Windows 7 SP1 ISO Download Links (official Microsoft forum)
Existing OS must match intended install ...
In other words, to 'upgrade' to Windows 7 Professional - you MUST have already installed Windows Vista Business.
Windows Vista Premium can only be 'upgraded' to Windows 7 Premium.
I fear you are misinterpreting what the Windows 7 Upgrade Advisor is telling you.
*Microsoft will only allow the following upgrade paths to Vista users. For example, users who purchase an upgrade copy of Windows 7 Professional and have Vista Home Premium will only be able to perform a clean install. Here's the migration list:
* Windows Vista Home Premium to Windows 7 Home Premium
* Windows Vista Business to Windows 7 Professional
* Windows Vista Ultimate to Windows 7 Ultimate
If you are performing an upgrade installation from Windows Vista, the base language must match the target Windows 7 language, you must have about 9GB of free space for the installation, and the installation can only occur on the same partition that holds Windows Vista. Existing applications and user data will be automatically migrated to the new Windows 7 installation.
Clean installs will require about 16GB for the installation process. Unless the user chooses to repartition or format the current partition, Vista's files from C:WINDOWS will be preserved under C:WINDOWS.OLD, just as when upgrading from XP to Vista. Clean installs will also have to be performed when upgrading from a 32-bit version to a 64-bit version.

RE: 'Can I do a clean install of Windows 7 (upgrading from
Yes the process is quite simple really. All you need do is Wipe the HDD in the computer
With something like Boot & Nuke
http://www.dban.org/
or Kill Disc
http://www.killdisk.com/downloadfree.htm
Then place the the Windows 7 Upgrade Disc into the DVD Drive and boot the system. The Upgrade version of 7 will then proceed to install and if it is anything like previous Upgrade Versions of Windows it will ask you to insert the Vista DVD into the Drive to confirm that you can Legally use the Upgrade Disc. After it has confirmed that you are using the product correctly it will instruct you to replace the Windows 7 Disc into the DVD Drive and complete the Install.
However you are likely to need to install any Drivers for your Hardware after you have finished the Windows install to get all of the hardware working. The most likely ones are the Sound Drivers, the Video Driver and any Network Drivers that may be required for your Hardware.
You'll also require the Original Recovery Disc for your system.
