        Doing a Windows 10 32bit install, if you can believe it.

        Yep, I have an upgrade going to that at the moment.

              I have some systems where people had a Windows 7 laptop and a desktop and will only be getting one or the other with Windows 10. So, some are two for one.

                I also need to get everyone logged into the new RDS server to create their UPD profiles. Unless there is a profile migration tool to go from Server 2008 R2 standard profiles to 2016 UPD.

                    W10 refuses to install.
                    Just about at the stage where it's now more economical for the client to purchase a new laptop.

                    It wouldn't happen to be a 32bit CPU would it?
                    @scottalanmiller's post above has had me wondering.

                      no mate, 64 bit with 8GB RAM.

                      If I boot up on a bootable W10 USB to install W10, will it or won't it see the existing W7 license and use that?

                      I've only been running setup.exe from within W7.

                        The license should be embedded into the hardware assuming it's an oem.

                                It'll nab the key from the mobo.
                                I find it best to take as much Windows out of the equation as possible.

                                I haven't been upgrading the Win7 PC's here. We're wiping and reloading. Too much fluffing about.

                                    @siringo you're only on SP1, you have to manually update before you can upgrade.

                                        well that laptop just decided to upgrade. I went in before it started and told it to not look for updates and drivers as part of the installation & it went straight through.

                                          I've seen that stop upgrades before.

                                          Someone recently posted the command line for doing the upgrade and telling it to skip checking for updates.
