Download ISO after release. The problem is you have no existing product(s) which you can upgrade.

The iso would work providing they allowed you to enter old product key then let install continue. I do not buy my computers. I build them myself. Buying a computer for me will never happen.

So the yes or no question is: Can you upgrade with just old product key on new hardware?

Do you know if there is any other way to get the upgrade other than the reservation method? I ask because I recently had my house burn down and lost all of my computers. For six of them i used the Windows 7 family pack. I purchased two packs. It allowed you to install WIN 7 on three computers. So could one say get Windows 10 upgrade with just the product key?

The first 2 partitions contain (I believe) Recovery Tools to assist with a Factory Restore, and a Restore partition that actually contains the Restore Image from the factory.

Thanks for reply. It doesn’t seem you are sure about first two partitions. If you look at my screen capture it shows a (EFI System Partition) at 300MB. I’m educating myself on new technology but isn’t EFI the new way bios is done?
