I have everything I need to install Windows 8.1 Pro over Windows 8.1 Core; however, I don't see a tutorial on doing this, so I'm, wondering if I'll get into trouble doing this. BTW, I know I cannot use my Windows 8 Core Product Key with Windows 8.1 Pro.
I'd like to do a clean install, but UEFI kind of intimidates me (a lot!). Also, I already have a large number of programs on my computer, i.e., Office 2013, Nuance OmniPage Ultimate, Word Perfect Office, Logo Design Pro; you get the drift . . .
All the way through Windows 7 Ultimate I have never hesitated to install a new operating system, but Windows 8/8.1 and these new UEFI "bios" are working in tandem to make me procrastinate . . .
