I have downloaded the upgrade version of Windows 8 (64) - Saved as an ISO image and created a bootable DVD!
Will I be able to boot from this DVD, rather than perform an install from within Windows 7:-
Can I then perform a clean (Select Customize) installation on a deleted SSD (Disk 1); namely, my second SSD; rather than my first SSD, Disk 0, with the Windows 7 operating system on!
My aim is to get Windows 8 up and running, before I delete Windows 7 (I will transfer Windows 8 to Disk 0, at this time)
Does the installation of Windows 8 upgrade, need to see my existing Windows 7, installation on the disk it is installing on!
If I proceed in this manner, will the Windows 8 installation procedure, recognise my Belkin Wireless Adapter, type F5D8055!
Or will I need to install a driver - And if so, how!
Presumably, I need to go on line to update and verify registration!
I would appreciate advice on these matters.
