  1. Plans to do a fresh install, will I run into any issues with my situation?


    Built my gaming rig back in late 2012 with a 120gb SSD boot drive and a separate 2TB HDD. Partially a bit of an oversight on my end but some stuff installed on the SSD when it shouldn’t have. Been wanting to do a fresh install but could never find my key until now. At the time I got whatever was just a plain basic Windows OS (8? maybe) then obliviously the eventual free upgrade to Win10.

    My timeline could be off but before the switch to Win10 I got a Windows Ultimate upgrade through my college and that stuck through to the free upgrade to 10. If I do the fresh install with the key I have (again I Win8 at the time) will it install as Windows 10? Will I keep the Ultimate version?

    Thanks for any help. Just trying to cover my bases before doing a fresh install.
