    hes upgraded it from vista to 7, goto start menu and right click on my computer and goto properties and scroll to the bottom, if it says windows is activated then its genuine

    Well I doubt he went through the distress of making a fake version of 7.. or downloading one on a partitioned system.

    Hi Ryan,

    You can question the seller for professional documentation that he upgraded from Vista to Windows 7. This resource will also help you determine if your Windows 7 is genuine: http://www.microsoft.com/howtotell/.
