October 26th, 2009 Leave a comment Go to comments

Normally, Win7 only accept upgrade from RC to RTM. It’s sad but it’s true. But

If there is a will, then there is a way

According to here, you can tweek Win7 installation file so it can accept upgrade even from Beta 1.

  • Mount your Win7 DVD or Image
  • Go to your sources folder
  • Edit cversion.ini file
  • Change minimum client (MinClient) property so it meet your system requirement. Basically, MinClient is Win7 build version. Change it into7000 if you have Win7 Beta version
  • Save the file
  • Run the installation as ussual
