    Hi
    Sorry if this has been answered but I have had a hunt and not been successful.

    I want to upgrade Windows 7 - I would prefer to do a clean install but may have the option to upgrade.

    What I would like to do is reinstall Stardocks and the Adobe premiere elements software that was preinstalled but can find out how.

    The Discs HP sent to recreate the original set up of the laptop do not include this software (unless HP sent the wrong discs)

    Can anyone help please

    Thanks
    :)
