I am building my PC for the first time and I need to know what are the Pros and Cons of the Full version, Upgrade, and OEM. I have heard that the Upgrade is the same as the full version but u need to have a version of a older OS. Can u use the system restore desk for this? I have hard that the OEM version is the only bootable Version, I am confused about this. I have heard that the full version u need to boot from the floppy first. Like I said I am confused. Also if some one feels up to it could u take me throught the steps of what happens when u first install your OS? Any tips on anything? Thanks.

Mod Edit - One thread per subject in the most appropriate forum, please. Your other thread:
