Need a 30 day evaluation copy of Windows 7 Ultimate but only have a Windows 7 Professional DVD.
I am installing to a virtual machine on Hyper-V so have created an ISO from the original DVD and build from that.
Removing the ie.cfg from the ISO will cause the installation process to prompt you for the version to install.
I put the binpatcher.exe file in the folder with the Windows 7 ISO ran the exe was prompted for the ISO file select the ISO and no drama.
Created the Windows 7 Ultimate virtual machine in less time than it took me to write this post.
The ie.cfg file can also be edited within the ISO image and set to your choice of version; you will need something like Magic ISO that will let you extract the file and write the updated one back to the ISO (free version will not let you save the ISO).
You don’t need an activation code to try for 30 days.
A link to the tool I used is below and I believe it works with Windows 8 as well (I cannot verify that as yet). Just a thought what about Windows Server 2008 versions standard v’s enterprise.
