What upgrade version of the Windows® 7 operating system do I get if I upgraded the original version of the Windows Vista® operating system using the Windows Anytime Upgrade (WAU) program?
If the VAIO® computer qualifies for a Windows 7 upgrade kit, the version of the Windows 7 operating system will match the version of the original preinstalled Windows Vista operating system. To determine if your computer model qualifies for a Windows 7 upgrade kit, visit the Sony® Windows 7 Web site at https://www.sony.com/windows7.
Due to Microsoft® guidelines for the Windows 7 operating system upgrade program, Sony can only provide the upgrade media that corresponds to the original operating system shipped with the computer.
