How can you upgrade your genuine windows 7 home basic to home premium without having to buy a new full home premium?

First, Microsoft does not have a "Home Basic" edition of Windows 7 (Home Basic was one of the Vista editions). The most basic edition of Windows 7 is called "Windows 7 Starter" and is only available (at least in the US) on certain small "netbook"-type computers, which may be a bit underpowered for the Home Premium edition. (Note that I'm not saying that any particular one is, just that it's possible.)That said, Windows 7 has a feature called "Windows Anytime Upgrade" that allows you to go from a "lower" edition of Windows 7 (such as Starter) to a "higher" edition (such as Home Premium). The cost is around $80 for the Starter to Home Premium upgrade directly from Microsoft; you may be able to get it for slightly less from retailers such as Amazon.com.If you actually have Windows Vista Home Basic, the upgrade price to Windows 7 Home Premium (again, directly from Microsoft) is about $120.


What are the differences between Windows 7 starter Windows 7 home premium window 7 ultimate and Windows 7 professional?

Starter is basically a crippled version of Windows. This version cannot play DVDs, use Windows Media Center, stream media to other devices, no access to memory above 4GB (slightly less), run legacy programs, or have access to the newer Aero UI. Windows Home Premium includes many of the features just mentioned. Windows 7 Professional includes access to domains, a remote desktop server feature, Encrypting File System, and other features desirable for enterprise desktops. Windows 7 Ultimate includes all of the features available in all other editions, plus additional language support, BitLocker, and other premium features. There are also a few other editions available as well. For full details, interested readers should take a look at Microsoft's product comparison pages.
