It can be any version of Windows 7 (Starter, Home Basic, Home Premium, Professional or Ultimate) but if you want to keep your stuff buy an 'upgrade' version of the DVD. If your computer has become unstable, or cannot boot into Windows, choose the full install as this will install a fresh copy onto your computer. (Only choose this if you want to wipe all the stuff off your hard drive) but if you do all your stuff will be in a folder called Windows.old

I recommend Windows 7 Ultimate but it is the most expensive option. Windows 7 Starter is the cheapest but doesn't have the full features of Ultimate. Most people go for Home Premium. (I've got Windows 7 Ultimate Beta)
