I am currently using Windows 7 Ultimate 32-Bit Edition.!

I want to install Windows 8.1, can anyone help me for the best edition for Win8.!

My friend suggested me to compare and choose windows edition from here:-

Compare Edition

My Laptop Configs are:-

GPU: Nvidia 315M 2GB DDR5
CPU: Intel Core i3 370M 2.40GHz [4xCPUs]
RAM: 3 GB DDR3 1333MHz
HDD: 500 GB

Can someone provide me link to download Win 8.1 and how to install it using USB.

(PS- After helping me choose the best OS)

Thanks a Lot Guys.! ^_^

if you dont need any of the additional features like encryption and remote controll, you will be fine with basic win8.1

Win 8.1 isn't worth or what.?

I'm running 8.1 on one machine and 7 on another. The ONLY difference I've noticed between the two is that 8 has the annoying Metro interface. Stick with 7, there's just no point in 8.

i sort of want pro for group policy because you get more settings that way, but the price difference doesn't seem worth it at all. i'd recommend core or base or whatever the normal one in the purple is called to pretty much anyone. i need to buy it myself since my preview copy just ran out yesterday. unfortunately microsoft is a total jerk about it so my computer is pretty much unusable for a couple days until amazon ships it.

You really don't need Win 8 in my experience its mostly for touchscreens and mobile devices, just stick with 7

Best advice right now is to stick with Windows 7. Windows 8 has been designed for touchscreen and is a real pain in the ass to use on a regular computer.

Lol... no need to change to windows 8.
Just stick to Windows 7, not worth risking compatibility problems with Windows 8.1.

Better do some research before changing to windows 8.1:

P.S If you don't know how plug in a USB, you probably shouldn't be touching the OS...

I am going to be honest with you. Change windows, but from win 7 32 bits to win 7 64 bits, there is a vast difference between the versions.

I will not talk trash about win 8, but it sucks big time. So frustrating to navigate it, and the other stupid screen that always pop up when you move the mouse (touchpad) near to the left lower corner (play/pause videos, or even trying to click an icon)

Seriously, believe me you will find that OS frustrating 1 hour after you install it. (Safe mode wont even start as usual.)
