for some reason I could not do this on the MINI>>
had to grab Seans laptop, no idea why..but mini has starter 7 .. not window 7
I've heard that the Windows 7 basic starter had lots of goodies left off.
If you know anyone or you have a college email you might want to see if you can get a Windows 7 home and upgrade to that: Windows 7 for $29.99 for college and university students
Glad that helped you

oh I would snag one of those copies if available still. You can also do a upgrade where it saves all of your data and stuff so nothing is lost and no reloading of your programs 
Well glad to see you back even if its only here or there
