ok..
i accidently pressed the buttons like two months back,
had to try many permutations and combinations to find what caused that..
but it really looks very nice..

good that you liked it .. ( may sound a s little offtopic ) - go test some live linux distro with compiz fusion ( latest version of Knoppix will do ) - you will be amazed ;-)

Can anyone tell me if i can transfer my windows7 from my pc to another one ??:confused:
If and if only you won't be using it on your former PC.
You may need to manually activate Windows on your newer PC. How to contact a Microsoft Product Activation Center by telephone

^^ You don't have to "deactivate" Windows as such. When you activate in your new PC, the former PC gets automatically removed from Microsoft's servers.
There are methods to deactivate windows but I don't recommend them as there are cases where the product key is rendered useless.

What I'm about to ask may have already been answered in this thread or another one.

Windows 7 Starter is available only in 32-bit edition.
Can I upgrade it to a 64-bit edition of Home Basic/Premium?

If yes, then kindly also provide me a link that confirms it.

If not, then what are my options?

I do not want to purchase a retail of Home Basic/Premium. Would be too expensive.
Don't want to upgrade to Windows 8. Didn't like it much.

Please help.

No, you cannot upgrade a 32 bit OS to a 64-bit OS. You have to perform a clean install only.
Since, you neither want to buy a higher version of Win 7 nor Win 8, the only option is to download specific softwares for each and every limitation of the starter edition.
