Will Windows 7 CD Upgrade Both My Installs On Single Laptop?
I will be upgrading my laptop XP install to Windows 7 so that I can upgrade PT from 8.0.1 to PT9. I have a dual boot system, with the Pro Tools install on its own partition.
My question is, will I be able to upgrade both my XP installs (the Pro Tools partition, and the general use partition) from the single Windows 7 upgrade CD? |

Check with MS, but probably no.
However, they do offer a Home Premium Family Pack that allows you to upgrade up to three computers. I believe it's only about $20 more than the "single" upgrade.

Yes. Since you are dual booting on the same machine, MS will always see it as a single installation.
