your existing machine on which you are doing the upgrade right now. And
this windows 8 license will not work on other machine if you want to

disk, you need the
System Builder that may not be available at all locations.
Next
the upgrade assistant will downloading the windows 8 installer file on
your computer. This process may take a while because it will download 2
GB of files to your computer from Microsoft server.

Once
the installer files are download to your computer you can continue to
your setup for installing windows 8 OR you can pick the second option
that says, “Install by creating media.” Here you can save the Windows 8
installer files in a single ISO file and
then from the wizard itself burn the ISO image into a bootable DVD.
if you want to burn your own windows 8 setup. This may come handy later
when you want to repair or reinstall Windows 8
later but you must have to deleted the installer flies from the disk to
free up disk space.
Once the DVD is ready, double-click the Windows Setup shortcut (you’ll find it on your desktop) to run the setup again.
You
can either do a clean install and choose “Nothing” or use the
“Windows settings, personal files and apps” option to preserve your
files as well as programs (recommended). Also if you choose “Nothing,”
your personal files (anything saved inside the User folder and on the
desktop) will be moved to a windows.old folder. And you can find this
folder in your desirable partition in which you install your windows.
Choose the first “Install Now” option and Windows 8 will finish installing itself. Simple!
