Here is the torrent I want to use.
https://thepiratebay.se/torrent/5819866/W...mber_2010)
I can't figure out how to make it work. I did follow the instructions, but I didn't get anywhere. I'm trying to burn it on to a DVD (I used PowerISO) to use it on a different computer. The computer is in really bad shape. I checked and it is a 32 bit operation system. The computer is a Gateway purchased on March of 2007, and it's running on Windows Vista Home Premium.

Thank you. I've read through these links and I will give it another shot. I did have some more questions. I read through the comments on the torrent and it said to not update Windows Update KB971033. If it does install, what will happen? Does that mean Windows Updates can't be used or just that particular update? If I successfully install Windows 7 Home Premium, is there anything that I should worry about or can I use it with nothing to worry about?
I found this comment on 2 by the person who uploaded the torrent.

Windows will no longer be genuine and you'll need to use e.g. WATfix to reset it.

Just that particular update.

You can use it without worrying.

If I may ask, why are you using Home Premium? Is it just happenstance, or do you have a particular purpose for it?
Most people, like me, would just use Ultimate. It allows for better hardware, though it will have a short support life to it, meaning Microsoft will cut it short for technical support. I don't mean that you should switch like the others, but I'm curious as to why you picked this one.

I've never tired Ultimate. I want to stick with something I know.

Home Premium lacks some of the functions that Pro and Ultimate offer. The "Screen" and layout you see are exactly the same.
Check if your processor can run what i've mentioned and then, if it was me. I'd upgrade the architecture version of the O/S

If you know Home Premium then you know Ultimate.

I'd recommend using this ISO instead:
https://thepiratebay.se/torrent/9512587
and imgburn
or better yet, use a usb, with rufus - rufus.akeo.ie
