I have windows 7 ultimate 64 bit installed on my computer. I recently got a 128gb Samsung 830 ssd, and ultimate takes up nearly 100gb. I need to reinstall my operating system anyway, and I was wondering if I can activate a copy of windows 7 home premium 64 bit with my ultimate key?

Ultimate takes up no more space than other editions.

No, each Key is specific to a particular version and edition of Windows.

I suggest that you run Disk Cleanup, and then post in a more appropriate forum - http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows_7-performance
