Install Windows 8 on HP G62 Notebook

Hi there.
I'm trying to dual-boot Windows 7 and Windows 8 in the same machine.
Before doing something this risky on the host computer I tried to install Windows 8 in a VM using VirtualBox but I got an 0x0000005d error similar to the screenshot below:
which means my CPU doesn't seem to support the NX (Non-eXecute) or XD (eXecute Disabled) bit feature (or at least doesn't have it enabled).
I proceeded to check with CPU-Z and going to the model page on HP's website and both of them seem to imply that the NX feature is available for my CPU.
Here's the CPU-Z screen:
The problem is that even though I have the "Hardware Virtualization" feature enabled in the BIOS, it seems like there's no option available regarding

Clean install Windows 8 Pro on new ASUS laptop

March 16, 2013
Just bought a new ASUS laptop which was preinstalled with Win8. I want to clean install win8 pro with UEFI support. However, everytime I get a message during the setup process that "The key does not match any of the images blah blah blah". I do not
get to the screen to enter my paid for code. The preinstalled OS key is hard coded into the BIOS. I upgraded the BIOS but still cannot clean install windows 8. Why???

Install Windows 8 on a new HDD?
location:
microsoft.com - date:
February 12, 2013
Hi, my sister owns an HP laptop that came preinstalled with Windows 7 Home Premium. Recently the HDD started to fail and she called me to help her replace it. She then went out an bought an upgrade copy of Windows 8 as she thought she could use it since
windows 7 was already installed on the old, failing drive.
Is there an easy way to get Windows 8 activated on her new HDD? She has already performed a clean install on the new disk but I do believe she has access to the old one as well.

Re-install windows 8 w/ new motherboard and CPU
location:

March 8, 2013
hey guys,
done a solid few hours of my own research and havent managed to come to a solution for my particular issue.
i am buying a new motherboard (GA-Z77X-UD3H) along with an intel i5.
the current system is an older model gigabyte AMD mobo w/ a phenom X2 in it... the OS is on a SSD and i have 2 other HDD's to back stuff up on.
my aim is to be able to essentially copy my current windows 8 install and slot it back in with the new hardware, i don't like the idea of re-installing programs and changing settings etc.
the current windows 8 install is the 40$ upgrade from windows 7 that was available a while back.
so mainly, should i just try to swap in the new hardware and hope to god it will boot? / is uninstalling drive

I would like to run Win 8 on a partition with Windows 7 and wondered if this is possible with the upgrade edition or will I have to purchase the full version. Not quite ready to give 7 up yet and would like to run side by side as I know this was possible with previous versions. Any information appreciated.
