Well I want to switch Vista to Windows 7. I want Vista completely off my system and Windows 7 instead. How do I go abouts and do that? (Dont want any partitioning)
Thanks!

As far as I know, you just need to back up all of your documents and the win7 CD will do the rest.
What if your using a torrent :D.Quote:

It worked for me.
It should still work. Just pop in the CD and see if it has an "upgrade" option or something. If not, then I'm wrong. But I don't think I am.
If I am wrong, it shouldn't matter much anyways. You should just be able to easily delete the Vista partition from within the win7 CD and install in that free space.
Okay thanks sir. Ill contact you guys when the torrent finishes.Quote:

You guys fail, he can only upgrade if he has the same bit version and something else. So he may not be able to upgrade.

I'm sure it will work..
Yeah fuck upgrading. I removed vista completely. They were telling me to install service pack 1.
So I just installed Windows 7 over it.
WINDOWS 7 IS THE SHIT!
Thanks everyone <3.
isn't there a deal where you get 7 cheap if you're a student?
didn't want to start a thread, and google looks complicated.
Yeah there is, it's like $25.
But free is win anyways.

Burn ISO image to CD / DVD. Boot from DVD / CD.
Install the Windows 7 to that partition that doesn't have your files.

I wouldn't recommend upgrading, only a fresh install. Backup your Vista installation files though, then copy them to Windows 7. Otherwise you'd be experiencing a lot of performance issues.
