DELL XPS M1330 Vista to Window 7 upgrqade
Hi not really happy with Vista it sucks. I purchased through Dell the window & upgrade. Not what does it entail to perform this upgrade. Will it keep all my pics sounds video stuff like that. and upgrade the OS. Or what do I need to do. Say my MS office. Will it automatically accept hte upgrade or will I have to reinstall office.
SEE MY MAIN thing is Trying to AVOID! reisntalling all the software my XPS came with. IF thats the cae I will take it to someone.
Thanks Dell Guido.

Got this answer straight from Microsoft:
There are two options to choose from during the Windows 7 installation process:
Upgrade. This option replaces your current version of Windows with Windows 7, and keeps your files, settings, and programs in place on your computer.
Custom. This option replaces your current version of Windows with Windows 7, but doesn't preserve your files, settings, and programs. It's sometimes referred to as a clean installation for that reason.

Im thinking about upgrading! You let me know how it works out! lol

Say Anthony,
I upgraded to Windows 7, but not my A968w printer wont print even when I use a USB cord to connect the printer. Did you have any printer issues?
