How do I go about changing my account over to my new computer and Win 7? It seems to recognize only my old computer and Win XP Pro

What account?

Sorry, but what account are you concerned with?

Do you mean your account with CNET? If so, having a new computer should not matter, whichever type of Operating System. Just login in with your email address and password and that should be fine.

CNET does not care what OS you are using.

Or do you mean some other account?
