upgraded from XP Prof to Win7 Prof - NO PROBLEM!

Oct 26, 2009 8:11AM PDT

Well I was expecting another horrible experience like I had with up-grading to Windows Vista (so much so that I uninstalled and went back to XP) but after following the Win7 instructions exactly I had no problems and it went fairly quickly... a cleaan install to my old HP dual core 1 Gig 2.1 mhtz... although I had to switch my antivirus to iolo system mechanic profession... still now 4 days later Win7 works well, is fast and without a crash. I love it! Good luck to all, I think most will love Win7. Congrat Micrsoft
