Another thing I forgot to mention I'm using windows vista 64 bit.
Hi cnet:
I wanted to know if I should do an upgrade from vista to 7 or do a clean install from vista to windows 7. What is the difference from an upgrade and a clean install? What are the advantages of doing a clean install. I know that an upgrade you get to keep your files, but do you lose some features of windows 7? Also is it a good idea to do a clean install if your computer was build from a manufacturer like HP and not by me. Because I don't have any of the cds for some important programs that came with my computer, like lightscribe, software to the get the NVIDIA control panel, HP total care and many other important programs from HP.
Also if I do a clean install do I have to install back the software for my NVIDIA graphics card or sound card, or would windows 7 recognize it and install the drivers without putting the software cd from NVIDIA. If someone can help me thanks, please make a video of the advantages of upgrading or clean installing windows 7 on a computer that has been build by a manufacturer and not me.
