Hi Francis, I installed Windows 7 last Christmas. From memory, although it gave me the choice of a quick installation which would retain my files and programmes, or a total installation meaning I'd have to back up everything, it wouldn't allow me to do the quick one. Mine is a HP Pavilion (bought in 2007) and it was running on Vista with all the updates. I thought I'd backed up the important stuff, but I still lost I lost so much.
