Yes, the reinstallation of programs takes some time. I hated Vista so much, I wanted it GONE!. In the future, a reinstall won't take so much time. Even with a 'clean' install, Win7 checks hardware, etc. and automatically installs the drivers. The 'Easy Transfer' also saves a truck load of stuff...

I did a clean install of Win7 upgrade. I did not need the Vista disc. I only formated the C: partition and left the D: partition that the oem, HP had put there. I had Microsoft support on the phone as I did it. It worked well. I don't know enough to advise about opening the whole drive up to be...

I've formatted and installed Win7 on my home computer. In talking with Microsoft, they say that is a place to save possibly needed stuff. By formatting and doing a 'clean' install of Win7, it is gone and working fine so far. Much better than Vista!

CD/DVD burn Yes. I do. I'll look at that site. Thanks.

Win7n is on! Hello. Win7 full install and formating of the C: partition was successful. Windows.old is non existant here now. All the adware usually included is gone!! However, a couple of the basic freebees are also gone. I am now interested in the basic Roxio Creator9 that came with the...

No Wi Fi experience Smokey, I 'm with you. I have been using computers since 1985. I haven't done anything with wifi, until yesterday. I connected a Dlink to the computer I manage at church. It worked and connected with a MacBookPro. The pastor has a unit he says I can connect to my old...

Win 7 I just ordered Win7 family pac - 3 machines from Amazon 129.99 free shipping. I am now at the other machine, 64 biy with Windows.old. I'll review and delete. Thanks for your input.

Thanks, Pepper and mdram This machine has 2g and the other one has 4g. I think I could add 2 more g's here. I think I will try it. The files in Windows.old are also backed up in other places. :-) Bill

Vista - Seven Thanks, diogen. This was a re-install with the disc sent with the computer (dell). Is an upgrade to Win7 a good bet? I have been reluctant to install something different from what was originally on the machine. I certainly agree. No one in his right mind would now choose...

I reinstalled Vista some time ago and now realize that I have a C: directory of 'Windows.old'. It is bigger than the 'Windows' just above it. It also includes user files. Where did it come from? and can I delete it? Not sure where on here to ask. Please advise if I should ask somewhere else...
