How Do I Upgrade To Windows 7 From Vista Successfully?
Ok I have windows vista but I want windows 7. So I am planning on getting windows 7 on release date. Now I have never upgraded a computer before and I just bought my laptop in august 2009. How do I successfully upgrade without losing my stuff like:
Sims 3 data, Office and school documents, music for Zune HD, and programs I downloaded to my computer.
Can I just upgrade and everything will be fine? Please help!

You can upgrade and everything will be unaffected.
Be sure to make a minor backup just in case.
To upgrade:
-Start windows normally so you can see the desktop.
-Closed any unwanted programs that open at startup.
-Insert the windows 7 installation disc.
-It will load it up. (If not, double click on the disc on My Computer)
-Click “Install Now”
-Follow the prompts and until you get to Upgrade or Clean Install.
-Click Upgrade.
-Windows will begin to upgrade.
Congrats, you installed Windows 7 “on top of” Vista.
