    Windows 7 upgrade...No Can Do....

    I have a 2006 HP Pavilion that I just ran the W7 upgrade adviser on. Probably not going to happen. 4 page report of too much stuff to do just to get it installed, let alone run smoothly. Just a bunch of compatibility issues, both soft & hard. Also some program upgrades to get. Guess I'll just stick with XP until I need a new machine.

    I'm betting you'd have a lot of the same issues with Vista... That's when the app compat issues first started showing up...

    XP Home Pro.

    You could use XP Mode on Windows 7. But IMO that still needs a lot of work. That won't fix any hardware issues though.

    I have 7 on my laptop, so far I like it a lot. I didn't do it, a friend did for me. I had to do a full system reboot.
