[QUOTE="petek, post: 74617, member: 1924"] Dead easy. But do yourself a favour and purchase a retail copy as per my link above, then you can transfer it to another PC without ever worrying. Do a full backup and once you are done, pop the Windows 7 disc into your DVD drive and reboot your PC. At the POST screen (as your PC starts to display info on screen, start tapping the F8 key. This will prompt you to select which device to boot from. Select the DVD drive. Windows 7 will then take you through a whole bunch of prompts. I'd recommend formatting your hard drive and not installing over the old installation. Once done you will of course need to reinstall your main applications as well as data folders. Note that while you're at it, you should consider upgrading to 4GB of RAM as per my link, then be sure to buy the x64 version of Windows 7. [/QUOTE]
