When I use a 7 upgrade disk, does this wipe my drive or simply replaces the Vista files with 7? Also, if i do need to do a clean install do i need to reinstall Vista then use the upgrade disk?
Upgrade just upgrades an already existing Vista install.
So if i needed to wipe my HDD I would have to install Vista then use the upgrade disk?
You don't need to wipe unless you really wanted to. Also if you prefer you can clean install: [url]http://www.winsupersite.com/win7/clean_install_upgrade_media.asp[/url]
I have it, im just saying it would be a pain in the ass if i had to reinstall vista then install 7

You don't have to reinstall Vista.
shweet, thanks. I'll hopefully be getting the upgrade disk soon so i can GTFO of vista and all of its problems
You can just patch over it (preserving your files)
But I clean installed, and took it as a chance/motive to actually organise my pc and sort what I really needed, deleted about 50gb of crap.

No, mine actually is retarded, i cant install service pack 1 and none of the fixes work, and since i can get the upgrade disk for 100 bucks its worth it

I was simply pointing out that he wasn't jumping on the bandwagon and that he had legitimate problems with Vista.
