I bought a new computer form Tesco about a month ago, and now i want to get the Windows 7 Update which is free. I went to Tesco and asked them how to do it but they didn’t give me a good explanation. Anyone know how?

I get Windows 7 Ultimate for free from work, and I bought a laptop with Windows 7 home premium. I was wondering if there was a legal way for me to get home premium on my desktop computer, because I want the ultimate version to be on my laptop.
I realize this question has been answered a lot, but I’m looking for a answer specific to my question. Thank you.

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!

Right now almost everyone knows that windows 7 is going to come out on October 22nd. But when will the laptops come with it integrated?
So far I’ve seen that most computer brands offer you the opportunity to upgrade your vista but since I’m planning to buy a new one it don’t mind waiting until they come with it already installed.

I’m going to download the Windows 7 Professional operating system from Microsoft’s website instead of ordering the disk. I’m curious though as to how large the file is going to be. I’m sure more than a few gigabytes, but does anyone know how large specifically?

Now that I’ve installed Windows 7 on my C drive, Windows Vista is left on my D drive, and everytime I boot up it asks me to choose between which OS system to launch. How can I set it to default launch Windows 7?

I already have my computers set up a certain way and don’t want anything to change – as far as the display goes. All my shortcut icons are set up and arranged in a very efficient way for myself so I don’t have to search for certain files/folders. Will upgrading to Windows 7 screw this up?
