Windows 7 has generated a lot of interest the past few months. While many users stayed with Windows XP and avoided going to Windows Vista, these same users are now excited to move to Windows 7. Windows 7 has cleaned up many of the problems users had with Windows Vista and has added some new and exciting features not found in Windows XP. This presentation is not a description of these new features or even a demonstration of Windows 7, but will focus on how you can get from your Windows XP or Vista system to the new Windows 7 operating system on your computer. Microsoft has lead you to believe that moving to Windows 7 from XP will be almost impossible to do. That is simply not the case. There are many great ways to move to Windows 7 from Windows XP. One of the first things a user of Windows should do on their computer is to separate their data files from their program files. This basic change to your hard drive will better protect your important data files from viruses and Windows crashes and also give you a better way to backup your main hard drive. It also makes moving to a new operating system much easier to do. So, this is a first step in getting to Windows 7. Normally, doing such a change to your computer would require a major reinstall of everything on your computer. But, we will tell you how to do it easily and will even demonstrate this function for you so you can see how easy it can be with the right tools. Once you have separated your data files from your program files, you can turn your attention to installing Windows 7 on your computer. There are many ways to do this. We will look at all of the options you have available and recommend the best approach possible for you to get to Windows 7 on your computer. We will then cover the approach to installing Windows 7 on your computer in some detail. We will even demonstrate how to do this, so that you can see how easy it is to accomplish. To protect you, our plan includes leaving your stable older operating system on your computer also. That lets you start to use Windows 7 at your own pace and not be forced into it immediately like the Microsoft approach. This topic gets down to the heart and soul of your computer's hard drive. It is one that all serious users of Personal Computers needs to understand. Don't miss this topic. (Presentation Duration: 60 minutes)
