Upgraded Desktop from Vista Home Premium to Windows 7 Ultimate: Much Happier Now!

I finally got around to upgrading my desktop (quad-core, 4GB RAM) from Vista Home Premium to Windows 7 Ultimate Edition (RTM) - both 32-bit Editions. Wow! What a difference. Under Vista, the PC's drives constantly thrashed for reasons I never understood (4GB RAM not enough)? The PC's hard drive is now virtually silent. No thrashing. It runs and feels like a completely different (better so far) PC.

The only thing I've noticed lost so far is support for the Bluetooth USB I have on a hub. I rarel use it. And, it was always flaky under Vista anyway. I should probably invest in another USB Bluetooth stick.

  1. i am trying to do the same but I am getting noises from the internet that tells me that it canot be done directly – from vista home premium to doze 7. Though it doesn’t soud right to me could you briefly let me know what migration path did you follow. Also is it a clean install or you managed to leave your programs/files intact?
