    No need to upgrade to Vista.
    Just install Win7 on the formatted hard drive - and don't enter the product key.
    Then, inside of Win7, use the upgrade option to upgrade the OS. This time you'll enter the product key.

    you can

    also run a system file check

    type cmd in search>right click and run as admin>sfc /scannow

    windows 7 irql not less or equal


    Got the bsod with the irql not less or equal blah blah blah it seemed to have happened after getting a cordless mouse by the way its a toshiba laptop that was three months ago and it only happened after computer went into sleep mode where i would have to log in but when i tried to log in two keystrokes into it and the bsod would appear and just as it came it went not to be seen again until last night. just as before i just bought a new cordless mouse and was on my second day using it but this time bsod appeared while using computer never has that happened it happened abouot three times so i started uninstalling recently installed programs hoping that might have been the problem but i also keep the computer running non- stop should i shut down when not using could this possibly be a overheating. oh and by the way never happened with vista ever. my win 7 was one of those free upgrades that you got when purchasing a new computer any ideas? oh yeah the laptop is less than a year old with centrino core 2 duo
