Of course you can. What's more, install Windows 7 for x86 and then apply almost all the drivers from the Vista Drivers' CD, except the Video Drivers, which must be taken from the intel page --> gm965 graphic drivers for Windows 7-RC.
It runs like a rocket, very very fast, it surprised me. | | My System Specs | | |
