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 | | |

Where to buy upgrade for Inspiron 1525? I am finding it difficult to get to buy an upgrade for my Vista home basic based Inspiron 1525.
If I buy the licence from anywehere else and try to install it on Inspiron 1525, will it work? Or do I have to buy it from Dell itself??
I am still wondering what to do....  | My System Specs | | System Manufacturer/Model Number Dell Inspiron 1525 OS Windows Vista CPU Intel Core2Duo Motherboard Dell Memory Dell 2GB Graphics Card na Sound Card nk Monitor(s) Displays LCD Laptop monitor PSU dont know Case dont know Cooling dont know Hard Drives 160GB esata |
