Doc, thanks for Email.

Received an Email from "dustywoodworker" & typed lengthy answer. Did the answer get over to him or did I not do something correctly?

His Email disappeared from the list of Emails; all I saw there was "Charlie4U" and "Doc Brown".

Made mistake; name on post should have been "dustywoodworker", not "Charlie4U".

buffylinden, you get emails because you are "subscribed" to this thread. Meaning any replies, and you are informed by email. You can unsubscribe if you wish, but the emails are not from the individuals, but rather the forum itself, notifying you that a thread you subscribe to has had replies.

To unsubscribe from this thread (so you won't get these emails), Click on Thread Tools at the top of this page, and choose Unsubscribe from this thread.



If you don't mind knowing that people have replied here, then do nothing. But be aware it isn't individuals emailing you, but rather an automatic function of the Forum. A Guy

You can buy an upgrade version of Windows 7 but, you will have to do a clean install, this will work and is supported by MS.

This tutorial explains how to:
Clean Install with a Upgrade Windows 7 Version

Installing Windows 7 is much easier than installing XP, have the internet connected and it will install most of your drivers.
It is an easy installation, even faster if you put the installation files on a USB memory stick.

Just leave the internet cable plugged in, if your using wireless it works also.
Much better getting drivers this way, you might want to update a couple drivers but you will be up and running with less/no issues.
