my laptop has Vista loader on it?
Good sirs. I was attempting to put a 2nd operating system on my Win7 laptop, when all of a sudden, I was horrified to see the information in my attached photo. Now what should I make of all this? The laptop was bought from Best Buy with Win 7 installed. Am I seeing a Vista upgrade and not a fresh Win 7 install? Does that make it less stable? I am certainly having problems with the shift keys on my keyboard, which is why I was trying to install Ubuntu until I got a good answer about how to fix my Windows problems... My drives are labeled C: local disk 447 GB D: recovery 17.9 GB E: HP_TOOLS - 99 MB if I try to use the recovery drive (which looks to be Vista) won't I just ruin my Win 7 install? And should the GeekSquad fix anything about this for free? Thanks for any info.
