I own a Gateway GM5632E and would like to run Windows 7 on it. I purchased a one of the family upgrades, so I own Windows 7 Home premium. I have attempted the upgrade twice. I never get ANY errors, but at about 65% through the final process, it just hangs. No reason, no nothing. I reboot and it rolls back my Vista. I know that Gateway says Windows 7 won't run on this system, but I also know that others have made it work. Any ideas or direction would be helpful. Thanks In Advance.

Windows 7 will run extremely well on that system. I'd stop going to Gateway and just get the drivers from the source, like Intel. A clean install will work fine, and once you load the drivers it will be running very well.
