    Sony VA10 - VGN-FW21E


    We have the above Laptop and it is a first class piece of kit with one exception - its operating system 'VISTA' it also has the preloaded software pack which my daughter finds extremely useful.

    So I am thinking of putting Win7 on to this machine but I have no desire to loose any of the stuff that is on there so which is the best way of going about this task?
