    Windows 7 Build 7100 - Where to now


    I was running Vista Home Premium and upgraded to Windows 7 evaluation and am now on build 7100. Now with the official release just around the corner I was wondering what do I do now. What version of Win 7 should I now purchase and will I be able to upgrade my current installation or will I have to format and start on a complete clean install

    Clean install is recommended. Just backup your data first.
    You can install any version you want.

    It's not so bad. I reinstall my OS at least twice a year...:)

    It is just the time it take to get it all back to what it was but yes I also seems to have to do a fresh install every now and then especially using Win XP

    DirtRider check out Windows Easy Transfer, it will restore all your files and settings. you just need to reinstall your programs. I have used it several times and it works. Save hours. Chect out the tutorial on this site.
