Upgrade without losing everything?
Hi all,
I've just bought my student copy of Windows 7 now and its coming up on time to install it. The question is this:
I have my OS on a seperate drive from everything else, so is there a way I can reformat and install the release copy of the OS onto the OS drive so that all of my other programs will still work (registry and appdata folder stuff intact I mean), without ending up with a seriously unstable OS because I've reintroduced registry entries and other faults from the old OS?
Please let me know if this is possible, and also if I've made my request clear enough.
Thanks,
Greg
