    Mynewt,

    I don't play games, so I cannot tell you if there are any compatibility issues with Win7. However as an ex vista-business user, now running Win7 professional, I can tell you that ease of use has improved, and laptop speed has increased.

    Perhaps you might try posting your question into google, to get more specific forum answers.

    Re: Converting Vista

    So windows 7 is worth switching to from Vista?

    Would Windows 7 improve some of the crap gaming performance i get with vista?

    Twee,

    unless you are involved with extremely complex algorithms and very high rate 'number crunching' there is no point, as a normal user, to change to 64bit. You will not see any noticeable difference.

    Vista itself is a massively bloated OS and I would suggest that you would benefit from converting to Windows 7 to speed up your PC, rather than introducing more complexity.

    Converting Vista

    Is it possible to convert Vista (premium) 32bit to 64bit "on the fly" ?

    What are the risks ?

    Is it worth doing ?
