I tried searching on this topic but I must be "search facility challenged" because I can't find any answers. I have a new Lenovo laptop with Vista Ultimate 32. It has no apps (other than bloatware) installed. I've cloned it and I want to get it converted to W7 ASAP. The "free" W7 32 upgrade from Lenovo is "being processed", hence I don't know when I'll get it. Meanwhile I've found a deal on a retail W7 Pro upgrade. If I do the clean install thing does anyone know of potential problems since I'm stepping down 1 grade? I doubt that I will ever need BitLocker so not running W7 Ultimate is not a show stopper for me. Plus the retail Pro upgrade has the 64 bit version and I have 8GB of memory on the laptop. So I'll try a clean install of the 64 bit version and see how far I get with getting my XP apps up and running. TIA for you help.
