I guess I did a fresh install. Had Vista but no more. That is I did a clean install.

Hmmm, that's a tough 1

I just went from W7 RCs to RTMs, does that count? Feels like it, to me
Dunno if I upgraded from Vista cus I still have it i my computer, also. But, I don't use it much (anymore), does that count?
& I guess I upgraded from XP although, still run that virtually.

So technicaly, from Vista, I guess. Although, triple-boot now, til recently, I dual-booted to Vista & XP

Not sure when I upgraded or fom what exactly but, I'm sure y'all can/will figure it out

Then, again, maybe I (actually) upgraded nothing as all installs have always been as clean installs to their own drives. LOL

Cheers,
Drew

A CLEAN INSTALL is the only way to go! Most of the people here now having problems upgraded instead of a clean install.

Had Vista earlier and did a clean install. Later installed Linux Ubuntu on another partition, so now I have a dual-boot machine with Win7/Ubuntu.
