Those who have wind7 be very careful it's the best so far. Sometimes, free costs you more in this case it's not the money but it could be the "time" you spend to fix your pc setup and configurations after you upgrade to wind10. I'm not here to scare anyone. it's just an opinion, lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Awards

I prefer not to perform 'upgrades' as they are not usually great but as they are pushing for 99% of people to be using the upgrades system it will be robust and you should have no problems using it.

Experience has taught me that it is unwise to be an early adopter and, with at least one of our members already experiencing problems with COD4, anything that interferes with ones gaming is hardly an "upgrade"...

Which is good but I'm still trying to figure out how to do it to all my computers. This is going to be alot of file backup and transfer.

The process of performing a clean install of any operating system is generally this: Download the .ISO of the operating system you will be installing Place that .ISO on an external device If it is a DVD burn the .ISO to it (Windows 7 has software pre-installed) If it is a USB use WinRAR (or other software) and extract the contents to the USB Restart your computer and use the BIOS or Boot Manager to boot from your DVD or USB Follow the instructions During the installation you can then format the drive, you cannot format the drive from the operating system that is running from the drive.. that would be a self destruct and it wouldn't like it. You can mount the .ISO on a virtual drive and do it that way but it is harder to recover from if a problem occurs during install.
