Windows XP customers can upgrade to Windows 7, but you'll need to perform a custom installation. For detailed instructions, see Upgrading from Windows XP to Windows 7 at http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/wi....

First check to see that your PC will run Windows 7: if you are unable to run the Windows 7 Upgrade Advisor (http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/wi...) then check out the general system requirements (http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/wi.... Windows 7 requires...

- 1 gigahertz (GHz) or faster 32-bit (x86) or 64-bit (x64) processor

- 1 gigabyte (GB) RAM (32-bit) or 2 GB RAM (64-bit)

- 16 GB available hard disk space (32-bit) or 20 GB (64-bit)

- DirectX 9 graphics device with WDDM 1.0 or higher driver

Many current PCs made in the last few years meet this criteria.

To upgrade your PC from Windows XP to Windows 7, you'll need to complete a "clean" installation for Windows 7. Please see the tutorial at http://windows.microsoft.com/upgrade-... for more details.
