well basically i have some questions about the new windows 7

firstly i am running vista specs are below


secondly i have no computer knowledge (almost zero)

i just wanna ask a few questions about upgrading to w7 from vista
firstly is it possible to upgrade my vista to w7(preferably home edition) without losing (reformat) my files eg anime , documents and stuff .

secondly how can i get a fake copy and make it cracked/seems original and still recieve updates with minimum risk since my vista is original .

and i also dont want to have to redownload all my drivers (since i dont know how to reformat computer)

and could you explain as simple as possible xD (unless someone can help me reformat ha ha )

and the reasons for asking is
#1 no $$
#2 no place to backup files
#3 no external hd
#4 cant borrow xD
#5 dieing to try w7 and also the nanami theme xD

hopefully this is not such a big request to ask
~~xD thanks xD ~~

I've just installed win 7 professional from DVD, now it's dual boot with XP. So wonderful, faster than vista and need ~6GB (vista 16GB). Most of old program in XP are working very good in win7

Try install dual OS (boot from DVD and chose a patition for win7)

If you dont want to have virus, try some Os like Ubuntu, Fedora Core (Linux line) no virus and free
