Some vestigial programs may        not be upgraded correctly and       eventually, they will cause the entire OS install to become unstable,       forcing a fresh full install of Windows 7.              As someone who's done more Windows 7 installs than he'd like to admit, I'd       really recommend backing up your data and doing a full fresh install. This       means blowing the hard drive and letting Windows 7 redo the entire       partition, especially with the EFI booting requirements. XP and Windows 7       are very different and I'd not mix them.              Later,       Sean                     ...
