Who's upgraded from Vista to 7?

I know that microsoft used force hard drive reformat when you upgraded and you lost whatever was on the drive unless you backed up. Is this still the case?
I assume it is.

Yes to upgrade No to the problem, I upgraded my sisters laptop to 7 without a hitch. The only thing was that some of her settings got reset.

I'm pretty sure this is still the case.
I tried to upgrade just a few weeks ago but couldn't unless I reformatted my whole drive. So I plan on sticking with crappy Vista for a while longer till it drives me insane.

Its on my laptop.
And vistas on my dads big comp
So i mean, i kind of upgraded i guess?
I kind of like windows 7. Just wish my dell mini could have a background.D<

it is the case you have to buck up your shit to either separate partition or to disc (sometimes windows 7 wants to format the partitions as well)

Give me ten reason I can't counter as to why Vista sucks.
Because I still think its awesome. I'm only upgrading because its free.
The reformat isn't a huge deal for me since I have two hard drives and I can just shove stuff over and then move it back. Just curious.

I'm sticking with Vista.
Too scared I'll eff up my crap changing it to 7 and I don't see why I would :p

Lolol. Vista isn't that bad.
