You will loose everything, not just your anti virus software. The Windows 7 beta that is now being offered will only run for about 5 months anyway. It would probably be a better idea to wait for the retail release of the OS before installing it.
If you install it on the same drive: All your files will be deleted. If you install it on a seperate drive: Your anti-virus will not quot;go overquot; in Win7 because WinXP/Vista and Win7 is completely independent from each other. You can install it again in Win7 and it will work.
Actuall yWindows 7 BETA too is like an OS .You need to install ur softwares all again. I too have Windows 7 in m pc. t has got newly branded appearence but in terms of performance the answer is .......? If u wanna show off Windows 7 iss your choice, If u wanna have a well maintained comuter , WINDOWS XP ROCKZ
Your anti-virus software will not carryover to Windows 7 Beta. David has provided you with the proper list of recommended anti-virus software one should use with the Beta. Before you go ahead and download the Windows 7 Beta be sure to check out the Windows 7 FAQ and Installation pages. There are a few important things someone should know before trying out a Beta OS, especially if they have never used a beta OS before. http://www.microsoft.com/windows/windows... http://www.microsoft.com/windows/windows...
