If you install Windows 7, you need to do a complete backup of all you files! Then once the beta testing is over you will need to completely REINSTALL Vista from scratch!!! So if you don t have a master copy of Vista OS, DO NOT install the Beta of Windows 7!!

you should be able to select if you want to format your pc or not, also you can just upgrade windows vista to windows 7.... below is a totural to get a free windows 7 key, (fully genuine) (you will have to creat an different email, so go to www.hotmail.com and sigh up, because you will need to use your new email to sigh into microsoft, to get the key) Logon to Code: http://technet.microsoft.com and sign in. After logging in, copy these links, paste them in your address bar and press enter. Windows 7 32-Bit Key: Code: https://www.microsoft.com/betaexperience... Windows 7-64 Bit Key: Code: https://www.microsoft.com/betaexperience... Note, you might confront a error, if you do, dona€?t worry, just refresh the page until you get to the page where youa€?ll receive your Windows 7 Activation Key. (Patience is a virtue) Now you got yourself a genuine Windows 7 activation key! have fun ;)

When you install Win 7 it will perform an upgrade and keep you files, but at the end of the beta program in August you will need to have backed up your files by then and re-install vista. If you want to try Win 7 i suggest you create a separate partition on your hard drive or run it in virtual machine. WIndows 7 is far better the Vista. Its basically Vista fixed and with a new task bar.

you will have to make recovery disks for vista before installing wimdows 7 unless you dual boot with vista also win 7 is beta which means you may have problems with programs since that is how they fix problems. also you will loose your files if you don t back them up to disk

It will not kill the files if you choose the upgrade option in the installation. You will not have to reinstall windows until you get a product key for windows 7. They haven t finished the os yet so there are probably no keys yet

yes windows 7 requires a full format of the hard drive to install it

Leave the matter alone. The improvement in the beta release is not that impressive and will expire in August

Don t bother. Windows 7 is just Vista Jr.
