Do you need a touch screen computer for windows 7? -

i have a Gateway M-6862 laptop 4gb Ram intel core2duo 2GhZ Windows XP SP3 non-touch-screen will windows 7 work on my laptop i have a copy but dont know if i should install it or not thanks in advance

Wouldnt make much sense for microsoft to put out an OS that only worked on a touch screen, they wouldnt sell very many copies...

You will not need a touch screen. Only issues you may have are driver compatibility related. If you know what you re doing, go for it
