I have upgraded Vista to Windows 7 once before but ended up doing a clean install of Windows 7 with the full version. &nbsp;I have a customer that is currently running Vista Home Premium 64 bit and wants to go to Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bit. &nbsp;Would it be better to get the full version of Windows 7 and do a clean install OR get the upgrade and try that again?<br />
<br />
Thanks.

Upgrade from Vista HP 64 bit to Windows 7

Windows 7 is an operating system from Microsoft. Features include multi-touch support, a redesigned Windows Shell with a new taskbar, referred to as the Superbar, a home networking system called HomeGroup, and performance improvements.

Windows 7

Windows Vista is an operating system created by Microsoft as the successor to Windows XP. It was intended for PCs, workstations and laptops, and shares the same code base as its successor, Windows 7. New features included an updated graphical user interface (GUI) and visual style dubbed Aero, a new search component called Windows Search, redesigned networking, audio, print and display subsystems, and new multimedia tools. Vista aimed to increase the level of communication between machines on a home network, using peer-to-peer technology to simplify sharing files and media between computers and devices. Windows Vista included version 3.0 of the .NET Framework, allowing software developers to write applications without traditional Windows APIs.
