You were wandering? Where to?

Create an image of your system partition with an imaging utility before changing the OS and you can always revert.

ok ..thats cool...how would i do the image of my os? i forgot how to do that.. i have  my restore discs..could use them?

Using a Restore CD will wipe your data...
For imaging i highly suggest Acronis True Image...though it's not Free.

Macrium Reflect has a Free edition and it works rather well...

[jamie009]

thats tru.. ill make an image of my OS and all that now and may try a diff. OS later

You are out of luck if you haven't grabbed Win7 by now...
The DLoad of the RC is no longer available.

which computer is it? if it's an assembled one..probably you can create a partition and install windows 7 on it...and if you dont like it you just have to format the partition on which you installed windows 7.

The OP can't do that unless he already has the download.  The RC isn't available for download anymore.
