Hey.

I have Windows Vista Home Premium and would like to upgrade to Windows 7 Professional. Is this easily done? Is it just a matter of installing 7? Also, would all of my installed programs, games etc. and saves be kept through the transition?

-Thanks

Yes, all your installed programs will be kept through transition. I would however recommend a clean install.
