    First of all you need to buy a copy CD or DVD of Windows 7 to upgrade your Windows vista.   Then put it in the CD or DVD Rom drive. Click on the Install option once display on the screen of your computer. If auto-run is disable then you will open the DVD drive root to run setup.exe file. Here you make sure to use the Adviser to help in case of having any problem in installing or checking the Compatibility of you personal computer or Laptop.

    When you run the setup, you will see two options which are:

    - Install Now

    - Check compatibility online

    Here you will click Install Now button because  you have already verified the compatibility of your system by using Windows 7 upgrade adviser.

    After that further two options will be shown on the screen:

    -Do not get the latest updates for installation

    -Go online to get the latest update for installation


    Of course you will go for updates if you have the latest Windows 7 version. It is always advisable to go with the Recommended Option to avoid  inconvenience in installation.  Being an IT Specialist I recommend you that always accept the terms and conditions for license agreement and then move Next for continuing the procedure of installation. Again two options will be shown on the screen:

    - Custom

    - Upgrade


    As you need to upgrade your system, so you will choose Upgrade option for upgrading from Windows Vista to Windows 7. For that you need press Next button. Here, Windows will again check for the compatibility and will produce the report. Windows will highlight the problem and will save the report to the desktop if it finds any incompatibility issues. Windows 7 Setup will proceed further without any interaction if there is no incompatibilities issue.
