Comments on: Upgrading from Vista to the Windows 7 Release Candidate http://www.starkeith.net/coredump/2009/05/08/upgrading-from-vista-to-the-windows-7-release-candidate/ What you get when my brain crashes...

That's a little bit too much work, even for me, at this point in time. But maybe I will give it a try in a few weeks or so, who knows... I just don't have the patience for it right now.

No info at all, just back to Vista after about 5 hours of chugging away... A sidenote is that Windows 7 runs fine on the same hardware from a secondary partition. I'd love to hear if you get upgraded. Ben So, same story here!
