But most Windows users (I've read figures as high as 80%) today in 2009 are still running good old Windows XP from the year 2001. And that would be fine if anybody actually used Vista. By that I mean an "in-place" upgrade, or one where your existing applications and documents are all preserved. If you believe the talking heads, Windows 7 only upgrades from Windows Vista Service Pack 1 (or Vista SP2).
So why hasn't everybody already upgraded from XP to Windows 7?Īh, the XP upgrade issue. Bottom line, Windows 7 does run well on older hardware. And in terms of actual system call overhead, that too I have found to be barely higher than in XP. In all, Windows 7 has barely double the disk footprint and double the memory footprint of Windows XP SP3 (what most of you XP users are using out there today), far better than Vista.

No more digging around looking for various device drivers CDs. For as long as you have Internet connectivity, Windows 7 automatically downloads the correct drives for most devices. The legacy device support in Windows 7 is near flawless.

As I showed back in January, even machines with only 8 gigabyte hard disks were able to install the Windows 7 beta, something that was impossible to do with Windows Vista without some serious hacking and re-burning of the Windows Vista setup DVD.
Windows 7 has lower hardware requirements than Windows Vista, and runs beautifully on every machine I have installed it to. Since January I have literally installed the Windows 7 beta (and then the release candidate) onto dozens of my PCs and Macs - Atom mini-ITX boards, my Atom Acer Aspire netbook, my Shuttle X27, old Pentium 4 machines that crawled under Windows Vista, old Dell Pentium M laptops, my Macbook, my Mac Pro, my iMac, even a few AMD machines. While Windows 7 did not officially release until October 22 of this year, anybody in the world suffering through Windows Vista has had the opportunity, and should have, upgraded to the Windows 7 release candidate months earlier. Microsoft followed up the beta with a free Windows 7 release candidate this summer, which does not expire until well into next year. This was profound for a couple of reasons - first, that Microsoft would actually post a totally free Windows beta release to the public, and second, the beta that was immediately far superiour to Windows Vista. This past January, while I was down at Macworld Expo 2009 being disappointed by Apple (read Macworld Expo R.I.P.), Microsoft surprised the world with a downloadable Windows 7 beta. Windows 7 finally is worthy of such similar praise. It was back then, having beta tested XP for several months and using the XP beta as the demo platform at Macworld Expo New York 2001, that I felt compelled to write this XP tutorial urging people to upgrade from DOS-based Windows releases (Win95/98/Me) to the NT-based Windows XP. In October, Microsoft finally launched Windows 7, the best Windows release since the launch of Windows XP exactly 8 years earlier.

What I will show you is how to do the one thing they all tell you cannot be done: upgrading from Windows XP to Windows 7 without losing any of your documents of applications and without re-installing Windows or your applications from scratch. I am not going to go into the detailed features of Windows 7 or list 15 great reasons to upgrade to it - plenty of web sites and print magazines have already told you to do that. But that's not what this posting is about. Your purchase of Windows 7 will hopefully drive up the value of that stock. Yes, you can easily upgrade Windows XP to Windows 7īy Darek Mihocka, President and Founder, įull disclosure: I like Windows 7 very much and have been buying up Microsoft stock.

Windows 7 recognizes the PCI slot in the device driver, but WIN XP doesn't, it just says " com 1 com 2 LPT 1" in the ports section of the device driver whether or not the PCI card is even attached or not.Emulators Online - Upgrade Windows XP To Windows 7

The new mother board didn't even come with serial ports, i guess since their soo old. when I select a com port to connect to, none of them work. in the xp emulator, it gives you the option to connect or disconnect the USB ports but not the serial ports. The plotter connects to the comp via a serial port.
the program works fine,but now I cannot run the plotter. My son in law built me a super fast and big one with Win 7. my computer has been slowing down and it is 10 years old. I use a Roland camm m24 plotter that connects to my comp via a serial port.
