I have a quick question or two.
So, MS is pretty clear in warning me that all programs and data will be lost upon a clean install / upgrade from XP to Win7.
Do old drivers get wiped as well? (i.e. do I need to manually uninstall all of them to get windows 7 drivers for all my hardware?)
Also. My GPU is a Radeon x1400 running inside of an Inspiron 6400. The upgrade advisor tells me that this card may not be able to support aero. Is this normal? I'm using 3rd Party Drivers, btw (Omega ati drivers). I have also seen it somewhere suggested to use Dell's Vista drivers for this card after upgrading to windows 7, since Dell doesn't have Windows 7 drivers available. Is that OK?
Thanks for the help
