Product: Pavilion a6752f
Operating System: Microsoft Windows Vista (64-bit)

Hi,

 

We bought a HP Pavilion a6752f in early 2009. It's all stock, nothing has been changed. Although, we replaced our GPU but purchased the same one. I was wondering - is my PC compatible  with Windows 7 Ultimate 64 bit? Thanks in advance! Been stuck on Windows Vista 64bit since 2009.

If you decide to install Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit should be a clean install (formatting the hard disk)

 

After completion of the installation of Windows 7 you would have to reinstall the drivers missing, audio, video ... and applications.
