Hi, Peter:

 

I don't foresee any issues at all.

 

There is full W7 32 and 64 bit driver support on your notebook's support page.

Hi Paul,

Thanks for your quick response.  I'm in the process of getting together all the components to update this laptop including purchase of win7 Ultimate, a 256GB SSD and Office 365 to be followed by more software reinstalls then folder/file xfers etc.

 

When I've successfully completed the exercise I'll be back to update solution acceptance

 

Hoping it all goes well

Peter

Well Paul, what an ordeal that was, it took 2 days to download and install all the Win7 updates but finally its working OK and much faster than PX Pro too.

Its got 3GB of ram and will take 4 but wont upgrade till I notice speed issues

Anyway thanks for your encouragement and I'll make it as a success, Thanks Peter
