What's an easy way to install Windows 7...

for computer illiterate's? I really want to try it, but I'm afraid of messing something up on my AAO. Can anyone help?

 

Depends on where you are obtaining 7 from. Legal store copy? Naughty download?

If you download an iso of the appropriate version of 7 and burn the image to a disc then using a USB DVD player install from that. That would be the 100% easiest way.

 

Would I need to fix anything on my computer after that's done? I would want a naughty download.

 

Windows 7 covers most drivers and updates any it doesn't have. The only pain sometimes is having 7 not have the drivers for your network. Then nothing can auto-update.

Just check with your a150 commrades that the ethernet or wireless works without drivers as the acer site does not publish 7 drivers for the 150.

 

Thanks. Do you know of where I can get instructions on how to download it the easy way?

 

Torrent downloads are the easiest, but if you're not into those just ask a friend for a copy. Or just borrow the disc to do the install.

 

I don't know much about torrent downloads. How do I go about doing that?

 

Use this utility and you just can't screw anything up: http://store.microsoft.com/Help/ISO-Tool

I will respond later with more info on finding an ISO.

 

Thank you so much Drjones. Looking forward to that.
