Let me see a new pc for £350, or a windows 7 oem DVD for £49 on a pc that is fine....

Drivers - the windows upgrade checker should have checked that - as i'm going form 32 bit to 32 bit hopefully there shouldn't be many problems, but will doubtless be something.

Very sad to lose XP - it boots faster to the desktop than any other pc I've tried that runs windows 7, vista or 8, all of those machines have more memory too...
