canadiandiamondSo, Windows 7 is now installed, via an upgrade from Vista which took about 2-3 hours to complete or thereabouts. It's not a huge change, though I'm liking it so far. I had a little snafu when I first tried to install the upgrade and it recommended uninstalling a number of programs, one of which somehow ended up making my D: drive disappear, wtf. It's something to do with a burning program I installed once but haven't used in ages, I think, something that involves removing its drivers affecting the other DVD-ROM drivers or something. So I luckily was able to do a System Restore and then installed Windows 7, and I'll take that other program off later. I don't use it so no worries anyway, really.
It also said I should remove iTunes, but I didn't, and upon running iTunes post-Windows 7 update, iTunes just patched itself / ran its own setup and it's just fine, it even kept the play counts and playlists I'd made before, which is nice.
I'm hoping between this upgrade and (likely mainly) the BIOS flash update from last week this'll solve most of my computer woes. Here's hoping, anyway! Now off to check and see if LOTRO will still work or if I have to reinstall it. Ugh, I sure hope I don't have to do that. Cross your fingers for me!
