    I would save everything. I am not sure there is an upgrade version to Windows 7 and really requires a whole new OS install. Will lose your FSX install then.


    All your Profile (Desktop, Libraries (My Documents, etc) gets put into a Windows.old folder.


    I am sure others are coming though to answer your question.

    BTW which version of Win 7 did you buy?

    You can install "on top" of Vista, But must do a complete install with XP.

    You'll be good with the upgrade then and you will be most happy with W7.
    I also saw a frame rate increase when I went from Vista 64 to W7 64
