Hey guys i want to upgrade to windows 7. I hear they have a compatibility thing which actually works now. Do you think its worth a try?

I mean my PC crashes and catches viruses so much its not funny. I want something more stable. Everything i do needs a update. It sux so i want to do a upgrade to windows 7.

I was thinking about it.

Do you think i can get MPLAB, C18 and the PICKIT2 working on it?

You'll probably have less headaches just doing a clean install of XP...

AtomSoft, if you have the money get yourself 2 1TB cheapies and run them in mirrored mode on a RAID controller. Instant backup in case one dies and read speeds and random file access can be increased dramatically because it can read each drive independantly. It's getting less and less practical to back up the amount of data on a modern PC so mirrored hard drives is really a good way to go.
