  • Full System Over Upgrade?

    Hey, I have just got my copy of the Windows 7 Upgrade disc. I'm upgrading from XP 32-bit, and every time I attempt to upgrade I get an 0xC0000005 error, as I have previously posted on the Windows 7 forums.

Keep the old system disk in the system so I can boot back into XP until I'm confident that everything is working with 7. I've done a 'proof of concept' run on cloning the ...
