Windows 7 to Vista

[CRPishere]

Hi all,

I'm thinking about trying out Windows 7 RC and I'm wondering if I will be able to go back to Vista, without a clean install, if I don't like 7, unlikely, or can't afford to upgrade once the free period is over in 2010, more likely. So will that be possible or will I have to start over and reinstall everything from scratch?

Once you upgrade to win7 you wont feel like going back to Vista. However, you will need to reinstall vista back if you want to remove 7. If you want to try win 7 RC without reinstalling vista in future, simply install both and dual boot them. See here:
