PCmover
® Windows
® 7 Upgrade Assistant™
The fast and easy way to upgrade to Windows 7!
Three easy steps to upgrade your PC to Windows 7:
- Install and run PCmover on your PC. When prompted, select OLD Computer and continue through the
wizard. If prompted for "Method of Migration", select
Windows 7 Upgrade Assistant.
- Install Windows 7, select “Custom (advanced)” and do not format your hard drive.
- Re-install and run PCmover. When prompted, select NEW Computer.
Helpful Hints
- Any reference to “old” (or “source”) PC is referring to your PC
before you install Windows 7.
- Any reference to “new” (or “destination”) PC is referring to your PC
after you install Windows 7.
- Be sure your hard drive has sufficient free space to install Windows 7. If you have more than
20 GB of space, you are not likely to have any problem.
- Because you will need to reinstall PCmover after installing Windows 7, be sure it is accessible
– on a CD, USB flash drive, or saved to C:\PCmover.
-
Print out and carefully follow the user guide (below).
Documentation
Warning: Because installing Windows 7 is irreversible, it is recommended that you create an “
image” of your PC in its current state and save to an external drive. This will allow you to
restore your PC (in case of problems or dissatisfaction with Windows 7) or access this “archive” to
retrieve any data that currently exists on your PC.
