I have windows 7 ulimate as a full install and it runs smooth , iv just booted up an old hard drive with xp and everything seems so slow..
david ,,buy a 500gig hard drive for less than £40 and put your new w7 ultimate on that and then drag everything you need off your other hard drive to
the new one .
i use overclockers as its only 20 mins drive away but they do a good delivery service

Not really a fair comparison, an old installation of XP will be chocked up with all sorts of crap. A fresh install of XP will still run faster than
Windows 7.

Slightly OT but I recently put new hard drive with XP on my laptop instead of the Vista it had -(Clean install) and find the XP noticebly slower than
the Vista ???????
Back to your question - Maybe it will depend on whether you upgrade to 64 bit OS

With win 7 you have the anytime upgrade service whic Microsoft sat will take 10 minutes to upgrade any install of win 7 to any other. Not tried it as
I have Ultimate, but I'm finding it noticeably quicker than a relatively fresh XP install.
And it's pretty
