Win 7 will use more resources and make it slower. It is a nice netbook, but still a netbook. Plus you need to consider drivers for, LAN, sound, and video.

Try testing with Win 7 advisor,

Did you run the windows 7 upgrade advisor before upgrading to win 7?
I am asking you this because in most of the cases when the drivers are not available in win 7 then that wizard helps you knowing it. You might have to reinstall the drivers once again because the drivers are not installed automatically in win 7 installation, they need to be installed explicitly.

Windows Live essentials 2011 was writen for Windows 7 users only..
You need to uninstall windows live and reinstall the previous version of the live software.

I'm assuming that you are upgrading XP to Win 7 just a guess. You have to download the upgrade advisor from Microsoft first it will set the upgrade in motion. Click Here to get the upgrade download. If you have computer experience with computer upgrading there are other ways to go about it however you will have to completely wipe the drive and set the disc in the drive and make sure it boots to DVD or CD ROM as the first boot. So if you are not good at this go with the advisor purchase a legal copy of Win 7 so that you have a legal serial.
Then you may have to hunt for a driver or two. Win 7 is usually great with upgrading drivers during the install make sure that you are online doing the upgrade. I hope this assists you. If you have the original disc for the lap top it has all of the drivers and software that came with your purchase. If you have issues with drivers just use the drivers discs that came with your computer to re-install them. Great question!

You will need new drivers for Win 7. Before attempting to go to Win 7, run the Microsoft Upgrade Advisor and see what issues it lists: http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=161223 (since laptops have on-board video that may be an issue). You will be doing a custom install from XP and have to reinstall all of your programs and drivers - many will be available. Several XP programs will not install in Win7 without some work (compatability mode or the XP mode virtual machine (in Pro or Ultimate). Upgrading your software may be needed unless you have the latest version that supports XP through Win7 or want to do the work-arounds.

In addition you would be wise to check for any BIOS updates for your specific machine and apply those. Windows 7 is a good OS if you have 2 GB or more of memory. It can run with less but it isn't better than XP in that case. The biggest difference is that Win7 will be supported by Microsoft for updates for a longer period (patches); XP will lose that support in the next few years.

I hope this helps.

(I converted an XP desktop to Win7. However, my video card could handle the OS and I have 2.5 GB of memory and a Windows Experience Index of 3.9 from the system.)

I downloaded the Internet Explorer 7 installation from http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?familyid=9AE91EBE-3385-447C-8A30-081805B2F90B&displaylang=en and let it finish then rebooted again.

Opened Microsoft Update and it again found available updates KB953838 and KB938127 and both installed successfully.
