    Hi all,

    I just have a quick question. I'm about to backup my system and then clean install W7 Pro over Vista Business. However, I remembered that I could what was it - burn one copy of a Vista recovery disc that's in my system recovery partition or something? Could anybody clarify - should I burn that first? What happens to that partition during the clean install?

    Thanks!
