I have an X61s (7668-CTO) and would like to do a clean install of Windows 7 Professional on this computer. It has a DVDRW in the ultrabase.
While it has XP Professional currently on the computer, I find that it runs too slow.
1) Can I install Windows 7 Professional on this machine? 32 or 64 bit?
2) Will it make it significantly faster/stable?
I will pay $25 via paypal to anybody who is knowledgeable and has experience in doing a clean install on the X61s unit with drivers/etc....
Yes, in theory, there are lots of posts about how I can do it myself. But the reality is that there is inevitably a problem/issue that arises that is beyond my understanding.
In case you are wondering, I plan on installing Windows 7 Professional because my wife is a teacher so it costs me only $65 for this software. If there is another version which you suggest, I am open.....
Please email me at [email protected]
Thanks
Anthony

1) Yes, you can. Windows 7 64-bit is what I would go for. Now-a-days, the majority of software is compatible with 64-bit. Your computer will have a smoother experience. Some of the advantages of 64-bit is the ability to read more then 3GB of RAM, enhanced security etc.
2) Yes, a clean install of Windows 7 should improve the performance of your X61.
I sent you an email (my email is WheatenTerrier). Let me know when you need help and what you want to do.
Willing to pay $$$ for somebody to help me install Windows 7 Professional on X61s...
