    I have my windows 7 discs and im on the fence about upgrading. Im a gamer and i don't want to upgrade if Win7 64 is going to make my games perform slower. Also if i do upgrade is there a certain way i should go about it?

    What model? There are instructions on the Sony Support Site that detail upgrade or clean install fro WIN 7 and which drivers you'll need in advance and more importantly what order they need to be installed. As for gaming can't comment on Vista versus Win 7. But will tell you Win 7 is much snappier and just overall better than Vista. (I liked Vista btw...)
