How to check your PC is compatible for Windows 7 Upgrade

Want to check if your pc's hardware or software is compatible with windows 7.

Microsoft's Windows 7 Upgrade Advisor tool automatically scans your system and provides a report of any potential issues, as well as steps to resolve them.

Download: Windows 7 Upgrade Advisor

Note:
Before you begin: Be sure to plug in and turn on any USB devices or other devices, such as printers, external hard disks, and scanners, that you regularly use with the PC you're checking.

The Windows 7 Upgrade Advisor scans your PC for potential compatibility issues and lets you know about your Windows 7 upgrade options. Within minutes, you'll get a report that tells you if your PC meets the system requirements, if any known compatibility issues with your hardware, devices, and installed programs are found, and gives guidance on what to do to before installing Windows 7 on your PC.

System Requirements

* Supported Operating Systems: Windows 7; Windows Vista; Windows XP Service Pack 2
* .NET Framework 2.0 or higher if running Windows XP
