   Did you run this
   http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows/downloads/upgrade-advisor
   to see if your computer could handle windows 7?
   
   Original specs:
   RAM: 512MB PC2700 DDR SODIMM (2 memory slots. Max 2GB)
   HD: 40 GB Hitachi Travelstar
   
   How much RAM and did you install a larger hard drive?
