I am currently running windows 7 and wish to upgrade to windows 8. I was also wishing to completely wipe my computer in the process to start fresh. I am a little worried that the upgrade wont give me that option, and that i will have to buy the full version. Any thoughts?

I upgraded to Windows 7 Home Premium from XP. I have 6.1 SP1 build 7601 running on Pentium Dual Core E5200 @ 2.5GHz with 3.0 gb of memory. Windows Backup has never worked very well - I made a few backups early on, but wanted something more, so I tried several Back-up programs with mixed results, but nothing seems to work - I get hangups, schedules don't run without baby-sitting, error messages, etc. So, anyway, I'm thinking maybe I'd go back to Windows backup and just live with its shortcomings, but now it doesn't work at all. I go to Control Panel, click on Backup under Security; it says Windows backup has not been setup, and when I click on "set up backup", I get a set=up window that just hangs and never gets any progress. So, I have a two fold question: How can I fix Windows 7 backup? AND/OR Is there a decent program out there that will run consistent backups and images, etc, without a working Windows back-up? Thanks

Hey all, So, my computer came with Windows 7 Home Premium installed. It's got a sticker on it with the license number. However, the manufacturer (Gateway) did not provide me with an installation disc. Sadly, my computer has recently become infected with malware. I want to do the safe thing and perform a complete re-partition, re-format, and re-install. How can I get an installation disc for Windows 7?
