How do I do a clean install with Windows 7 Upgrade?
0marrcus asked:
I keep reading conflicting info about whether a clean install can be done with Windows 7 Upgrade. I’ve read that an activated copy of Vista must be currently installed on the hard drive. Is this correct? Since I already have Vista installed, can I just leave Vista as it is and perform a Windows 7 install on a clean partition on the same drive?

Chris asked:
Up until last week, I was able to have two windows open, and able to log onto each of my yahoo accounts. Last week, it seemed to change. Now if I am logged onto my mail account and then open another window for my business account, it will only let me have one email account open – the same on both windows. How can I get it back to how it used to be? Thanks!!!

TW asked:
Another asker asked how she should decorate the area around her bay windows. Those answers (benches, plants, wicker, etc) were helpful, but I am more interested in window treatments.

I’ve always liked power windows. Something happened to the driver side window of my 1997 Saturn, it fell off the track or something. Should I take this opportunity to convert the windows to power windows? How much does this cost? Is it worth it?
