How will this install once downloaded?

 

Can this download be used to replaced XP? Obviously I know it does not just "upgrade" like Vista does -- but replaces XP altogether.

Windows 7 > aging XP. I haven't verified this personally, but a buddy of mine doing a dual boot XP and Win 7 on a Core i7 system found Windows 7 to be faster than XP in real-world use. Take that for whatever it is worth - I haven't researched benchmarks or did comparisons myself.

 

You have to burn 7 to DVD, not CD...CD doesn't have a large enough capacity.

 

You should format and do a clean install on any OS you may install.

 

It is noticably faster than Vista...XP has never been on my machine, so I can't compare that myself.
