Re: Upgrading From Windows Xp
-----------------------------------
[quote user="Chromium" post="44521"]For XP have a look here:

Also here if you need some more pointers:

I use XP, both 32, and 64 bit, been eagerly waiting for M$, to drop support (seriously). As for security, don't use IE, stick to safe sites, and you'll be fine.

If you're going to upgrade back up everything before you begin. Though I always start from scratch with a fresh install, slow I know.

The linux guys use something called clonezilla, you may want to take a look at it before you upgrade, it could save you much hassle if you decide to revert.

chromium, I've just now watched that guy's videos. He speaks about another of his videos that shows the user how to set up user and administrative accounts and claims that doing that properly will increase your security twenty-fold. I haven't the foggiest how mine is set up, so before I do anything I've got to dig that one up.  I'd rather be rending Posey!  I've probably got the worst case of unmedicated adult ADHD on the books, and all this technical stuff just makes my head spin!
But thanks for the tips :)
