I have a Aspire 4530 laptop that I wish to upgrade to Windows 7 from Vista Home Premium. I read online that Acer would supply an upgrade for free?

    Hi sueleehall,

     

    Unfortunately, that is not correct and we do not have an upgrade option to Windows 7. When Windows 7 originally launched, Microsoft offerred a free upgrade. It was a time sensitive offer that has since passed.

    I have ASPIRE 4720Z with Vista Basic. I want to upgrade to Windows 7. Window adviser says you can do it, but have advised to take your opinion too. Can you advise whether this upgrade can be done.

    Hi @kamalakar1947,

    You should be able to upgrade to windows 7 as there are drivers available for this chipset.
