If you’re thinking about installing Windows 7, one of the first things you should do is verify that your hardware will work with the operating system. Microsoft makes it easy to find out your computer is ready for Windows 7 with the Windows 7 Upgrade Advisor.

The tool scans your system, program and devices. Once the scan is complete, it generates a report that tells you whether your computer meets the system requirements and if there are any device or program compatibility issues. In addition, the report provides you with guidance on your Windows 7 upgrade options.

You can download the Windows 7 Upgrade Advisor for free here.
