Hi,
I am planning to upgrade from a 32 bit os (Vista) to 64 bit (7). As there is no straight upgrade path, and I do not want to spend an entire weekend setting everything up with no immediate rollback (apart from an image), is there a way I can make a virtual disk with Windows 7 and then copy this to the physical hard drive and override my host OS (Vista)?
So in short I have Vista as my host OS, I setup 7 on a VHD, but in the end 7 becomes my host OS just like Vista is now. I know Windows 7 allows you to mount a VHD but this is not the same thing. Imagine a brand new PC you order and it is already setup with an OS and dev software (I'm a coder) - this is what I am trying to do.
Thanks
