XPS 720-Windows 7
Hello all,
I was considering getting Windows 7 for my XPS 720 (I have Vista 32 bit and know that I can only do Windows 7 32-bit, unless I get the full version of Windows 7 64 bit and do a clean install.)
I downloaded, installed and ran the Windows 7 Upgrade Advisor from ole Bill G and it states that my system is compatible, but also states that Dell has additional information available on their website and gives a link to click.
I click on the link and it lists a number of Dell machines that are compatible with Windows 7 (excluding the XPS 720.)
It lists the 710, 730, 730X, but no 720. Was this an oversight? or are there hardware requirements that need to be considered before the upgrade? If so, then does anyone know what additional requirements need to be met in order to proceed?
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

I've installed Windows 7 pro 64 bit on my XPS 720 with absolutely no issues. I did a dual boot install so I kept Vista (just in case) so best thing I can tell you is clean install works great and all the drivers came down from Windows update.
