I want to install Windows 7 on my laptop. I have Windows Vista right now. When I am reading the instructions it says that all of the hard drive will be erased and that I will need to reinstall programs. Does that mean all the programs I have installed myself will be erased or does that mean my computer will have nothing on it after I install Windows 7?

Hello, I just bought a new Windows 7 PC for my personal use at home and have set up a secondary user account for my girlfriend to use. The problem I am running into is programs which I’ve downloaded (i.e. Chrome, Firefox, AIM, Gtalk, etc..) do not appear when she is logged in. Is there anyway to get them to show for both user accounts without my having to download and install them twice? Thanks!
