How many machines are you migrating? Can I suggest you look at how the Microsoft Deployment Toolkit might be able to assist, I know a number of organizations are using it, and it might make your life a bit easier...

Lenovo T61p?

Great HW, but Windows 7 still doesn't get my vote. For an OS that requires a clean install from XP, its driving my company nuts. I've migrated a portion of my machines over to Macs, and its been great. So please don't even suggest that my Macbooks be installed with Windows 7. Attempting challenges are meant for those who don't have work on their hands; I just want to get my work completed (and my company's) and go home to the wife (ugrh!). My wife ain't too patient with me coming home late, especially, when I have to try and migrate the rest of the XPs over to Windows 7!

I am usually on my Lenovo T61p or my custom built PC, but this was more helping someone with a query on the how... and I love a challenge. Lucky my wife is a very patient person :-)

for pete's sakes (and Balmer's), stop messing around with the Mac! Bigger crime is messing around with your wife's machine! Good luck there!

re: Windows 7 – Acer Aspire 9500 Wireless Drivers

Matt — Thu, 15 Jan 2009 21:24:06 GMT

YES!!! Finally got it working, I was trying to install the drivers from the acer support website that I linked to above. Not sure why they didn't work but finally tracked down the model number for my wireless card and downloaded some drivers from the Intel website http://downloadcenter.intel.com/Product_Filter.aspx?ProductID=1637 and followed the previous instructions and it worked.

Thanks for your help with this.
