Hi,
I own a Sony Vaio VGN-SZ650 notebook, bought in October 2007, with MS Vista Pro, 4GB of memory and enough disk space. I was planning to upgrade to Windows 7 with the knowledge that if Vista works, Windows 7 will work.
I have discovered two days ago that Sony, on his support site, informs everyone that the VGN - SZ650 notebook is NOT windows 7 capable. Surprising enough for a two year notebook.
When I asked by mail the reasons to Sony support the answer was ridiculous and suggesting to by a new computer!
When I used the MS Windows 7 upgrade advisor the result was a suggestion to update several things, particularly my graphic adapter which is not Aero compatible. Surprising. No update seems to be available.
In fact it seems first that Sony do not want to produce the necessary upgrade for Windows 7. Is it acceptable for a 2 year computer?
Second, if Vista works Windows 7 will not work in any case.
What do you think? May I try to upgrade despite this negative advice? What else could I do?
