Yes, you absolutely can - but it slows down your computer.
Here are some of the options:
Use a virtual machine if you want minimal modification on your mac.
If you have a computer with Windows Me, XP, or Vista, then Windows Movie Maker will already come installed on it by default. Windows 7 does not have it; however, you can manually download and install Windows Movie Maker onto a Windows 7 computer.
It won't install. The update code looks for parts of the Vista code to backpack itself onto. Therefore, if all of that code is missing, no install.
Yes, it does.
You have two choices. First one is to use virtual machines (VMWare is one of the best ones). Or you can make your system dual boot. For that you need to have at least two partitions large enough to hold Vista or Windows 7. First install Vista in the first partition, second, install Windows 7 as a new installation in another partition.
your computer might not be powerful enough to run vista. but to be honest i hate vista, get windows 7. Are there any applications running?
Yes, it works with XP, Vista and Windows 7.
Simple. You install 7-Zip.
You first need to check your computer can run windows 7. Then one way you can do it is through windows anytime upgrade which was introduced in Windows Vista. type upgrade into the start menu and press enter. Or you can buy the disc box set from any good computer store or supermarket and follow the instructions provided to install.
After you install a device or update a driver for a device on a computer that is running Windows Vista or Windows 7, the operating system may not start.
XP, if you can scratch Vista and go for Windows 7
Windows 7 is about 4 million times better then Vista. no actually its not. it can make your computer slower and isn't actually that different.
Windows Vista is an operating system, not an application. It does not run "on" Windows 7 so it cannot be said to be "compatible" with it. Drivers and applications written for Windows Vista will continue to work on Windows 7. The reverse may not necessarily be true. Vista and 7 use the same kernel, so there shouldn't be anything that doesn't work on 7 that works on Vista, but compatibility mode should fix most problems you would have.
