Is it hard to get use to using Window 7

as far as saving file and the like


My old laptop the screen when hay wire.........> took apart come to find out the plastic connector to the screen was torn on one of the four connector to LCD screen...> :depressed: no way to fix it now it just for parts

This computer was about 5 years old Compaq Presario

The new is the same but a lot newer and faster

    I like the idea how ever

    I was NOT able to get the outside video to work so I parted it out

    The other problem I had with it was that it ran slow to very slow at time and would lock up at time

    I found out that this new Compaq Presario has Windows XP driver so If I have a hard time with Windows 7 I can us the fairly new hard drive that I had on the old hard drive
