Over the Chrimbo period I Upgraded?? my laptop from Vista to Win 7 (32bit)
It was a complete format/install not just an over Vista upgrade.
So as I have/had VRPC installed on it, afterwards it had to get back on
the LT again.

What I did was this:
Obviously I have backups as I assume you will have.

Assume Win 7 is installed and sorted.

Install VRPC from the CD in the usual manner.
Make sure it's running okay.

In Windows open the Virtual Acorn install directory,
Rename the virgin install HardDisc4 directory to HardDisc4O  (Original)
(Just in case)
Drag in a copy of your Vista version HardDisc4 directory from the backup.

Run VRPC
