It is – and done it myself without noticeable errors during the public beta – possible to use drivers for Vista in Win7, since te driver-model is almost identical

Real problem is only if there arn’t even drivers for vista.

I would bet it was the RC1 and not the final RTM

There aren’t any for Vista either! I have a Dell Optiplex GX270.

As a student you can get Windows 7 for only $43. Good until Jan. 3rd.

It is actually $30 if you are happy just downloading it, but I paid a little extra to get an actual physical CD of it. I downloaded it too, but I also have the sealed CD pack if I decide to resell later.

Sry, but you should have looked for drivers before you bought the OS…
It’s known that if the wern’t already drivers for Vista, where won’t be any for Win7..

Btw: Your “Dell Optiplex…” says nothing; It’s just the name Dell gave to a bunch of pc-components they assembled to an pc.
True information would be: which GPU-Chipset (e.g. Nvidia 285 gtx)
which Mainboard-Chipset, which printer…

You should look for drivers on the websites from the company who actualy engeneered these chipsets/etc.
