I have a brand new PC that came with Vista. I plan to put W7 on, but I also would like to swap the graphics card and possibly add SSD alongside the existing HDD.
1)Would I be better making all these changes before booting it off the W7 disk, to avoid changing hardware once it's installed?
2)What's current thinking with W7 and a SSD/HDD setup? Windows on the SSD but swap-file elsewhere? Applications on the SSD, data on HDD? I will do development on the PC so should C++ source files go on SSD?
3)The PC has 4Gb RAM. Will W7 32bit still only access 3Gb? Not sure why a PC coming with Vista 32bit has 4Gb anyway, to be honest.
Thanks.
