I think you can upgrade to win 7 x64 since your cpu is a 64bit processor. You will need to upgrade your ram to the max 2Gb from the 512Mb that it ships with & since XP's support will end in april you'll be using your system without security & OS updates. The graphics memory of 64Mb is the only shortfall & means you will not be able to use the Aero themes. Go here to see your specs & here to see Win7 min. req. You can also go here to verify if your system will be able to upgrade by going here to download the upgrade advisor fro Microsoft. Best of luck!

I hope this is helpful to you!

I was unable to find windows 7 drivers for this system model so some of the features may not work.

Try avoiding Windows 7 on this one.
