    With Vista Home Premium you can upgrade to either 7 Home Premium or 7 Ultimate, not 7 professional.

    if it can run vista chances are it will run 7 with ease.
    you can download a test from ms but 7 has much less hardware issues than vista and you can use vista drivers in 7 aswell so you should be ok.
