529573 2007-03-02 23:22:00 I am currently running AVG 7.1, and as most of you know now there is a new version of AVG 7.5.

Now I am wondering what’s the best way to upgrade to 7.5?

Is it to install 7.5 over 7.1?

Or

Uninstall 7.1 & do a fresh install of 7.5?

Also has any one had any problems with AVG 7.5? e.g.: computer slow down etc..?

Thanks in advance :)

529574 2007-03-02 23:32:00 Have had no problems with it.

Easiest way is to download the install file and run it.
It will detect an existing version and ask what you want to do.
Select Repair / Reinstall and this will overwrite the old version.
Don't forget to run an update once installed!

529575 2007-03-03 00:06:00 I've done an unistall and reinstall on two computers, both times no probs. I guess as mentioned the other option will be perfectly fine too. Greg (193)
529576 2007-03-03 01:15:00 the repair option is what is reccomended by the maker and also is better because it retains all your connection and other settings wihtin the prog drcspy (146)

What CYaBro said . :thumbs:

I've updated AVG on several XPPro and XPHome machines and two Win98 machines with no problems . Some were running Avast! as well . Still no problems .

529581 2007-03-04 20:48:00 I had trouble updating it on a machine running Win2000 .

In the end I had to un-install it, run Easycleaner and install 7 . 5 from scratch .
