Microsoft suggest a fresh install. They Made it, I would listen to them.

My response is: don't be lazy, because it will only nip you in the butt later on. A fresh install forces the computer to refresh drivers, temp files, and all the other crap that windows dumps on the PC. A fresh install usually only takes a few hours anymore anyways, which isn't much more than a typical upgrade.
