I want to upgrade my work laptop from XP to Windows 7. Is it possible get the network domain information of the laptop so that after a clean installation of Windows 7, I can apply it so that the laptop can be part of the network again? Thanks.

It would be best to contact your system/network admin for you domain information,

  • Domain name
  • Computer Account

Also check that Windows 7 is approved for use on the office network and work computers.

I can't find anything that says for certain that it does transfer the information on the domain you're transferred to, but Windows Easy Transfer does provide facilities for transferring files, settings and network connections, etc from XP to Windows 7.

See also Easy Transfer FAQ for details of what can be transferred
