Transfer to the new operating system

I am running Windows Vista on my laptop and one morning it would not load. He would get to the Welcome screen, and then it would just sit there and spin.  So a friend of mine uploaded Windows 7.  Now, I need to know if I can locate and transfer my files and stuff from vista to 7? I also need to know the process step by step, as some of this kind of thing just baffles me. Thank you.

The term 'downloaded Windows 7"immediately alarm sounds, there is no downloadable license to Windows 7 If you need to make sure that installed is legal, because it could lock at any time.

The next problem is that it install Windows 7 on. If it were the original mainly hard drive Windows 7 install can I erased everything off the hard drive.

Looking for disc system for a Windows.old directory. The installer of Windows 7 may have moved the content from the previous Windows installation in this directory. When you open it I hope you will find a subdirectory users and there should be one for your old system user name. Which will contain old Documents, music and pictures folders and content can be transferred to the new folders in library work.

Programs that were installed on the old Vista would need to be reinstalled from the original to the new Windows 7 system support, they cannot be copied.
