Upgrade vista basic to Windows 7 and keep the WEP key

Hello. My current setup is windows Vista Basic and I have a WEP key on my pc, but have lost the hard copy. I want to move to W7, but do it by steps by going on Vista buisness then W7. Is there anyway I can make and keep my network settings, because if I lose the WEP key I will be not able to access my Wireless hub and will be with the internet.

I mean, that is, if I update rather than clean install that it will keep the network and password parameters. Thank you

Hey Cheese22

Vista basic to vista Professional is not an upgrade path

to be done with a clean install using a version of full vista which wipes business the hard drive clean

I suggest you if you wishdo the foregoing you have set up the network again settings

and we are prohibited in these forums to help you with forgotten WEP key password
