UPGRADE WINDOWS VISTA TO 7... 10

QUESTION REGARDING: A model Acer Windows Vista # 7720 - we bought about 5-6 years ago. It's 17 "display, the more ports that are not ubiquitous on today's portable computers, for example: Ethernet, phone, S-video, etc. Before upgrading to Windows 7 and, through appropriate channels, to the W10, please indicate if equipment on this very little use, versatile machine could be compromised in the process of upgrading. Indeed, thanks for all advice and suggestions.
