Unless your using some wacky raid array - you won't need any preinstall drivers.

Yes - you can do a disk format (quick only) as well as repartition if you feel a need. Its an "advanced" option but I don't recall exactly where at.

And my own printer issues wasn't 7's fault - I just bought the printer yesterday and installed it - had to start the spooler module (as I had tweaked and disabled it previously) so when I rebooted - it didnt autostart. Have set it to auto and all is good.

Edit - installing - be prepared to be suprised - its fast, needs little user input, and pretty automatic.
