Upgrading an Operating System and the follow-up Things to do

Upgrading an Operating System is not much of a task but one should always remember to make a back-up of all data before initializing the installtion process to be on the safer side. This will save a lot of careless blunders playing spoilsport to the operating system upgrade party. For starters, the upgradation process starts automatically by itself once the ‘Upgrade CD’ has been inserted into the CDROM. The next step is to choose ‘Upgrade’ option and not the ‘Fresh Install’ when prompted. There will be a prompt to upgrade and it will also ask which ‘File System’ to choose from. At this point, remember that using the same file system is always a safer option instead of taking the option of a new file system. This is the most valid way for upgrading an operating system.
The upgrade process does not take too long and after the operating system has been completed, the first thing to do should be to do a quick check on all the applications and see if they work. Reinstall them if they fail to respond or work. Any other complications with it can be resolved by checking up on the operating system vendor's website. One should also do a quick check on the hardware devices and figure out if they function properly. In the event of any hardware device failing to function after the upgrade on the operating system, then immediately the right driver should be deployed for the hardware. This support is also available on the manufacturer's website. A user can always get back to it for further reference.
