Upgrading to Windows 7 XP to Win 7 If you’re upgrading from Windows XP, you’ll need to do a clean install of Windows 7. You’ll have to reinstall your programs. Your data will be wiped off the hard drive. So, back it up. Vista to Win 7 If you have a Vista machine, you can do an in-place upgrade. You dont have to reinstall your programs, and your data shouldn’t be affected. However, there are some Consideration - First, if you switch from 32- to 64-bit or vice versa, a clean install is needed. Whether you need a clean install or not, play it safe. Back up your data before installing Windows 7. It is always good idea to backup all your data and programs - be in safe side backup everything rather than to feel sorry later .

You don't lose any documents while installing the software, but it may take a while to download and install the program( may be more than 5 hrs). You may lose your illegally obtained software ( I'm not sure in this case).  Here is one of  the features of Windows 7-
