In a situation where I was preparing to upgrade a user from windows 7 to windows 8.1 there are several things, I would check to ensure the upgrade goes smoothly. First I would ensure the users system is running a healthy version of the current OS. Then I would ensure that the system I am upgrading meets the requirements of the new OS and that I have a good product key for the new OS. In this situation where I am upgrading from windows 7 to windows 8.1 I would perform an in place upgrade following the steps outlined in chapter 8-2 of the textbook. I would also take note of all the peripheral devices the system is using prior to the upgrade. Once the system has finished the upgrade, I would ensure that it has network connectivity. I would also check that all peripheral devices that were working with the system prior to the upgrade are still working. If they are not I would visit any vendor sites needed to install the latest versions of drivers compatible with the new OS.

If I was preforming windows OS upgrades on multiple computers across a large network, I would look at using a system center configuration manager (SCCM) to automate the update. If a company is looking to upgrade its entire network to a new version of windows it is often completely impractical to upgrade, it all manually. One process I have used in the past to upgrade networks with tens of thousands of systems is to automate with SCCM and then ID any problem machines and have the customers bring those machines to the IT department for manual install. Without using some version of this process it is completely impractical to upgrade large networks.
