That has never ever worked for me until the 7 -> 10 upgrade: 95 -> 98, 98 -> 2k, 2k -> XP and XP -> 7 all failed miserably and required installing from scratch.
And even 7 -> 10 failed without any helpful information= the first few times I tried it (unlike OSX where I've been upgrading and migrating the same system for more than 10 years across multiple machines and versions).
