can i upgrade my laptop from windows 7 to windows 10 without formatting it

I have genuine version of windows 7 ultimate. Now i have reserved windows 10 free up gradation. I don't have my recovery driver cds. In order to upgrade my laptop is it necessary to format it cause if it is mandatory then its a big problem to me because i dont have my driver cd.

No its not necessary. (can't you get the drivers from the manufacturer's support website anyway)

Make a backup plan since computers aren't perfect and a problem can potentially arise. Starting fresh is recommended by some people, but I personally don't plan on it.
