Microsoft Windows 7
So windows 7 is no longer in beta testing, what are you all going to do? =D
I'm downloading it right now to give it a test. As soon as I finish burning all this anime I have on my HDD to DVD, I'll be installing Windows 7. I heard a few good things about it, so I thought I'd give it a try. I used it while it was in beta, wasn't bad but wasn't great. Hopefully it will be much better now since its now finally out of beta! I'll let you all know how I like Windows 7 Pro. In the meantime, read up on it here, [Only registered and activated users can see links. ] I can't find a good source for the tech stuff, but friends of mine say there is a lot of tweaks that makes windows 7 better than vista. All that seems to be on that page is newby info..  |

Re: Microsoft Windows 7
Yeah i rekon that win7 is a lot better than vista but when I installed the RTM of win 7 64 bit all my games won't run I don't know y maybe it was the graphics card or a problem with win7 64 bit. The win 7 beta and rc both worked fine but I used the 32 bit ver. So now I am duel booting with win xp.

If you haven't already, try different graphics driver if you can find one, or reinstall it. |

Re: Microsoft Windows 7
Well I tryed different gpu still the same problem. I have tryed many different drivers still doesn't work. Also did a fresh install of win 7 a couple of times but nothing changed so I'm starting to think its a problem with the OS because the final final ver hasn't been release yet or I've got a bad dl. Or maybe my system doesn't cope with 64 bit although I got a new comp this year entirely new.
