I hear everyone says so... Im capped on my adsl now - so i cant get any info on it :mad: I hear its what vista should have been; so its much better i take it?

Maybe all the graphical goodies; but just far more better performance and compatibility ?
 
Ive been using it for some time now and I havn't found any problems..as long as you have a internet connection plugged in while installing it'll install every single driver update for all your hardware without even bothering you about it. It also installs alot faster than vista..I installed it in around 20-30min.

The whole look and feel is well rounded and alot smoother. Probably the best thing about windows 7 is that it won't suck on your hardware like vista does. I havn't had any compatibillity issues with any hardware or software thus far. Its what vista should have been and a hell of alot more!!
 
Very nice! Sounds like i should definitely give it a shot!! Can you install straight from XP or do i have to format?
 
Its better to format..So you can make sure all your old drivers are definitly all gone..but that's just my opinion.
 
XP for me. Couldn't get myself to upgrade to Vista yet, although I don't specifically have a problem with it.
All the people I know, do not have problems with Vista. At least compared with the screams on teh internetz.

Nope, it's the beta version of Windows 7. Ends August I believe.


My driver issue is mainly to do with customizing fan controls, the rest works fine [LAN drivers, sound drivers etc] so I'm too phased by it.
 
Windows 7 > All. I'm thoroughly enjoying it and I've experienced exactly 1 problem with it (BitDefender won't update for some reason).
 
There is no sound in the cut scenes of mirrors edge in win7 and you can't play cod4. It kills your mp3's without a hot fix. I really don't know why people put a beta OS on their daily pc...
 
I play cod4 on mine and I don't have any issues!!
As for running windows7 on my daily pc's, I don't have any problems or issues with it so why shouldn't I??
 
LOL
