| 818344 | 2009-10-09 09:22:00 | In the past I was not impressed with Windows 7, but have recently installed a later edition. I installed it on a PC AMD dual core with Nvidia chipset & 2gb Ram. Put all my old software in it, some ancient like Dos Professional File, SuperVoice for Windows 3.1 & Calendar for W95. They all work perfectly. Drivers were found for everything except the Video card. These devices included a 56k Win Modem, 56k USB Modem, USB Sound card. W7 boots & shuts down very quickly, is nippy, and is very stable. This is a good one I think! |

That's why I'm going for home premium. I don't need the extra stuff such as XP mode and if I do I'll do it manually as I still have a spare licence |

| 818353 | 2009-10-10 00:24:00 | I've only run Win 7 RC on a few computers & managed to get the BSOD once (hadn't got one off those in yonks!). Also personnally didn't like the changes from Vista so I've decided to wait until it has been 'out in the wild' for awhile until I change my OS. - just cautious I suppose |
