| 787473 | 2009-06-30 21:59:00 | Why do Linux users feel the need to post to this thread?? We already know you aren't interested in buying Win 7 and we couldn't care less. The fact that most of us use Windows in spite of Linux being free, speaks wonders! I was hoping for an upgrade from Vista Home Premium to be around $100-$150 but fear I will be disappointed! |

And besides, different things suits different people. If Windows suits you, then that's great - from what I hear, Win7 is pretty darn good. And if you prefer something else, then that's fine too :). | Erayd (23) | ||
| 787476 | 2009-06-30 22:56:00 | I'll pay for a Professional upgrade, however much it costs me. This is the very first time I've been impressed with pre-beta versions of Windows. I really really think it's worth paying for :) Microsoft have done a fantastic job with Windows 7. IMO, this will turn significant numbers of Windows XP users onto 7. C'mon people - if you bought a PC with Windows XP today, it'd be the equivalent of buying a computer in 2001 with Windows 3.11 on it... go figure :p |

| 787481 | 2009-07-01 02:53:00 | Forgive the OT post, but standby issues are pretty complex. My current W7 would only wake from sleep once per boot on my previous P5QL-EM mobo. Changed mobo to P5Q Pro and sleep mode is now spot on. Don't ask me why! Pretty drastic solution to a standby issue! :D Interesting though because I'm running an ASUS P5B-VM motherboard myself, maybe a problem with certain ASUS motherboards? Rod J: Look in eventvwr under applications and find any hanging apps. Also make sure that all drivers are updated. Blam Yeah, I've had a look there for problems and I've looked for updated drivers. I did have a problem with my Lexmark Z513 printer and I suspect my Logitech keyboard/mouse combo might be have a problem too. I'll keep working on it. My apologies to the OP for hijacking this thread somewhat. :thanks |
