774150 2009-05-16 01:57:00 Hi,
Sill me
First I downloaded and ran CCleaner- and lo and behold all the drive that shows as having 3.26 Gb on it has now gone
so I am now well into the new download--35 mins left
BUT silly me - I have Nero on my XP OS but have not put it into W7- no bloody wonder it would not burn-thanks WT for that
Sorry I am monopolising you guys , but I sure have learned something- my Ram cards etc where the pooter is automaticly accepting it but Nero - how dumb can I get :rolleyes:
well I await results- by the way I am opening with Internet Ex

774151 2009-05-16 02:09:00 ?? Ccleaner wont tell you anything. It just removes temp files etc. Probably would have been better to do a search for something like 7100.0 Speedy Gonzales (78)
774152 2009-05-16 02:18:00 Wanuitech-its not the power of the cards, its just that the card needs to support Direct X 9.
I know that - the point / Example was you dont have to have a powerful, modern card to run W7 to do basic functions ;)

774153 2009-05-16 04:51:00 Hell no I'm running on an old P4 i915, with a radeon x300/x550/x1050 graphics card and 1.5Gb of RAM machine at the moment and finally got it talking to my print server after I did the auto updates, then win 7 would allow me to add the port for the server. So yes nothing flash at all although just done a dxdiag and it says verion 11 gary67 (56)
774154 2009-05-18 05:23:00 Hi all,
Just back from repairshop-old graphics card was black from an arc at some time- was still working but should not have been able
Put in 1 gb more ram,plus the video card (GeForceDDR400 RAM ) and, --
ouch ! all icons became huge like in safe mode- had to get the "set at lowest rate",reading back up to 1152X864" set up now O K
Type density though is very week in - vid card ?
Query:
I have the dvd with the downloaded 2.6 GB file of W7 RC burned to it, but it won't "open with Internat Explorer"--- and I cannot see the recommended one
Plus
I am to boot off the disc but when I press"enter" to so do nothing like an install comes up

774155 2009-05-18 05:38:00 ?? Why would IE open it ?? It should bring up its own menu, if youve burned the ISO to DVD. Once you put it back in the DVD / burner Speedy Gonzales (78)

774158 2009-05-18 06:34:00 Put the DVD into the burner then power off the computer.

Check the BIOS to change the boot order CD/DVD first then Hard drive.

The DVD should be bootable if you burnt it correctly.

You should get a message to press any key to boot off the DVD.
