Windows 7 Help

Hi everyone,

As a lot of vista users know, Vista has some problem with old Application, Games etc and as I heard Windows 7 is more efficient that Vista so I would like to know if on Windows there is still those problems?

Thanks in advance for any help

Windows 7

Microsoft just made the beta versions available on 12/3/08 for "technology enthusiasts, developers, and IT Pros." For everyone else, the company recommends waiting until the final release. The final version is not expected until approximately end of 2009.

I know about that Thanks but I would like to know from who has test the beta and know if they got that problem or no more...

I'll take some screenies for you, though the most change has come under the hood.

It's built on Vista. I heard that it is actually very similar to Vista in that anything that works on Vista will work on Windows 7 and anything that will not work on Vista will not work on Windows 7. Also, some of the useful features of Windows 7 will apparently be ported back to Vista through patches and possibly Service Pack 2.

All in all, it seems like just an upgrade on Vista, sort of like Win98 was to Win95. And we all know that Win98 (SE, especially) was a good deal better than Win95, so we can expect Windows 7 to be better than Vista, even with all the similarities.

Yeah but Microsoft mentioned that lot of internal changes has been given to Windows 7 for it to work more application well.

Yes and no. What they are really saying is that driver software and Vista compatible software will not undergo any major changes in Windows 7. In other words, if it works in Vista, it will "most likely" work in Windows 7 with no problems.

This is in effect a placebo....The Mojave effect if you will. People hated vista(for no reason) , therefore Microsoft rebranded it. Of course there are some changes, but it is mostly the same as Vista. I laugh when I heard the great reviews windows7 is getting, as this proves that people has a definite agenda against vista.

I also think it is an attempt by MS to blind-side people. Vista has not sold well (or at any rate has not been installed very much), so they make it look like a new OS (i.e change the interface mostly), and then they can charge all over again for what is really Vista SP2....or am I just an old cynic ?

This is a really stupid question, but...

In Windows 7, in my start menu, I have two links in the left pane for Documents. When I right-click to delete them, I see no option for deletion. I have disabled the two options for displaying all recently opened programs and items. Does anyone know how I can delete these two things from my start menu? I'll attach a pic to show you guys. Please help me.

Yeah I finally download the Build 7000 and i'm using it as only(primary) OS. It is largely different in terms of performance than Vista and XP. I found it very fluid OS and respond well. I think MS make some changes in the resources gestion. The style is very nice and I like the taskbar as it helps a lot for founding everything and it does not take lot of place when you have lot of program open.

To dsphantom5927
Normally it should have something for delete as for me I have it but for my program I recently open. Maybe due it is Documents then you can't do it but have you try to open some new program and check if it put the program in the list?

I would love to get my X-fi drivers to work =/

DaMak420, try right clicking on the driver file and select "troubleshoot compatibility", go through the procedure, and hopefully it will install then. At least my X-Fi drivers did without any further problem.

Is this any help ?
