I will get the info and get back to you later. Away from that pc at the moment.

It sometimes hangs on shutdown. Since I cleared out all of the non-essential startups through msconfig it has been hanging on shutdown less often. I actually reinstalled it once as well, just to see if any of the software I had installed might have been the culprit. Backed up the drive...

I am having a problem with Windows 7 RC 7100 taking forever to boot up. 10 minutes is not unusual, neither is getting stuck in a loop and never booting. I have tried the clean boot with no difference. On occassion it will boot up in less than 2 minutes, which I believe should be the standard...

Works now I never did figure out the problem with trying to run Witcher EE earlier. I began having even greater problems with Windows 7 and ended up ditching it. A couple of weeks ago I rebuilt my computer and tried Windows y RC again...this time in the 64Bit flavor. Installed The Witcher EE...

Recently built new PC. Installed Windows 7 RC build 7100 64bit. Issue 1: Sometimes boot takes 10+ minutes. Sometimes won't boot past "Windows is Starting Up" screen. Sometimes boots in under 30 seconds. Issue 2: Sometimes takes 10+ minutes to shut down. Sometimes Won't shut down past...

Recently installed the 32bit client and am installing the games I still play. Mass Effect is not installing. Any assistance from those who may have run into similar problems and found a fix would be greatly appreciated. Otherwise, if you have any ideas, I'm open to suggestions to try to fix...

Same problems here I just installed last evening and tried to run. Got the same "Insert Original Disk" message. I tired run as Admin and Compatibility Mode to no avail. I broke down and started looking for a No DVD hack. Downloaded it but went to bed before I installed it. I will try it...

Some Difficulties Background: I installed 7 on an older XP box running on a Athlon XP 2800+ with 3gb PC400 and an nVidia geForce 7800. All of my newer games ran fine at mediocre to medium settings on XP. Currently going through and installing the games on Windows 7 now. What I have so far...
