    Windows 7 Vista vs Windows 7

    Windows 7 is grrrreat! I take back all of the bad things I said about Windows 7. I messed up my initial installation by using some third party malware because Windows 7 kept on nagging me for antivirus. I think Windows 7 should have enough security built in that it does not rely on nag...

    Windows 7 Just incredibly bad

    stueycaster It is beyond impossible to correctly diagnose anyone else's issues unless you were at their desktop with one of those remote assistance programs. And even if you were at their desktop with full control you still could not diagnose hardware issues correctly all of the time. CPUs...

    Windows 7 Just incredibly bad

    Philgman It finally dawned upon my dumb ass that since I have concluded that the uninstall of Norton Internet Security 2009 is causing these problems it may be wise to simply reinstall NIS 2009. Eureka! After I reinstalled this crapware my Live Mail worked just fine! I could download a file...

    Windows 7 Just incredibly bad

    Philgman Nice guess but not at all correct. I have it all figured out now. When I first started Windows 7 I kept on getting this nag messages about not having an antivirus program. So I installed Norton AV 30 Day Trial to shut Windows Up for a while. Then I started getting even more popups...

    Mike Mike, I think I cooked my own goose here and installed some third party malware off of the hardware installation CD's. That is the only thing that makes any sense.

    Windows 7 Just incredibly bad

    I think I know what I did wrong I about fell off of my chair when IE would not download a printer driver from the Epson site. Once I calmed down a little bit I started to try to think this through rationally. All new parts. i7 CPU and motherboard and nVidia series 9 vid card and 1 Tb hard...

    Windows 7 Just incredibly bad

    I tried to turn down the internet security setting to see if I would get any better results. I got a result alright. Windows 7 refused to allow *ME* to access the internet until I allowed *IT* to reset the internet security settings to *ITS* liking. Words cannot describe my disgust. An...

    Windows 7 Just incredibly bad

    This Windows 7 is so useless that mere words cannot describe it. Fresh install on a new hard drive. No third party antivirus or security programs whatsoever. Connected directly to the cable modem with a good old CAT 5 cable. Nothing could be simpler or cleaner, right? Try my Cox email...

    Windows 7 Vista vs Windows 7

    7 Woes If a person still uses Outlook Express then Windows 7 may not be the best choice. I would imagine that it does have some great advantages over Vista but it they are hidden deep in the system they do not exactly warrant an upgrade because there is no "wow factor" to be had. Since...

    Windows 7 Vista vs Windows 7

    Things are getting worse All Microsoft ever wants to do it make more money. They cut out Money and Outlook Express because they did not drive any profits. Too bad for me but good for Microsoft. Two or three years from now they will come out with another operating system that is even worse...

    Does upgrade wipe out Outlook Express If I am using Outlook Express on Vista and then I upgrade to Windows 7 will the Outlook Express still be functional?

    Windows 7 Vista vs Windows 7

    Windows 7 H.P. 64 bit for sale cheap What a mistake I made in purchasing Windows 7 the day the newegg.com offered it. I am like the biggest fan Microsoft ever had. Keyboards and mouses and pretty much every home version of Windows going back to 3.1. Workgroups, 95, 98, ME, Vista, all of...
