well this is for anyone that doese not know about this. if you are using windows 7 there are already anti viruses from the bigger companies made specificlly for windows 7 and they end when the beta is over. so they are free for you to use fully and legally. Norton 360 v3 Win7 : Link Removed...

Windows 7 is now crashing for me. Its happening after I installed Kapersky Technical beta. I installed it because Norton 360 was going to expire in 2 days. So now when I log in Windows 7 I can only stay for about 1 minute then it crashes showing a blue screen. I didn't read all of it, but I...

Okay, so there's been a lot of talk about which is better, which runs leaner, which takes more space, etc. So I decided; Hey! Why not test them all, in a controlled environment, allowing them the exact same treatment to get as accurate a result as possible? Good Idea? I think so too. So here...

I decided to try out the beta and put it on my sons computer since he was needing a format anyway. It is an AMD 64 bit processor with a Seafate 75 gig IDE 2 gigs of ram and an ATI 1950pro. Ran Vista fine. Anyway, I did a reformat of a the hard drive and all goes well it copys files and then...

I installed Fallout 3 on Windows 7 Beta x64 and was given the dreaded xlive.dll issue as with most people. I followed the following instructions and successfully installed BOTH! Hope this helps others!!! :D

Hi, I'm using Windows 7 with a HP Compaq 6715s notebook without problems except one: when watching youtube videos with Firefox 3, Windows 7 crashed now 4 times since I installed the beta (about 2 weeks). The screen then turns black and I have to shutdown the notebook manually with the power...

I installed this on 7 and found out that MS doesn't have a PFbackup for 7 yet, no surprise considering the newness of the OS so I could not import my personal files to Office 2007. That being said I uninstalled it and installed office 2003 then I imported my backup files and had my data just...

Hey all, new to this forum. Thought I would pass along what I have working. I have installed the 32 bit version of Windows 7 with the following software: Acrobat 9 Pro Photoshop 9 CS2 Kaspersky Anti-Virus 8.0 beta for W7 The Admin tools pack for Windows 7 (googled it) Blackberry Desktop...

I have both Vista 64 and and Win7 build 7000 32 bit. Should I upgrade Win7 32 to 64, I primarily use Win7 now, but I still don`t want to get rid of Vista just yet since 7 is still a beta with limited support here and there for some applications. Tri-boot is no go since I will be testing OS X on...

Hi all, I am having a problem with my Win 7 Beta. Everytime I boot the machine the system won't continue booting after I entered my login password. A blank desktop with the revision number appears as well as the mouse cursor (can be moved). But after this nothing more is loaded. I cannot...

Hi Guys Just wondering if anyone has tried Windows 7 for any form of audio production software? I'm currently in the process of setting up Cubase SX 3 on the x86 beta and so far have ran into no problems (which is great, I ran into problems with Vista!). I've tried some VST instruments...

Hey everyone, saw the forums and thought I'd ask for some assistance. So I've got a WD 150gb Raptor SATA Hard Drive. I know I've got it, I'm using it right now with Windows XP SP3 installed. I downloaded the latest public beta for Windows 7, burned it to a DVD and reset my machine...

Ok so im downloading windows 7, Im always curious how the next 5 years of the computing world may look. Easyiest way to do that, use the beta os for a few weeks. I was one of the first folks on vista beta, (when it was publically avalible.) And Im looking to do the same with win7, but I have a...

Ok, here is the problem. I have Windows XP installed on one hard drive and Windows Vista Ultimate on the other drive. On Windows XP with just Windows Firewall enabled, all of my ports are Stealth according to Shields UP! , but on Windows Vista Ultimate, some ports are open and others are just...

I have searched the web all over and no post on this subject. My Adobe Photoshop ce2 and newly downloaded beta Photoshop CE3 crash the whole Vista system on start up of the program. With CE2 it did it when I tried to register the product. With CE3 just start it and bang-o:mad: its crash and...

Hi there sorry if this is a double post, if this topic has already been covered please direct me to the right place. I have a 64 bit system and am excited to install the 64 bit version of Vista RC1 on my system. I am wondering if I will be able to use it as my primary OS. I currently use my...

Because Windows Vista is still beta software in development, help with problems is scarce. If you are a part of the beta program and have a copy of Windows Vista, you already know that there will likely be problems and incompatibilities since the software is still in testing. Once Windows...
