Hi I am running Windows 7 on an average machine, and it runs great. The only time it gets slow is when it's loading the login screen. Is there a more basic login screen like XP had where you type the username in instead?

ok, so I updated yesterday (1 critical update i had been delaying). It asks me to reboot and I comply. I get back into Windows and login everything looks okay. Today I turn my laptop back on, as it loads (i see the little windows logo glowing) I get a BSOD with no specific file or anything, but...

After the upgrade from Vista Home Premium to Windows 7 RC my disc usage went from 172 to 177. Is this to be expected? Is it because I did an upgrade? Or is Win7 Premium that much larger? Is there a folder hiding somewhere with installation or rollback files that could at some point be deleted...

Hi everyone, I've been using Windows 7 Beta (6.1.7000) for a while and I haven't had any problems getting programs to install and run, until now. I recently tried to install Autodesk Inventor 2010 and the installation failed 2/3 of the way through with this error: The error is fatal so the...

I'm a casual user of the internet and enjoy working with Beta's and I'm tempted to install W7 and get rid of my Vista Home Premium and stick with 7 until the release.....is this an OK move or will I regret it? I'm assuming I could roll back and reinstall Vista and of course I would back up my...
