Seems to appear alot like Vista, but it's fixed and that's a excellent factor. Set up was rapidly and straightforward.If you have been waiting like I have been for a decent upgrade from XP and Vista wasn't a fantastic option, I say that win 7pro is certainly worth a second appear.I like it and because XP nvidia drivers wouldn't support tri-sli or quad-sli, now I'm going to run tri-sliƓ 8800ultra)on 1 of my gaming computer's and quad-sliƒ gtx295)on my other gaming pc. You may possibly have a challenge acquiring all the drivers you might need to have for all the devices you have, despite the fact that I didn't have a problem with any of my devices. As every single day passes much more and far more drivers will be updated by all manufactures I ordered the 64 bit version today, given that the 32bit seems to be ok with my method and devices.With the XP mode that win 7pro has you can run your xp programs that wouldn't run on vista.**Note** I've observed folks questioning how a lot ram will run with win 7 32 bit= 1x4GB or 2x4GB will use 3.5GB of ram, based on your video cards amount of ram. If you want to use more than 4GB worth of ram like 4-2GB sticks 2x8GB you will want a win 7 64bit os.Be sure you delete your old os(reformat drive) ahead of installing win 7pro OEM. Keep in mind this is an OEM install and not an upgrade or retail version.

Installed on a Mac via bootcamp, went just as smooth as the retail version. (Have performed this for several friends). Significantly less than half the price than the retail counterpart, and let's face it - who calls microsoft for support anyway. If there is a issue, google it. Failing that, restore from your clone. ..dunno, it's still Windows? if your installing on a mac, right after you activated, installed the bootcamp drivers and so on, boot back into OS X and download WinClone. Makes a carbon copy of your bootcamp partition which can be later restored.

It is an amazing OS. It is what Vista should have been. It is actually a successor to Windows XP. *Note* This is a Con on the OEM license not the Windows 7. *Note*If you get the retail copy or an Open license you can install 32-bit or 64-bit. But if you obtain the OEM you are restricted to the disc you buy (i.e. if you acquire 32-bit, you are stuck with 32-bit) As a organization I am stuck working with 32-bit Windows right now to help legacy applications ࿀bit apps with 16bit subsystems). Apps are slowly getting upgraded to native 32bit or even 64bit, but I would be nice to be capable to upgrade to 64bit Windows in a couple years when we no longer want the 16bit subsystem. With this license we would be forced to obtain another license of Windows or be stuck using ӯ.25 to 3.5GB of RAM.

It runs extremely smoothly, I really like the highlight to copy function, the new superbar is outstanding, Aero Shake is surprisingly useful, tight integration of legacy drivers even for uncommon hardware, I had a 10 year old PlayStation adapter from radio shack and it installed automatically, no hassle. Excessive prompting at initially but it does get better, honestly beyond that I haven't had a single challenge. It's quickly, attractive, and darn close to flawless as an OS. Microsoft genuinely hit the spot this time, right after the horror that was Vista they owed us a thing beyond ordinary, and they delivered spectacularly.

Pros: Not Vista. Lastly an operating method that isn't infuriating from Microsoft. Runs good on my laptop which isn't going to set any benchmark records. Seems they left nothing out. Only four stars 'cause Vista left a terrible taste in my mouth. Can't figure out the Homegroup thingy. I can't enable teredo which is required for Homegroup to perform. I don't look to will need it to get to files on my other computer and NASes. I guess I don't know what the Homegroup is... Appears superfluous. Everyone says this is like Vista and XP got together and had a child. I say they just did Vista right. I really don't see substantially XP in there. Almost everything is much more streamlined and just tends to make far more sense. And, you can turn off UAC and not get annoying warnings from your traybar. I say this is Vista Mellinium Edition.

The greatest in Windows line I have had so far. Can only be utilized when mainly because of the Microsoft Serial number server. I have often upgraded the new machine I constructed and my laptop, Server will not except the serial quantity twice. If their so difficult up they need to restrict a disk to one particular usage, possibly it is time to look at a much more stable Mac

I assume Microsoft is finally listening to consumer feedback and they are moving in the appropriate direction. Not great but undoubtedly far better than Vista. Microsoft OS's are way overpriced particularly provided their track record. If you are taking into consideration an upgrade, don't ever anticipate miracles from Microsoft. If you like XP (or what ever OS you're employing) and it's not a difficulty then retain it. Let someone else be the guinea pig then make a superior additional educated selection for your self.

I recently upgraded my entire Computer, like all hardware and computer software. I topped it off by installing Windows 7 pro. I bought it from NewEgg at a really affordable price tag. I haven't had a issue with it. What was actually good is how quick the solution was shipped. I got it within four days following putting the order. Windows 7 pro is a nice addition to my upgrade! Practically nothing that I can factor of at this time! Just be prepared to read alot mainly because there is alot more alternatives and additions to wade via! And there are several differences involving XP or Vista and Windows 7. I am nevertheless studying!

Lastly, thank you MS for fixing your OS. I locate it to be far quicker than Vista, less difficult to use and rivals XP in overall efficiency if not greater. DO NOT do an upgrade! Rather wipe your HD. Upgrades have never worked effectively even back with Win 95 so all you haters that did an upgrade. GET A LIFE AND GET A CLUE. Also, if you are operating an app from the 90's, get a grip, it is referred to as progress and if you consider that your old application is going to function appropriately, consider about going back to a clay tablet and return your computer! I ask why men and women think that five year old applications really should run flawlessly on a new OS. That is not realistic. If that app is so crucial, wait to upgrade untill they present a compatible version. If they are out of enterprise, well there is a purpose for that as well. I too hated Vista, I reverted to XP. Windows 7 is a entire new ballgame. Speed of XP and advancements on leading of that, like further safety. Only (again, I can' t use the word I wanted) not so intelligent folks cruse the net and download apps that they do not know about. So if they want to get comprimised, that is their own business, do not blame the OS. Moreover, if you have your Pc directly on the Web with no any resemblance of a Firewall, you are an (I can't use the word I wanted) not an intelligent person and ought to cease utilizing a computer imediately.

Substantially far better that Vista. Smoother more than all. Massive improvements under-the-hood that you could not see at initial. Even using an emulator, our actually old (I imply actually old) arcade games run superior in 7 than XP. The UAC is the largest improvement. It's considerably far more intelligent and significantly less annoying. Don't be foolish and turn it off. You will negate most of the constructed in safety if you do. Yeah, I know, that was the only way to run Vista but Win 7 is a lot more than "Vista-Fixed". As a matter of truth, I like this way greater than OS X. Nevertheless a bug or two, but don't let that hold you away. The new "homegroup" networking point was a little various obtaining employed to. As soon as I started to comprehend the conceptual framework, it acutally is simpler and additional "no brainer" that Vista. XP is SO old school on networking. And speaking of which, I was so ready to leave XP behind, and Vista is such a Kludge. Lastly, we have a smooth, effortless running OS.You may possibly be tempted to feel of Win 7 as Vista sp-three, but it definately is not. Although it is the very same kernel, it is a accurate client and not a gui thrown over a network OS.Right here is one of my favorite components. The discover layout is ultimately valuable as far as file management. MS did choose up some of Apple's OSX's far better capabilities. And that is coming from a person who produced a living in photoshop on an apple os due to the fact the "early days".

Most of the alterations/additions are actually well thought out, and this is coming from a guy who has fought with tooth and nail nearly every OS upgrade due to the fact CPM. New process bar (when properly customized) is *excellent*, it saves time/clicks and is much less cluttered. Graphics are way quicker. On XP I had to set L4D2 to 1680x1050 but in 7 I can run the complete 1920x1200 much smoother than it was. Older games don't speed up quite as considerably, but with new ones even level load instances are quicker. And think it or not, they updated Calc.exe! It's a quite useful tool now! Internet transfer rates are significantly higher than they were on XP, dunno if they optimized stack for real globe or what. I constantly kept XP fairly finely tuned/clean/defragged but Windows 7 is often twice as quick at any given operation. Thumbnail prior have variable sized thumbnails and the thumbnail pictures are generated particularly swiftly. Has built in context menus to rotate photos. Truly properly completed. The networking stuff is fantastic *if* all your routers, modems, wifi cards and so on. are current. Older stuff will operate but it's a discomfort trying to guess where to locate the old dialogs to manually configure network settings. They are in there, you just have to poke about until you find them. Some things are arguably dumb, like to disable the automatic re-sizing of windows when you move them to top/side of the screen you go into the mouse settings dialog :\ Taking ownership of files on pre-current NTFS partitions can be problematic, often it fails on random files for no apparent reason. If I commence L4D2 although Media Player is playing great zombie killing music, it pauses media player. No "sort by file form" by default, now you have to add that field and they call it "Item variety", not "File variety". The fan runs more frequently on my graphics card given that it utilizes 3d accelerator on desktop now. I've been a Windows user due to the fact three.1. They had to drag me kicking and screaming from NT three.51 to NT four.. I went a small a lot more willingly into Windows 2000. I upgraded to XP only to get the USB assistance. I swore I'd under no circumstances upgrade to Vista and I never ever did... but 7 x32 really is a lot superior than XP x32 in each and every way. It's substantially quicker in every respect. You may possibly have to alter a few old habits but for the most part you can customize this to have the classic windows appear and feel while still taking benefit of the new UI characteristics. I despise Micro$oft for their corporate idiocy and their frequent "epic fail" items but this is one particular that's worth paying for, it's genuinely properly carried out. I'll be placing this on each and every Computer I create and I can't imagine anybody ever wanting to downgrade it to XP.

I only have a 32 bit 1.six GHz CPU (Athlon XP-m in a desktop machine), and 1 GB RAM, but it runs practically as well as Windows XP did. And you finally get to ditch the outdated 2K/XP architecture (and obtain the beautiful Aero interface). Some may possibly discover the changes from XP to be confusing, at 1st, but they aren't negative. From time to time it's worth studying a thing new. I was practically tempted to buy Vista when it came out, just for the transform of pace, but it seems I was wise to hold off. This is the mature version of the new architecture for the property/workstation user. Nicely worth investing in, and worth the time in reinstalling. I'm not going to tell you that it truly does something XP can't do (productivity-smart, I mean), but it does give you a fantastic refresh, and it's each and every bit as significantly a good quality OS. Personally, if you have the hardware for it (and who doesn't, by now), I say go for it.

Bye bye Vista! Installed extremely simply and detected my network and display drivers and instaleld automatically generating the set up simpler! Transferring of files from my backup difficult drive was Much quicker with Windows 7 compared to Vista when I upgraded from XP. With Windows 7 and adding a printer it says to just plug in USB device and turn on and it will download drivers, but when I did with my six month old HP P1006, it could not discover drivers. I had to go to their web site and download the Vista drivers (According to HP web site Win 7 drivers not offered but), extract the INF driver files and set up manually. Overall, Happy! Performs good!
