Windows 7!!! omg amazing

I'd assume the beta version is the full functionality model, so I'm guessing it will easily support 12GB. When the product is actually released it will likely differ with version, similar to Vista, but then the information should be easy to find.

I'm rolling the dice and going with Windows 7 on the new PC...

What drivers for video cards are you guys using? I've been using windows 7 for a while now, and about once a day both my screens turn purple and the pc just freezes. When I boot up again there is no error or whatever, just that i shut down windows incorrectly.

I have an 8800GTX and I'm using the 64-bit Vista drivers from NVIDIA, version 181.22. I only installed those a few hours ago but they've been fine.

For the last few weeks I was using 181.20 and those were solid too.

I went from xp(32) to w7(64) what a nice change 4 more gigs of ram makes. I appreciate the thread.

Tx.

I wonder if they are going to give the poor sods (myself included) that bought Vista a nice free copy of Windows 7 when it goes retail ... actually, do I want a copy of it? Meh!

Windows 7 has been good for me so far after a week of HEAVY use. I've got it dual booted with Vista Ultimate 64bit.

My specs are:

Intel C2D E8400 @3.8ghz
Gskill 8gb RAM
Geforce GTX260

i havent had a single issue with it on my lappy. but it wouldnt install on the compy. it stuck on that login looking screen after you boot from the disk. i let it sit for about 45min and nothing. i turned it off and went about my business. anyone encounter this?

I was having dual screen issues with the gtx 260 and my old 2nd screen. the last drivers work good. I attribute the increase in performance in dalaran(worst zone) to the lack of BS installed on my comp. Ahh, nice fresh install... :)
