WinBlows 7 ( beta )

[{2399}Straycat]

UPDATE:

I was able to get UT to run, finally. Not in D3D though. OpenGL, and a few other ways work in 32bit. My guess is, DirectX ( it says DX11), even though it will install into this OS, isn't really installed. Im hoping MicroCrap will address this issue soon.

Other the that, Im really liking how this OS runs. I got all my driver issues solved in the 64K version. This systems tests very well at pcpitstop ( + 1100 more points as aposed to XP Pro ( 32K version ).


We'll see what happens when it hits the market.

I tested mutiple Games with the OS such as UT, ut2k4, UT3, BF2, COD4,COD5 and Steam releases. All seem to run great since nvidia is working with Microsoft for the drivers for Nvidia users. Straycat I have a SB Titanium Fatallty the drivers Installed with out a hitch from the CD it detected the OS as a vista OS. To get the best out of win7 64bit is the way to go. The only flaw I see with Win7 is that media player doesn't index from a network drive which sucks because I have over 600 gigs of music, hopefully this will be resolve but I doubt it because of the new user group config. Vista is like Windows ME a flop. Remember peeps it is yet still a beta but for a beta it is worth it.

600 GIGs of music. I am going to have to bring up a large drive and do some beer drinking with you and BBQ of course! SOmetime this spring
