Window 7 Home Premium ready to rock!
« on: November 03, 2009, 11:56:36 AM »
MONDAY 2nd NOVEMBER...  Upgraded both my laptop and desktop with Windows 7 Home Premium... outta sight! Both PCs have experience ratings 1.2 points higher than what they had with Vista.  Here's the specs...

LAPTOP                                     DESKTOP
2 Ghz Celeron D CPU                    3 Ghz CPU Intel CoreDUO
1 Gb DDR2 RAM                           3 Gb DDR2 RAM
INTEL Software Graphics              NVIDIA Ge-FORCE FX Series GPU 256 Mb

Old OS:  Vista Basic                    Old OS:  Vista Home Premium

Even though my laptop had no dedicated GPU Card on-board, I still got full transparency with Aero Glass.  Also I found that processing time was a tenth of what it was with Vista.  VERY HANDY especially with multi-tasking!

BYE BYE VISTA... Won't Miss You!!! ;D

Nice to hear a good review (especially one of Home Premium).

BTW, nice Core 2 Duo.  Makes us P4 w/HT users feel small and powerless.  :P

Thanks javajolt, built desktop myself 18 mths ago... got sick of buying cases that were riveted shut by the manufacturer!  I'll upgrade the laptop when the warranty expires...

I did the beta test thing and pre ordered 2 copies of Win 7 Home Premium.  It took me a little bit to load it on my Win XP computer but I really have had good luck with Win & so far.  Although I didn't have a driver for my NVidia card, I downloaded the Vista driver and it seems to work well.  I have some older games that Win XP refused to load, but Win & loaded them up without problem.  I only have 2 problems.  1.  My onboard modem doesn't work anymore.  (I almost never use it, but I would like to have it if needed.) 2.  I can't play Call of Duty any more  :(    As I said everything else works better than before (although I don't like windows live mail that much -rather have good old OE) Win 7 seems faster and more stable and easier to use.  I Like It!
