almost to the bottom you will see a modified .dll, download that and replace it with the one in the setup, please note it will not boot anymore, so you'll need to make another partition and then install while in windows to the new partition and will be good.
i first thing i expect in W7 is compatibility with all popular softwares b4 final release ..i think they are working on that.. where vista failed to succeed is there, making most of its trialers to go back to their favourite OS n incompatibility with low end PCs...you know not all people will change their machine for getting/trying a new OS... I stick with vista until W7 is final, coz xp on my machine is not good for leaving machine on always[gets slower n slower]..I have been getting lots of "not responding" situations still, i also would like to see that eradicated in W7
Actually most software is "working" one's I've installed.
Firefox, Opera, Rocketdock, uTorrent, Nod32, Comodo Firewall, FDM, KMplayer, foobar, revo uninstaller, VLC, Newsleecher, WinRAR, so those are working and more I can't remember.
I've had my XP machine on for days and days with no ill effects :)
Wish Home Premium came with Adv. backup features...btw, do you think Win7 will have a new sound scheme?
I think it does, I'm not in 7 now, it has a new theme scheme, no windows xp or vista theme's will work in 7 or vice versa.
If anyone is in 7 now, tell me if you video's are choppy or glitchy, I don't have a supported graphics card and I'm sure that's the reason though....
no problems whatsoever on the videos here.
using ATI 4870
the codecs installed flawlessly. even coreAVC.
SOUND. Sound scheme. Not visual themes.
I'm dual booting between WinXP and Win7 :happy: And it doesn't have any new sounds (all of'em are from Vista), but I was hoping by RC time it would. Keeps things new and less half-assed.
I've had my some of my videos (in WMP12) slow in frame rate when I multitask excessively, but it's only for a few seconds. Nothing major and I wouldn't of mentioned it if you hadn't of brought it up.
I said I thought it did have a different sound scheme, then I mentioned it has a different theme scheme....you can download sound packs.
