Windows 7 BETA


Recommended Posts

Has anyone tried the Windows 7 BETA yet?

From what i've seen and heard of it so far, even Mac fans seem to be really impressed with the new features and the speed of it compared to Vista.

I put off installing the Beta incase it was full fo bugs, but now i've gone to download it the registering it has ended. Luckily Microsoft are still giving out key's, so i've just got a key and started downloading it from Usenet.

so, to anyone that's tried it, what'd you think?

tried it, its awesome when it works.... HOWEVER!!!

so many small weird problems like not being able to rip a cd to my hdd, a number of driver issues etc tho thats to be expected..

and 1 huge prolbem!!!!!!

it keeps being shit and deciding to want to run a check disc most of the times when i switch it on, it runs it, then starts it again and again etc, the only fix i found so far was booting XP running the check disc and restarting in 7 after that.

as such, i'd wait!

I'm not really too fussed for using it for daily use, it's more to just get used to it ready for the official release. I was gonna backup my laptop and try it out on there this weekend considering I never use it.

Other than the bad points above, what's the best new things about it?
