I received an E-Mail from another forum about an article written by an expert on Windows 7, after reading it I thought he recommends installing the latest Nvidia drivers which are specifically for Win7, (I was using the Vista drivers which worked great), after installing the Win7 Nvidia drivers I had a half inch gap down the right side of the screen and no amount of altering the settings would get rid of it, so back to downloading the Vista drivers and reinstalling them again.

Another tip was to alter the system properties to speed it up, (mine is not slow), so I thought why not, after following there advice I had to reboot only to find that my screensize had altered, the aero face no longer worked and the desktop icons had become twice the size, so back into properties and reset it all, then another reboot.

Their were other tips but after trying those two I had become fed up.

What is it with these so called experts, they say alter this and that, but never tell you what the consequences could be.

Rant over. :twisted:

I am glad I do not subscribe to that forum, as i am still learning, that would have put me of for good.
I am still running Windows 7 and like it.

I will buy it when it is officially released.
