@Raymond Sanders84, send me the link.

Code:

Just save this as something.reg and run it :P

You can probably just strip out that "send feedback" part too
But honestly? The smartest move is just to wipe the whole beta off your damn computer entirely. :F^^

Look, I'm just a jerk who refuses to accept anything without solid arguments.

Yeah, if you can find a free download from Microsoft.

Zachary Martin4 said:Don't mess around with that. You can barely run anything on 512 Rama with Windows XP, let alone Windows 7.
I'd say don't even bother trying the install because it won't go well.

And what's the worst that could happen if he tries? xD

People say Windows Vista is more demanding than Windows 7, but I ran it without any issues on an old slotted Athlon 600 overclocked to 700 with 512 Rama [133 MHz]. For the stuff I mentioned—web browsing and messaging—it was fine.

Yeah, I agree there isn't a massive difference between Vista and Windows 7, so I'm sticking with XP.
I have to admit though, the Windows 7 taskbar looks freaking awesome, and I can't wait for them to port it to XP. PowerShell 1.0 is already ported to XP, and 2.0 should be coming once Windows 7 finally drops for all the unhappy users xD

Of all the drivers you could have possibly brought up, you pick the ones that can't even be installed from XP to Vista. xD

Just find some drivers for Vista—use NVIDIA instead of ATI—and it should run on Windows 7 without any issues. I guess. Maybe.

Look, as for the RAM and the CPU—well, at least you’ll actually be able to see what’s going on. If your PC is just sitting there doing basic office work, browsing the web, or checking messages, I guess you’ll get by without any major headaches.

After using this for a few days, I gotta say—I don't like this beta at all. Honestly, even if the folks at Microsoft think it’s good, they probably shouldn't even release a public beta.

Windows Vista would be better if it just had decent hardware support [hint: right now, you're screwed without internet]
The taskbar is better, and PowerShell is alright too, but overall, all that talk about how it’s less demanding than Vista? That’s a total lie. It would be great and profitable for users, sure, xD. But Bill definitely wouldn't care about that. So, screw it. I'm done messing around with this until the final version drops.

Based on the benchmarks online, Windows 7 crushes both XP and Vista in everything, even boot time [it's a beta, for God's sake???].
Reminds me of that massive disaster with Internet Explorer 8 beta xD, where it absolutely bombed all the tests. 😁 😁

I'll probably drop some more Windows 7 performance editions on RapidShare in a bit. xD
Just upload it and you can mess around with DirectX 10.

I didn't even bother installing any drivers. Everything just works out of the box, except I did update my graphics card—using the Vista driver, which seems fine enough.

There's one massive headache, though: Steam isn't playing nice at all.😢🤷👎😕😠

Windows 7 runs pretty smoothly. I might try jumping into something like Call of Duty 4 or CSS soon, but if everything stays lag-free, I guess I’m sticking with this setup. :P
