This will sound noob but can i know how to install the new Operating Systems by Microsoft : Windows 7 i really want to try this .
Here is my specification :
Intel core 2 dual (2.6 )
Intel DG45ID
geforce 9600 Gt
Memory: 2GB DDR2
320 gb HD
DVD and HD-DVD
Windows 7 Beta recommendation:
- 1 GHz 32-bit or 64-bit processor
- 1 GB of system memory
- 16 GB of available disk space
- Support for DirectX 9 graphics with 128 MB memory (to enable the Aero theme)
- DVD-R/W Drive
- Internet access
When you follow the download links, you get a link to insturctions on how to install.
Since this is a beta - don't use on a machine you have critical data on (at least not without backing up first), and don't use as a main OS.
Even though it is a beta, it seems pretty darn stable to me!
Thanks for the reply krs360 , but i want to know for how much time i can use this Beta version .
I think it is valid until around October or something - it's all in the release notes when you download
thanks again for the reply mate, this is the last question
Can you suggest some things to look for in the Windows 7 Beta i think you know more about this os :biggrin: :ohyeah:
Please reply .
The Beta will stop working on August 1, 2009. To continue using your PC, please be prepared to reinstall a prior version of Windows or a subsequent release of Windows 7 before the expiration date. You won't be able to upgrade from the Beta to the final retail version of Windows 7.
It's not all that different from Vista - just GUI stuff really.
Go to the Windows 7 page on microsoft.com, and click on the new features link - explains all the new fun stuff!
I have not had a single issue with it yet, been using for a week or so. All my hardware works, some of them with pre-loaded drivers, some with Vista drivers. I have had most of my apps running, and a few games.
If you have a spare machine, just whack it on there and play to your hearts content! The whole idea of large scale beta testing is to find errors, so just thrash the hell out of it and feedback to MS!
Have fun! :thumbup1:
HEy thanks a lot guys you were really helpful for me with this windows 7 thing.
really thanks again.
My pleasure!
Now if someone would just answer my thred about BSOD I would be a happy man!! :thumbup1:
