Just need quick advice, is there an activation patch for enterprise? Or shall I just use the 120 days? As you have to activate it differently to Ultimate?
I like bum.

Anyone having a similar problem as me?
When Windows 7 has been running for a day or two webpages suddenly takes 2-3 minutes to load, after a restart the problem is solved.
Downloading stuff isn't affected by slowness.
Vista could run for a few months at a time so it's rather annoying having to reboot every 2-3 days..
Edit: i can ping the sites i try to connect to just fine and with a quick responce, the problem exists in both IE and FF.

Does Windows 7 go by the size of the drive or the speed for the ratings? I got a 10000RPM drive conntected which is only 71gb and the rating to that is 5.8.

It must or there must be something wrong with your drive because my 250gb 5400rpm drive gets a 5.6 rating.

If you ever figure out, mate; let me know.
I get 5.9 for mine -- a Samsung SpinPoint F1, considered by most experts to be one of the best non-SSD/SCSI HDDs you can buy.
What the hell DO you need to get 7.9 on WinSAT HDD score? Four SSDs running in RAID?

sabin yeah I know, I mean the ratings are all for nothing but the drive lets my system down. Whats the point on upgrading JUST the hard drive if its just 5.8 and the rest are in the sevens.

Maybe speed and size effect the rating..

Personally I don't think the HDD should count towards your overall system rating, especially not when WinSAT only counts the "OS Drive"
Uber-low performing HDDs are incredibly rare these days, so that will almost always be the LEAST of most users worries when building a comp. Most important, IMO, would be; CPU, RAM, GPU. We should get an aggregate based on THOSE components.

We already discussed the WinSAT score for HDDs... The higher scores are reserved (or rather "given" ) for RAID configurations, SSD, etc.
Remember, Windows 7 is also for power workstations, not just for us poor gamers.

I noticed that the HDD is the weakest component in my PC: I still haven't managed to run into RAM issues with my 3GB and my PC stays responsive even when a x264 encode uses 97% in the CPU but as soon as I run a HDD-intense task (muxing of large fles, extracting of large archives) everything gets unresponsive and 1080p video playback gets choppy.

MEGA NOOB question coming up!
I'm building a new (well, upgrading almost all my parts) tomorrow, and installing windows 7 on it; do I get the x86 or x64 version? I'll have a Intel i7 920 2.66GhZ and 6 Gb ram.
Thanks.

If you'll use it for surfing/business you shouldn't have any problems...

Really liking it so far, especially the new taskbar. Simple, but it works really well.

ok i've got a questionnn!
I was lookin forward to upgrade my HP Scanner (a Scanjet 2200c) to a newer HP scanner with working drivers for Vista/7 ON 64 BITS.
I've found one that looks like the one i own,its a HP Scanjet G2410 , and it says on the specs that it has Vista 64bit (that on the spanish HP site,english one has no details..fuckers ¬¬)
The spanish link is http://h10010.www1.hp.com/wwpc/es/es/sm/WF06a/15179-15179-64195-3445111-3445111-3423840.html
Think this scanner,besides of "supposedly" to work on Vista 64bit,work also on Windows 7 64bit?
btw,its pretty cheap,70€...(on our shops)
EDIT: Wich scanners from HP works on W7?...anyone tested their HP scanner (put model if so) on W7 64bit and say it worked,even with compatibility mode?
ASUS X570 TUF GAMING PLUS, 32GB DDR4@2666 ,RYZEN 5800X3D (NO OC),GIGABYTE RTX 4070 Super GAMING OC, Western Digital Blue 4TB 5400RPM + SAMSUNG 860 EVO 500+1TB GB SSDs , OEM SATA DVD 22xNoctua NH-D15 Chromax Black, BenQ XL2420T Case: Be Quiet! DARK BASE PRO 901. PSU CORSAIR RM1200 SHIFT

If it's supposed to work on Vista 64, then It should most certainly work on Win7 64...
