Windows 7 beta test
This article will discuss Windows 7 beta I have only
used it for about 10 days. Comparing it to a fresh install of
Started by putting windows 7 beta download into Google search engine, found the Microsoft download website then went through the necessary steps when you are ready to download be sure and specify the language its an important step, did this with out doing this once, had to do it all over again. Your system requirements are 1 gb of ram and a 1 gb processor DVD and internet connection. Down loaded then created a DVD with Nero 8.
Installed this on system with no operating system on it, you can also install it on a system with operating system previously installed. The installation went without any problems, it took about 50 minutes.
First thing I noticed after the initial turn on was the speed it was fast but this was with out any bloat ware, which I am sure you will get when you buy a new computer when it comes out of beta. That’s what Microsoft said it starts up a shuts down faster which is a feature I like.
Second thing noticed was the gadgets no longer are pinned to windows sidebar on the right side. Instead you can place them wherever you want on your desktop there are many 3rd party gadgets to chose from.
When you right click on the start menu there are only two choices taskbar properties and open windows explorer.
When you right click on the desktop screen resolution and gadgets have been included.
Things I did not like about when you drag windows by title bar they have a tendency to maximize. Plus they try to get you to use pay for Anti virus software when you use it for the first time. I installed Norton 360 which I found to subtract from the computers performance. I personally do not like bloat ware “ that’s software that tries to do to many things lowering the speed of the system.
Had a problem with Microsoft Expression web other then that had no problems with programs or hardware but it is beta software, these bugs will probably be fixed before the software ships.
In conclusion this version of Windows is the best Beta version I have ever tested I have also tested XP and Vista beta other then the problem with Expression web I could use this software Microsoft says this software is good till August 2009 and there only giving out 2.5 million copies so get your copy today.
