    so i have downloaded windows 7 and im planning on over writing my vista
    the only thing i am worried about is will my vista only applications work with windows 7 or will they be incompatable (the ony one i have to is halo 2 vista so it not that big of a loss)

    that is not a finalized version of windows 7, if have a spare drive then install 7 on to that drive so can see what issues come up.

    ya i know its not the final version its the pre-beta

    I actualy have tested it now every thing but these work

    xbox 360 controller driver
    macdrive 7
    and GTA IV pc refuses to install


    Fallout 3 works but freezes in the beginning starting a new game

    one other thing why when using windows do you always have to worry about compatibility between new operating systems
