Wow man. Cant say I had to deal with that one! Ive installed 32 bit twice, on two separate machines, 64bit on my current BADBOY, LOL. My badboy is a joke to alot of people I imagine. But... alot of people are impressed by its Smooth operation. So...the only way to remove 7, is to "KILLDISK"??? To those who dont know what kill disk is, its a utility that wipes data regardless of what it is. ESSENTIAL for nasty viruses, or just want a VERY clean install! Really havnt had too many prob's. though im not really a power user exactly. Im probably gonna take a look at at several linux builds as well. Debian, suse, ubuntu, etc. I think, correct me if im wrong, that Debian has the most eye candy to date. PLEASE CORRECT ME IF IM WRONG! Ok Ok, yes...im addicted to eye candy, LOL

Had only installed 7 Beta on a laptop, well had installed it twice. In between and after the second install i had no problem at all in reusing the hard drive for both XP and Linux..
..if in doubt just use a Linux partitioning disk such as System Rescue CD etc etc (though i didn't have to), that'll wipe any trace of 7 Beta

Removed the 7 Beta from the kid's machine, reinstalled XP again and it is working fine, just formatted the hard drive using the XP Install disk. I'm shelving this on the same shelf as Vista.

My problems all had to do with the boot sector. Even using the Boot Manager, it wouldn't boot from the XP disk, it just kept booting Win 7. I pulled the plugs on the Win 7 drive and installed XP on my other drive. Then after putting the first drive back in, XP would not see the Win 7 drive, nor would it boot from it. My big mistake was trying to be clever and use the Boot Manager (F12) as I had done before with 98 & XP. It even set it up as Dual Boot (which was a surprise), with it's own boot manager coming up on screen. After that it wouldn't boot Win 7 at all, but it would boot to the "Other operating system"!
When I would try to boot the Win 7 drive from the XP disk, I got a message saying that it couldn't boot to this drive. I tried several different Acronis disks and WD Data Lifeguard. I finally disconnected the second drive and got it to boot with Killdisk 2 by selecting CD-Rom in the boot manager, and wiped the disk clean. The real surprise was that even when I would select "Other operating system", and booted from XP, it would give me an Access Denied message when I tried to format the Win 7 drive from XP!
I do have to say that I used Win 7 for about half a day and I liked it, other than some software incompatibility issues. It would play DVDs with the Windows 7 Media Player, but it wouldn't work with Power DVD 7! Micro$oft still has a lot of work to do if they expect me to buy Win 7! My attitude is that software that I've had for years and like that worked with 98, 2000 and XP, should also work with Vista and Win 7. If it doesn't, I won't be be switching to Win 7!

Oman7,
It's funny, but every person I let play around with the x2 4400+ I built, really liked it. To a man, they all commented on it's smoothness! By the numbers, the Intel's are faster, but the numbers are deceiving! I find that the time it takes to do anything is no where near as slow as the numbers would indicate it should be. I'm champing at the bit to get my new Kuma build going. I am so looking forward to it!

XP runs VERY smooth on my 2001 HP 1.4ghz amd. Though I wiped its drive and put windows 7 on it for the heck of it. The only thing really bottlenecking it IMO, is its HDD! Graphics are good, no real cpu bottleneck. NEEDS MORE RAM. Once again, im running into not getting a straight answer on how much ram it'll support. Multiple sites say 1gb, where others say 2. And I swear once upon a time, somewhere in my bios, or a bootable mem diag disc stated that my limit was 2gb. I think im gonna believe my board over what sites state. Whats really interesting is when I search BY board, more often than not, its 2gb. But when I search by Pavilion 7905, its 1gb. So HP is underestimating it for some reason. Could be an interesting experiment. pc2100 isnt too expensive, I think i'll try it some time.

Trust me on this one, I had a 7905 that I picked up to sell and the manual says 2GB!

Russ, Your awesome. Once again, you stear me in the right direction. EXCELLENT. I was really leaning that way. :D
Perhaps I can find a mobile edition of my cpu(or better) and see how it handles a little bump. I know its WAY behind the times, but I love playing with stuff. Besides, it'll make an excellent mediacenter (minus bluray playback), as well as some emulators. It ran N64 roms rather nicely. It seems like it didnt like PSX though. Although that could have been a Direct x issue for all I know.

Oman7,
I don't see any problem getting around 3GHz out of the 5200+ with decent air cooling and good case ventilation. Water cooling should yield somewhere around 3.2GHz Turn up the wick on it a little bit! Don't let nuthin but fear hold you back. Just keep an eye on the temps and keep the CPU voltage under 1.45v!

LOL, yah... I dont see temperature becoming an issue. It averages under 30c as of late, idle. 36-38 rebuilder load. Unfortunately its a locked cpu. The only way to get around it would be with a software override. hmmm...amd overdrive???

Well...AMD overdrive is COMPLETELY incompatible with Windows 7!!! It tells you while unpacking that it REQUIRES vista or Xp! So I tried running it in compatibility mode, TO NO AVAIL. Only one option remains, FORCE install. Last time I did that, I locked up one of the cores. And being this is a CPU utility, im thinking im looking for a windows 7 compatible O.C. utility.

well...it looks like my windows 7 testing is coming to a screeching halt. I just discovered the mother of all bugs. Now correct me if im being stupid please. Because I am somewhat newb.
Ive been downloading utilities to run on both windows 7 and my XP machine. My xp(HP) machine has no internet access. I simply transfer files via usb flash drive. Now...my main tower has 2 OS drives. An XP drive and a Windows 7 drive. When I transfer installation packages via windows 7, they are corrupted on my Xp(HP) machine. Now when I boot up my XP hard drive in my main tower(MSI), TO MAKE SURE MY HEADER isnt fried, and transfer via XP to flash drive...its fine when I transfer it to my XP (HP) machine. simply put...Windows 7 has now began corrupting installation packages that get transfered to/through usb. Any thoughts before I pull the plug guys/gals. Ive never seen anything quite like this. But it does indeed seem to be isolated to the windows 7 drive!

Hot off the press - No More Windows 7 BetasOriginally posted by Paul Thurrott @ windowsitpro.com:
Microsoft: No More Windows 7 Betas
On Friday, Microsoft confirmed a report that first appeared in WinInfo last year: The company will issue no more beta releases of Windows 7 and will instead move directly to a single release candidate (RC) followed by the final release. The company offered no guidance on when we can expect the Windows 7 release, however.
"The next milestone for the development of Windows 7 is the Release Candidate or 'RC,'" Microsoft Senior Vice President Steven Sinofsky confirmed in a blog post. "We've released the feature-complete beta and have made it available broadly around the world. The path to RC is all about getting the product to a known and shippable state both from an internal and external standpoint."
Sinofsky notes that the RC version of Windows 7 will be "Windows 7 as Microsoft intends to ship it" and will place the OS on a fast track toward release to manufacturing (RTM), when the code is literally completed, and general availability (GA), when it is made available to the public. Sinofsky didn't provide a timeline for the RC, RTM, or GA. "The answer [to the schedule questions] is forthcoming," he said.
"We are taking a quality-based approach to completing the product and won't be driven by imposed deadlines," Sinofsky claimed. "We're promising to deliver the best release of Windows we possibly can, and that's our goal. Together, and with a little bit more patience, we'll achieve that goal."
While Microsoft's adherence to a "ship when it's ready" schedule is laudable, it's pretty clear that Windows 7 will, in fact, be delivered well before the 2009 holiday and back-to-school seasons, which are key sales-bump periods in the consumer market. Insiders I've spoken to say we can expect to see the RC version of Windows 7 in April alongside Windows Vista SP2, and the RTM release by mid-year.

I wonder if there's some type of drive encryption built into the Windows 7 installation. I'll have to look at mine, but I've been transferring from XP to 7 via network with no problem, but can't remember if I went the other way or not.

Appreciate the feedback buddy. :) Sounds logical. I wonder if there is some setting that will prevent it, or if ive got a different problem entirely! I guess im gonna have to reinstall and try the fresh copy and see what that does.

You know... I just reinstalled windows 7, and the issue is still there. So... im leaning toward the fact that I dont have my mainboard drivers installed. And since my board was not released with vista support, im gonna have to try and find them. Any thoughts on that. Would not having them, cause the usb transfer process to malfunction?
By the way, LARGE picture files seem undamaged, Though I imagine that installation packages are a bit more complex.
Actually now, Im thinking that SProdigy may be correct

You know, after an exhaustive search for drivers for your motherboard, I actually found them. MSI's system is the pits! I did actually manage to find them though. If you can't find your drivers, here they are!

Man...You just went above and beyond! THANK YOU. I would have looked exactly there first, but you just saved me some time. Yes... I dont like there page configuration either. Infact they have multiple websites under other alias's. Kinda sucks! Cant wait to try the Gigabyte board! Gettin impatient.
In order to save money quicker, I slapped a patch on my shoulder, and quit buying booze for a few weeks. I know I know, easier said than done, right? Im anxious, believe it! If I succeed, I may just owe my new found health to you :D
Mmmm, i'll post soon, regarding drivers helping or not.

Ok. Apparently its something else windows 7 related. Because the system drivers had virtually no effect! Im at a loss here. I think this security stuff is total BS! That is what it amounts to right? Some kinda security setting?
This is the exact error that My other computer (XP) gives me.
The Contents of this file cannot be unpacked. The executable you are attempting to run has been corrupted. Please obtain another copy of the file, verify its integrity, and try again.
Please note, that this is NOT some illegal software. Its simply nvidia downloaded utilities I was attempting to play with. Yes, I can download them via the mentioned machine, but I wanna know what the heck is going on here!

Just for the hell of it try running Memtest 86! Just don't download it on that machine. You will need either a floppy or a usb memory stick to boot from. You will have to select it from the boot manager so it boots from the floppy or memory stick! Check 1 stick at a time! Just playing a hunch here! I just went through a similar thing where files I didn't even access were getting corrupted, and it turned out to be my CPU!

ahhh... but like I said. When Im running xp on the same machine, and transfer the files to my other XP machine they're fine. Logic suggests, LOL, that windows 7 MUST be the culprit. Or simply a setting within windows 7
I already have that(windows mem diag) on a bootable mini-cd by the way. Havnt ran it in a while but, when I first got the ram I checked it, it was good.

Try dumping the files in a shared folder on the other machine and copying them over via ethernet, ie to see if the usb stick is the culprit..

I have several usb flash drives, several usb ports, etc. The flash drives appear to NOT be the culprit since when xp is running transfers work perfectly. Out of everything I try, Xp works, windows 7 does not. There must be some kinda setting. Ive had very little trouble with this OS. And this would be a VERY SERIOUS BUG if not a setting.
To delete, or not to delete. THAT is the question! |
