I am just about done copying my data. When that is done I will update to SP1. I do hope this will make Win7 run faster, my AMD 965 now runs like my AMD 2500+ did on XP. screwy I've never seen some many "Not Responding" errors in such a short time. Not since I dumped XP.

And does the Nvidia control panel show up in Windows 7? When I had it in Vista I right clicked on the desktop to find it. I don't see it here.

Works when I right click on desktop.

You did install your chipset drivers before any other drivers?

Still haven't gotten around to updating them. The device manager says:

8.15.11.8593

From:

5/14/2009

I downloaded the latest 64bit drivers. Can I just install them over my previous ones?

Yeah, no need to uninstall.
Like a new suit isn't it? I preferred Vista, but gotta move on.

If that means a new suit with holes in it as well as being on fire, then yes. So far using Win 7 has been a huge pain in the ass compared to Vista...

If you are running Intel, go to Intel and run the browser based driver utility and it will tell you if you have to upgrade. Mine are the latest. They came out in April 2011.
