I am hoping that eventually there will a Windows7 subject, I am sure that it will be extremely popular.
I have been running Windws7 beta for about 3 days and I think that it will be great improvement over Vista.
So far I found two bugs, my speakers don't work (they do in Vista on the same PC) and the time and date settings are incorrect. I am sure MS will fix these real quick.
If someone have any suggestions as to how I might make the speakers work, I'd be very thankful.

And since we do have that Windows 7 forum, I've moved your thread there.
I used Vista drivers for my new computer that's running Windows 7 RC also.

Where is the Windows7 forum? Please send me a link.
Creative SB-XFi is my audio card. I am not sure it has a Windows7 driver, I could not find one. Vista driver will not work.
Thanks.

Or from that home page, click Discussion Forums at the top of your list.
Scroll down to Windows Operating Systems, and the first one listed is Windows 7.
Lots of ways to get here.

Glad to report, that Windows 7 is working flawlessly. Found the Windows 7 beta driver for my Creative sound card and it is, again, working just fine. My ATI TV card stopped working in Vista, but works perfectly in Windows 7, it is a mystery.

This was the difference I found when installing windows 7 as opposed to when I installed Vista. More beta drivers for windows 7 than there were for Vista. I found Vista drivers worked for me on most everything, then found a windows 7 driver for my video card. Though it is a beta release, it still works fine.
Glad to hear you have things working now. Thanks for posting back.
