Windows 7 - anyone else think its crap?
When it works it's GREAT, but its so full of bugs I can't stand it. Programs taking 30+ seconds to open, crashes, slows down for no reason and is slowing me down.
Anyone else have a bad experience with it? |

Crashes often, blue screens just like XP and Vista.

My machine is mostly for video, but even the simple tasks slow it down sometimes. However, when it does run right, it hauls serious ass when rendering. |

I have not had one program crash since installing it.. I haven't even rebooted it once.
Running Ultimate here on a core2duo and it doesn't take long to do anything. |

The only people who have problems with it should be wearing helmets when leaving the house and have their mittens sewn to their sleeves.

Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bit
i7 860 @ 2.80 GHz 8 GM Ram I have a ASUS motherboard and 2 ASUS graphics cards set up for Crossfire. Like I said, when it works, it is amazing, but the amount of stalls, hangs, and slow performance is wearing me down. I know it shouldn't run like this but I lack the tech know how to fix it. I've also made a lot of tweaks I've read about on the Windows 7 forum to speed it up and make it perform better. Nothing helped. Cursed at birth. ![]() |

no problems here, if your machine is getting the dreaded blue screen then you have a problem - regular bios updates, turning off unused services and general spring cleaning every month or two should keep you in shape - slow launching software is due to software or hardware conflicts 9 times out of 10 - use task manager to disable things and see if it improves.

I've been using it for a few months on a new machine I put together for video editing and it works great. I like it at least as much as XP. Haven't used Vista ... knew I wanted stay as far away from it as possible.

I've been running it for a month now and it has never crashed once. Once I got past some of the security things, it's great.

I agree. Sounds like a hardware issue. The last machine I built had some weird crashes happening. I had to go in to the BIOS and adjust memory timings and voltages and it hasn't crashed once since.

Definitely sounds like hardware issues. I've been running Ultimate and have had no problems at all. Which specific ASUS board and video card?

I got a new desktop and laptop about a month ago. Went from older WinXP machines to new Win7 64bit pro with i7 920 processors.. 9gb of ram in the desktop, 6 in the laptop. No problem at all with the desktop..runs great and so much faster. The laptop has had some problems here and there with totally locking up, but I think it's something my older son had done with it (dang warcraft, etc)..cleaned up alot of unnecessary stuff and I've only had it hang once, but I was trying to mess with network settings at the same time I was trying to remote access the desktop. Other lock ups were very random prior to that and not from one set thing.
No blue screens at all... no slow loading programs, etc.

Did you do an upgrade?
Honestly, I only buy an operating system with a new computer. I've never had an upgrade work that well. You are better just starting from scratch.

Control panel>System>Advanced System Settings>Perfomance (settings tab)>Advanced tab>tick Background services. If your machine is loading .EXE's at 30+ seconds, this may help.

I have 5 (+1 laptop) Win 7 machines, rendering thousands of animation frames and being abused on a regular basis by a variety of software, including After Effects, Softimage and Vegas video, plus a few games. I've been running some new CUDA vid card renderers also and I rarely have a problem --- and if I do, I'd be more likely to blame it on the individual softwares.
It's been a terrific product so far.

No issues here. I don't do much more than develop applications with Visual Studio and SQL Server and browse the web but it works flawlessly. I haven't had a BSOD with it ever. It's rare for an application to crash but if it does it's FF and the same thing happens on XP Pro, so *shrug*

So far no big problems with win7 (64bit, 4gig ram), but I've mentioned some slowdowns while running 3D applications. Guess it's caused by the HDD (Notebook).
Anyone made some experiences with the free Microsoft Essentials AntiVir software?

I am assuming you're doing some editing and such on this PC, it isn't just your BS surf porn and read emails machine. Check your graphics related programs, almost guaranteed its one of them causing the problem sitting in memory.
