I've been running this since the beta version; Drivers for this bitch are lame as ; they are dependent upon windows xp or some ; I doubt windows 7 is even going to be worth the money;
Just download ubuntu or a linux flavor distro; like Debian . . .forget anything in this world that costs a monetary value to purchase.
The only reason I got windows 7 is because it is was a download that one did not have to pay for.
Past that screw windows if you have to pay any penny for utilizing something that should be free at this point in our highly advanced society. |
Drivers for Win7 have nothing to do with XP except for the fact that they are both technically NT based. Aside from that, the sound and video drivers are TOTALLY different than XP. You can't use XP sound or video drivers with Win7. Same went for Vista.
As for finding drivers, most if not all things made in the last 2-3 years will work perfectly.
Anyways, please get back to topic. Do you have 32 or 64bit? If 32bit, can you please do as I asked? If not cool. |

| Mine is 64bit, so I'm afraid I'm useless to you. |

| Yeah I know. You and Chris both. My coworker ironically just finished installing 32bit, so he is going to test for me as soon as he gets that online. Which should be very soon. |

Yeah windows. :rolleyes: I have used Linux extensively, and quite frankly, it has some serious issues. Quite specifically, Ubuntu doesn't deal with SATA well or properly. Flash is a piece of on it. There are still rendering issues with some displays. Not ready for the mainstream yet. |

So download the app I linked in my post, change the language to Russian and tell me if it looks ed.
If the letters don't look anything like this: йцукенгшщзхъывапролджэячсмитьбю. |

exactly.
there are like a bajillion possible problems in the world of computing, and i want the problems that everyone else has too, which we're more likely to see fixes/workarounds for.
if you want the least hassles, go mainstream. the same goes for hardware too. |

Hey, I can actually read that:
Mikemu?SKomiomisumiumuikakimu?Kishiimi-misomumisemisamiemikamusaijo??shimikumibikoamu.
I kind of wish it meant something, but I'm afraid sigma is not exactly a common letter in Japanese :( |

Yes. It now reads "(Short-)i???kengshschz???yvap?oldzheya????it'b?.", but in Cyrillic. I tried all other encodings KOI-8, ISO-8859, Windows-1251, but nothing works... what is it supposed to say?
I'm running Google Chrome on Vista (32bit, I guess), by the way. |
