I want to make a new clean install of Win 7 Ulti. I have an Iso a DVD: 7 Ulti 64, x-17-59465, this dates from 1. July 2019 Is that the "best" one to use, or there better later ones? Activate with DAZ add ESU 12, or is it not that simple anymore? Thanks
Don't use Ultimate, there is no point doing that. Use W7 enterprise, at least you can activate it with a KMS emulator, which works w/o any hassle even on UEFI machines or using native VHDs, while still allowing Ultimate things like the Windows Media Center.
Thank you for your answer... I always used DAZ, which is as easy as seems possible when it comes to activation... and I never used Media Center. Basically, Win7 is the only thing I ever liked about MS. But it is always good toat least listen to other's opinions. Thank you
It's easy until it's hard. Daz loader (AFAIK) doesn't work at all on UEFI installations. Then where's the point of using the Ultimate SKU? Just use a normal Pro Matter of rosy glasses. Win8/Win8.1 are surely way better OSes, provided you spend 5 seconds to install Classic Shell.
I have an old computer, only SSD, i7 and Ram have been upgraded. Must have installed that ISO at least 10 times (I enjoy getting rid off old "stuff".) Ulti is simply on my disk, that is why I use it.If you know an updated ISO of Enterprise... I will be happy to try it I am more worried about ESU, but I deal with is, when I get there.... And as far as 8 goes, I think you are minority of one...
Bahh... fresh installs are for loosers. For people unable to maintain a working and clean installation. For people unable to fix simple problems that may pop up from time to time. So why you asked for suggestions? Just do what you did 10 times and worked for you. No I never download updated ISOs, nor waste my time updating mine. If a driver needed to boot is missing/required just I use dism /add-driver or winntsetup.exe during the deploy phase. Then WU wil take care of the updates. My PC must work for me, not viceversa. Obviously I am, Lions are always a fraction of sheep.
I assume correctly you have no idea of what humor, irony, sarcasm are? I think googling about them could be a good start to discovery those marvels...
