    I disagree with you, I can play games like "Modern Warfare/Modern Warfare 2"

    I'm using 7 as the main OS and since 7989 is x64 I'm now returning to x64 only status:D
    And yeah prolly using 7989 more than 7,no errors or crashes so far:cold:

    Yep,

    7989 as main OS, faster than 7955... seems more stable....

    No compatibility issues at all (i'm not a gamer...):D:D

    Is it rejecting the game itself or the method of copy protection the game utilizes? I know 7959 did NOT like securom games.

    This is my main OS also, it's more stable and better video than 7955.

    Yip I am using 7989 for my main OS. I havnt had this buzz since I was testing Windows 7. My firefox seems to crash quite often though.

    BTW is there anyway to remove the watermark yet?

    Using 7989 here. It generally is working well but among the apps I used to have in 7, I miss Windows Live Writer. Can't get it to work.

    Using it as my main OS, but I got an image of my win 7 install on the server for when I get bored of it.
