Ya know when your pc doesn't shut down correctly, and when you boot it back up it gives a bunch of options like " Safe Mode,Safe Mode with networking, Last known good configuration, etc"?????? Well what i ended up doing was click the option on that screen that says "Start windows normally". Then it started to load from the disc. Then i got to another screen and click advance option there, and it showed me the all the drives that were recognized. Then it gave me the option to format, Delete, NEW, to a partition. In any case, I am at 90% on the expanding file on the list of things to do to install it.... I like whatever interface i have seen so far... But not everything that gliders is gold! :lol: will post if I have any issues.... FYI i am running this on my XP Desktop machine.... I built if 4-5 yrs ago, but its a badd MOTHER! 3.2ghz Pentium 4 processor with HT (hyper threading). 2 gigs of RAM and with all drives i have a terabyte if not more of space....
update.... I was having trouble installing the famous spy sweeper.... it kinda wanted to load and it just spinned its way to no where...... So i am not to sure what to run..NOD32 is ok, but would like something with a little more monitoring.,.... i am up for suggestions ... thanks..
EDIT: I just decided to click on recommended virus protection within the Action screen for shnits and gigglez.... it brought me to of course symantec as a suggestion...so click on the link and what do you know, a beta version of Norton 360 for windows 7..... install it now.... if anyone else cares to share on what they are using as a compatible virus protection,... i am listening...
well i finally got mine partitioned with dual boot vista/windows 7 i had to get a bootloader program called BOOTIT: next generation which worked flawlessly without data loss i partitoned 200 gb for windows 7. i have kaspersky on it atm which is the realtime protection your wanting, it installed perfectly and yes it works perfect aswell. and im actually doing a ton of experimenting with this one. my only issue so far is i can't install macdrive 7 >_< so i have to find some way of being able to read mac format :cry:
i am a bit upset that there isn't a unzipping program built into it :( right now with some minor tweak i am running with at 11,000 kb with explorere.exe with 20 second bootup.
i am also working on transfering my vista files aka master collection and what not onto windows 7.
and jew if you have any dignity do not install symmantec >_<
btw i love stickynotes i filled my screen with them just for fun, oh and the snapshot app is leet.
