  3. Update Vista64 with Windows7 RC1

    I just updated my Vista64 PC running Ensemble3 with Windows7 RC1 and after doing some test I can say it seems to work really well, the system feels much more responsible than with vista. With vista I always had trouble with the network connection, windows7 solved it for me. The update procedure was smooth, I only had to update the eLicencer software. Everything else worked instantly. I read that from now on microsoft recommends anyone to switching to Windows7 RC1 instead of vista. 

    Of course I duplicated the vista partition before the update so I could go back in case of trouble.

     i can only full heartedly agree - the network (searching) has been improved, though copying little files could be better (still much slower than with XP)

    from another source i received an important information about an issue i didn't run into so far:

    @Another User said:

    Just in case you are going to run the Win7 RC with a firewire interface make sure you "update" the Firewire driver to "legacy driver" (it is also included. Else allmost all Firewire interfaces fail to work due to a new FW stack.

    and remember: only a CRAY can run an endless loop in just three seconds.
