I installed this just today. Is it me or are newer versions of Windows looking more and more like Linux??

Here is an example, folder is empty, but no go for delete. Even 'taking ownership' makes no difference??

I keep getting BSoD'd fairly often, haven't found out what caused it yet.

And indeed, no 5.1 surround sadly :chriso:

SoundBlaster X-Fi Titanium

But I haven't tried my own advice, namely the KX-driver, yet.

Although KX isn't fully surround, it fakes it somehow with frequency and channel splitting (KX has it's flaws)

I have the official Creative driver installed.


But actually, my main problem is the BSoD'ing of the installation!


p.s.
If you don't have any signal on DVI, shutdown and disconnect your monitor from power (completely that is!), leave it like that for half an hour or more, then reconnect it and power-up.
If that doesn't work, skip the reboot at first, but reboot after power dis/re connect. Solved the problem for me. (requires official VGA-drivers)

Thinkin about installing the Beta over top of the old build of it I have.

Should I unplug my RAID arrays (w/my other OS's on 'em) when I install or just let the Windows 7 boot manager take over?

Gratzie.

:roadrunner: don't touch that raid array :drunk:

the manager is fine, and you can use vista boot pro to bump it later if you don't like it.
