ToonTastic Posted June 4, 2009 Share Posted June 4, 2009 Not sure how well some of your games would cope on Windows 7 either. Rules out any other OS's as well playing games so I'd stick with XP if I was you. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Willow Posted June 5, 2009 Share Posted June 5, 2009 Not sure how well some of your games would cope on Windows 7 either. Rules out any other OS's as well playing games so I'd stick with XP if I was you. I'm using 7 RC (release candidate) now and my games run the same, if not better now. 7 RC runs out in June 2010 but will be nagging you from March. However, 7 is officially out on the 23rd of October 2009 so you won't be running the RC anyway. Just install it, backup important stuff and you'll love it, I can't recommend it highly enough.

Willow Posted June 5, 2009 Share Posted June 5, 2009 Its about 2.3 gigs, use a hotmail un and pw, then you'll get a serial key. Plus it has its own download manager that you can pause anytime. Took 2-3 hours to download on my horrible 2mb connection but it was worth it Let us know what you think g-i-m-p Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
