I know you were banned, but did you at least read the last page or two of posts?

Um... What?

Aaaanyway, I had Win7 BSoD yesterday. I was trying to uninstall something while installing AVG. Apparently the control panel uninstallation thing isn't totally safe yet. Haven't started it back up yet, haven't had time.

Hey, thanks :grin:

I have one thing to say. ME was the absolute worst piece of "release" software I've ever used. It is and was a lot worse than most of the beta ware I come across. The only reason I kept a copy was to play some old games that XP broke, but then I downgraded it to 98 when I got sick of the BSoD's every five seconds.

So far, Win7 is to Vista as XP was to ME. Except replacing annoying popups and driver compatibility instead of BSoD's.

So.... How does CC run on it?

I got the System burned to a disk, but I don't
feel like breaking my operating system and repairing
it (with a 3rd party partitioning program) and restoring
all my program files and the whole bit just to create a new
partition. (And the one that comes with Vista says that I
have only like 8 gigs of shrink space before it runs into an
unmvovable file.)

I can wait 'till I have access to one of my newer computers.

Exactly what I wanted to know, but would it work if I installed onto my D Drive and kept Vista 64x on my almighty C Drive? :-(

You can only boot off of your physical C drive, so if D is a partition of your physical C drive then yes. If not, then no. You'll have to resize the C partition to give another partition of about 16Gig (MS's recommended size for the partition, I found you could probably get away with 12Gig).

Thanks for the reply, do you think I will NEED a CD to burn Windows 7 too?

Is it possible to use Windows 7 without having to burn it to a CD then install it?

if you have Vista you can use the partition editor to resize your system one, make a new 20GB one, then use daemon tools to mount the ISO and install from within windows
