bluemoonexpat Posted November 28, 2013 Share Posted November 28, 2013 Don't bother. I have just had this installed on my PC at work and it now takes me 2-3 times longer to operate. It does not help when a user guide is not provided by the company. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A1Str8 Posted November 28, 2013 Share Posted November 28, 2013 Gates himself would advice you to get a copy instead of an original one as it sucks so hard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jiu-Jitsu Posted November 28, 2013 Share Posted November 28, 2013 Gates himself would advice you to get a copy instead of an original one as it sucks so hard. What kind of nonsense are you posting? Why would you imagine that a genuine and untampered disc performs worse than a hacked copy?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jiu-Jitsu Posted November 28, 2013 Share Posted November 28, 2013 I think I saw somewhere that from Feb next year, MS are no longer going to service Windows 7 with patches and updates. So to keep using it, you will place yourself in a vulnerable position if you do banking etc.Simply not true. Support for Windows 7 RTM without service packs ended on April 9, 2013 Windows 7 Service Pack 1: End of mainstream support ends January 13, 2015 End of extended support ends January 14, 2020 Extended Support phase provides for: Paid support (per-incident, per hour, and others) Security update support Non-security hotfix support (Requires extended hotfix agreement, purchased within 90 days of mainstream support ending.) Product-specific information that is available by using the online Microsoft Knowledge Base Product-specific information that is available by using the Support site at Microsoft Help and Support to find answers to technical questions Note: A hotfix is a modification to the commercially available Microsoft product software code to address specific critical problems. ref: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/products/lifecycle#section_1 Yeah, and Windows 8 is only 3 years ahead of that. I'll wait for Windows 9 and skip Windows 8. Life is too short to be messing around with new operating systems when the old ones work fine. Windows 8 doesn't really benefit home PC or laptop users anyway. I skipped Vista, and that was lucky. I'll let the impatient new customers solve the teething problems of new operating systems. I don't work for Microsoft. In the meanwhile, you an get very good Windows 7 (Ultimate) operating systems "online". On my Sony laptop my original registered basic Windows 7 was terrible and now I do much better with a fully featured free "online" version.. The paid-for version was nothing but trouble. What a strange post. You don't need to use a hacked copy if you have a legitimate licence with Sony. Just a clean install of a genuine disc without all of the SONY bundled crap would have had the desired effect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just a clean install of a genuine disc without all of the SONY bundled crap would have had the desired effect. I prefer my hacked 7 Ultimate over my genuine basic. Wonders will never cease. I had reinstalled the genuine basic version once already without all the Sony bundled crap.... and then recently I had to do it all over again... Because my basic factory OE version is a 2010 version, after I've install it I have to wait forever while hundreds of updates download and install, which annoys the crap out of me ... compared to my up-to-the minute hacked 7 ultimate version which of course is nearly up-to-date. Then there's the advantage that I don't have to delete dozens of Sony bundled crap... rather than selectively install some of them which are required to run my machine.
