AMD X2 Not Reporting Or Working Properly
Ok, this is going to seem odd. Installed 7.7000 32 and have had no problems, until last night when I realized something was amiss. In the task manager, (and performance monitor) the system is only reporting one core. I installed amd's cpuinfo and it too says that there is only one processor (0) on the system.
To make matters more confusing, the Device Manager says there are indeed two instances of the AMD X2 5000+ Processors installed and working properly. I tried to do a quick "upgrade drivers online" but it just reported that everything was fine. AMD's website doesnt seem to have any drivers (other than for XP/2003 x64).
I thought 7 was supposed to handle mutlicore better, but am i missing something?

Problem Reporting Has Stopped Working
I recently installed Windows 7 Beta X64 over Windows Vista X64. After installation I immediatley started getting a continuous error "Windows Problem Reporting has stopped working Windows is checking for a solution to the problem ..." I've been looking through the Forum but have not yet come across this problem. Looking for any hints to resolve.

All Programs Not Working Properly
I am having problems with all the programs I have tried thus far. Both Firefox and IE crash after a couple of minutes use, as does iTunes, Windows Media Player and I also tried Elder Scrolls: Oblivion as well. All 'stop working' and the computer returns to dektop. I am running Windows 7 RC x64.

CD/DVD Drive Not Working Properly
Windows 7 seems to freeze and crash when I input a CD or a DVD in my Dual-Layer CD/DVD RW-drive. I've checked the drivers, which windows update says is up to date, and tried with lots of different CDs and DVDs, just to check if the disc in question was broken. This is really problematic as I dont have a spare DVD drive anywhere. Anyone else had this problem? If so, how did you fix it/did you fix it?

Dvd Player Not Working Properly
I installed Windows 7 yesterday, and for some reason, my dvd player isn't working correctly. I checked the drivers, and it says they are up to date. Not that I can find any for download anywhere though. I have a Sony Optiarc DVD-RW AD-7203S, if that helps. This is what it says on the device manager, "Windows cannot verify the digital signature for the drivers required for this device. A recent hardware or software change might have installed a file that is signed incorrectly or damaged, or that might be malicious software from an unknown source. (Code 52)". I don't think this is the doing of a virus, since I've scanned my computer twice and not found anything. Is this something I can fix or do I need to install Vista again?

Brightness Tuning Not Working Properly On HP 6735s
Fresh install of Windows 7 64 bits on a HP 6735s computer with AMD X2 and ATI  Radeon HD 3200. No problem for installation. Tuning of the screen brightness is hazardous. It does not work much of time, every time I try to put the brightness to the maximum it returns to the low value. But after a while ( a few minutes, about 15 ...) it seems to work: brightness comes up to maximum ! Any idea ?

Start Search Programs And Files Not Working Properly
Its been happening ever since I installed Windows 7. For example, When I click Start, type "CC" in the search box, the Start menu displays what I intend to start (CCleaner) but when I press enter I get this: Its acting completely wierd! On top of that, when I right click the entry, I get a menu which is expanded towards the left awkwardly. I also recall that I have unchecked "Allow files on this drive to have contents indexed in addition to file properties." in the properties of my Windows 7 boot drive. And since the programs are installed there, I think the problem might be related. I have checked it again but it dosen't have any effect!

Dell USB Card Reader Not Working Properly
I have a Dell XPS Studio 435T that was running Vista Home Prem. 64 bit. My card readers were labeled G:, H:, I:, and J: and were there when I got the machine. C: and D: are the Dell Vista Home Prem. 64 bit OS and the Dell Restore partition, E: and F: are my DVD drives. These drives always appear. The system was built early May and was the A07 BIOS. When I needed to read an SD card, I plugged the card into the proper slot, nothing happened? Discovered the drive was NOT on Explorer nor COMPUTER desktop icon when double clicked. I have a Canon printer with card slots, put the card in the printer after I turned it on and I can read the card, so it isn't the card (unless the 435T's slot can't read 8GB SD cards). I don't get any errors when starting the system and nothing apparent in the Event Viewer. I called Dell figuring they'd be aware of this problem and have a suggestion. Wrong, they claim it isn't a common problem and is either a h/w problem or I 'did something' to the system that caused this. Suggested fix was to restore the system to the shipped state and I was not too happy about that. The Rep. then agreed to get on my system and look at it. I showed him the drives and the Device Manager that had an 'Unknown Device' and that it had no driver. I showed him that when I tried to update the drive it said I had the correct driver. I deleted that device and then had Device Manager search for changes and it found the same 'Unknown Device'. Now the Rep. thought I had a driver problem and proceeded to re-load the Intel Chipset drivers. I think I did replace those with more recent ones, but I let him. It installed INSTANTLY and the rep. said it meant I had the drivers installed... Checked the drives again, not there. Next step as for me to shut-off the system and restart into the BIOS screen and RESET the BIOS to the factory default. OK, but when the system booted, didn't do anything for the problem. Now the Rep. asked if I could open the case and check the cables to the reader bar. This was after he came back on-line after checking what to do next. By this time I decided I wanted to try something, I have a USB single card reader. I put the SD card into it and inserted it into the card readers USB connector. It found the device, although it didn't assign a drive? Put that same device into the USB connectors behind it and it had the same results but the Rep. was now convinced I had power to the card reader and wouldn't need to open the case. I then used a real USB Flash drive, put that in the card bar and it worked and could be read (and the Rep. wanted to connect and open the flash drive to be sure, which I allowed). So, the Rep. wants to REPLACE the h/w. From the reports I've seen, this is a waste of time. His response was he's never seen other reports of this failure and my only other choice is to restore Vista to the shipped state. So I OK'ed the h/w replacement. I know I've seen the drives as recently as 2 weeks ago. I was surprised one day when I opened Explorer and saw additional drives and then determined they were the card slots. As suddenly as they appeared, a few days later they were gone. Dell eventually replaced the device, cable from motherboard to it, and even the motherboard. In all cases, replacing that component had the card slots reappear on boot, only to disappear sometime later. This had been ongoing since July when I first discovered the problem. Only after I installed Win7 was the true problem discovered. I had a random BSOD under Vista with DVD Flick. Not often, but it happened. All I had to do was re-boot and it worked fine. Assumed it was a memory problem. After installing Win7 and booting after a BSOD from DVD Flick Win7 reported a USB device was not working properly and showed a list of USB devices. The suggestion, unplug and re-plug the device and if it didn't fix it, replace the device. Well, looking in Explorer, the card slots were gone. Unplugged the cable and put them back in (case had to be opened to do this) and booted, problem was gone. I've since removed DVD Flick and the problem has not come back. So, the question is why wasn't the USB port working properly? I assume an initialization problem, and I see a HOTFIX was just released for Nvidia systems with 4GB's of memory and USB devices stop working so I wonder if the USB drivers could be at fault here?

ATI Mobility Xpress 200M Drivers Not Working Properly
I have an Acer Aspire 3650 laptop with an ATI Mobility Xpress 200M integrated video card. When Windows 7 automatically update the video drivers and reboot the system, I don't get video signal. I can connect my laptop to a LCD screen and get video, but at a very high resolution (something about 1440x???) so I guess the drivers set my screen resolution too high to get any image on my screen. I tried changing the resoltion using that LCD screen but even setting it to 800x600 doesn't make my laptop screen to work. BTW, ATI beta drivers package doesn't seem to work... Any ideas?

Win7 Bug Reporting
I must say this is the best windows version yet to have been released! I have found only one bug that has been confirmed on 2 different machines, doing the same tasks and reporting the same problem. Do you think I can find a place to let MS know about it and if it can be / will be fixed anywhere? dont be silly - not anywhere I can find.

Reporting Win7 UX To Microsoft
I'm posting this using WinXP (my usual OS), and Windows 7 runs on the same hardware except it's a separate boot disk (ie, not a dual boot system). I know I can click a link on the Windows 7 desktop to report problems etc, but how can I do the same from a machine not running Windows 7? Is there a URL that can be made sticky on this forum, perhaps? In particular I want to direct them here - a solution (albeit trivial).

Error Reporting Questions
I've had a couple of BSOD's and have a few questions about WER.1. Does the BSOD report/minidump automatically get sent to Microsoft and by what method? I've had a couple errors w/o the BSOD and I was prompted to send them, but have not had the prompt after rebooting from the BSOD. 2. If it does not automatically get sent how do I send the report/minidump manually? There does not seem to be a way to do this. 3. I see some reports in the /windows/WER/ReportQueue folder. This includes the BSOD error and minidump that I encountered. How do these get reported and is it possible to view the WER file?

Error Reporting Feature
I recall reading some time ago about a new feature in Windows 7 for user generated error reporting that would allow a user to record their desktop / take periodic screenshots while they replicated an error, which would then allow them to forward / email the report to someone who could offer help. I can't seem to locate this feature in Windows 7 Ultimate, and i'm having trouble locating any articles talking about the feature. Was it removed or am i not looking hard enough?

Reporting Network Activity
So, 7 is reporting 4.5tb of network activity in 11 hours, with 600 gigs sent. I'm connected to my mac file server with roughly 1.8 TB of external hard drives (not NTFS either. mac formatted). It just keeps pumping out 5 megabytes a second and i have no idea where it's going. It doesn't show up in my resource manager, either, Any ideas?

Error Reporting: Firewall Outbound Rule
I have blocked outbound connections in the Windows firewall and allowed individual apps setting different rules. I don't seem to be able to create a rule to allow Windows Error Reporting through the firewall. I have tried to allow svchost.exe + windows error reporting under services but it doesn't work. I have also tried to allow different files in the c:WindowsSystem32 folder with no success... When I allow again outbound connections the Windows Error Reporting works again so I am sure I have to create a rule for that.

Sata Devices Reporting As SCSI, Performance Issues
Just installed Windows 7 RTM and my Sata HDD's and DVDRW are reporting as SCSI devices. I would get this problem in XP if I installed the mobo's raid drivers by accident. If I did then the devices would report as SCSI and the dvd burner would report as a cdrom and would not burn or read dvds Whereas in Windows 7 the burner is reporting as a DVDRW scsi CDrom and will play dvd's and burn them too. So at the moment there doesn't seem to be any problem however whilst navigating through the control panel I noticed the WEI. So I took a look and it's report my primary hard drive with a score of 5.9. The hard drive is a brand new Western Digital Caviar Black 500gb 32mb cache disk, is this score normal for such a drive? Also is there anything else to worry about with the devices reporting as SCSI or is okay to leave it like that.

Dual Monitor Mouse Restricted Reporting Problem
Installed Win7 RC today, on hardware which is fine on a dual monitor XP setup. For a time it seemed OK but then I couldn't move the mouse to the other monitor, and couldn't stop Control Panel being in that other monitor. Therefore cannot actually use Win 7 and have had to revert to XP. Even removing power to that wrong monjitor failed -- somewhere the previous screen coordinates of Control Panel had got stored, way outside the boundaries of my "good" monitor.

Not Recognizing SD Cards, And Reporting Incorrect Capacity On Format
When i plug an SD card into my USB card reader, Windows 7 says that it needs formatting, and refuses to read it. This has happened both with the SD card from a Nintendo DS (DSTT), as well as the one out of the Canon camera (both oldish 2gb, one micro SD, the other mini SD). If I start Virtual XP, and attach the USB card reader, XP can read the cards fine. I figured Win 7 must be using some new storage format, so i backed up both cards, and went to format them, but Win 7 is saying they only have a capacity of just under 1Gb each. Could it be my old multi-format USB card reader that's causing the problem? It's a cheapie generic thing, no idea where i'd find any drivers for it. When i plug my Blackberry in via USB, it reads the 4Gb micro SD card in that just fine (although it keeps telling me it needs to scan it for errors every time).
