The Ribbon Interface Will Be In ALL Programs That Run On Win7
It's called the Scenic Ribbon and you can already see it in Paint, Wordpad and Movie Maker. The Ribbon originated in Office 2007 and has been improved even more in Office 2010. Untill now it has only been a part of Office however starting with Windows 7 the Ribbon will be a part of the Operating System. That means any programmer will be able to add the ribbon to his program instead of the current menu bar. Microsoft envisions a future where all programs running on Windows will have a ribbon instead of the menu bar.

Graphics Adapter Won't Support Aero Interface
Just today I got a new Diamond Stealth S120 256MB graphics card for the upgrade to Windows 7. When I ran the Windows 7 upgrade advisor, though, it said that my current graphics adapter won't support Windows Aero Interface. What's wrong? Do I have insufficient memory on it?

Can't Install Programs From Run DL Option In 7077
Not sure if anyone's reported this yet, but I did a clean install of 7077 on my backup computer and anytime I start an application download and select "run" from the download menu, it downloads the program but will not start it, I have to go back and save the file, and run the .exe from there. Anyone else run into this and found a fix?

Most 32-bit Programs Won't Run In RTM
I've been using Win7 since the beta, and not once have I had this problem 'till now (and I've used builds 7000, 7100, 7229, and 7260 without issues). But starting with build 7600.16384 (I have the RTM now (7600.16385)), I've been having trouble getting 32-bit programs to work. At first they were slow to start--now they won't start at all. Originally I could work around it by running them apps as Admin w/compatability for Vista SP2, but now even that doesn't work. 64-bit apps startup fine (Photoshop, IE8, any built-in app, etc.), but anything 32-bit will just sit in the Task Manager all day, with the memory usage never above 3-4MB, and simply fail to start. No error messages, no abrupt termination, just nothing. The only exceptions have been FL Studio 8 and Steam (but Steam games won't run), both of which run perfectly despite being 32-bit. I can only last so long using IE and not being able to play any games.

Running Programs Icons Doesn't Stick
I have searched for similar problem into the forums and I wasn't able to find it. The problem found is as follows: I'm testing Windows 7 RC in Spanish joined to a domain, login as network user that has all privileges on local machine. I have a running icon for an AntiVirus (McAfee VirusScan 8.7i spanish) that doesn't appear per default in taskbar. If I click on the arrow to bring the pull down that has the rest of applications running and click on customize and choose for that icon that I want to see it permanently (See icon and notifications) the icon appears and sticks. If I shut down or reboot the system, next time I log-on that icon doesn't appear stuck on taskbar and I have to repeat the operation. That occurs every time I log to the system. Any ideas to solve it?

Some Programs Won't Run/install, Explorer Slow, Ect.
It was all fine until yesterday. I copied over a game from my laptop the night before (I just installed 7 on this computer recently, was copying over stuff from my laptop) and also finished installing World of Warcraft and not long after I turned off the computer. The next day I switched it on and didn't notice anything at first but some programs wouldn't run (Winamp would have a blank space where the music list normally is). I tried installing some virtual drive programs such as magic disc and power iso which I usually use for isos I rip onto the computer (I lost some discs before so I've been doing that recently) but the magic disc programs wouldn't run properly and power iso wouldn't progress during its installation. I tried installing some anti spyware like AVG and Avast (Spyware doctor detected 300 odd tracking cookies that appeared in the past week I installed, way more than it did with my vista laptop) but they would just either not respond (and then pop up with a message saying it took a while and wouldn't respond) or just not even progress when it was installing (on the part where it begins putting down files) Explorer itself is slow and takes a while to load when on "My computer" and usually wouldn't display USB drives. Once it did but it didn't actually open it up when I clicked on it and prevented the window from responding. I have used task manager to close all these down when they wouldn't. When I tried switching off my computer it just stayed on the logging off/shutting down screen. I tried leaving it overnight, expecting it to finally switch off but it only ende up going into sleep mode (and popped up with the log in screen when I waked it up) I have switched the computer off and on a few times but its still the same. I also got the disc I used to install and tried to repair it but it wouldn't boot from the disc when I switched on the PC and when I opened it up and ran the setup file, it came up with the usual "are you sure you want to run this" dialog and didn't do anything.

Taskbar Bug, Doesn't Bring Programs To Front
This is the second time I've gotten this bug, and it seems to occur roughly two weeks after a fresh install. Long story short, I pin all of my favorite applications to the taskbar and when I click on a running program, I expect it to bring focus to that program (bring it to the front). Instead, it flashes yellow and the window that I want stays behind every other window. The only program that does not do this is Digsby for whatever reason. Basically, the only way to see an existing window is to minimize all of the windows in front of it and only clicking on the window itself will give it focus. That's partly a lie, because I've discovered that a series of clicks on the taskbar icon will do it, namely: right click, left click, right click, left click. I don't want to have to do four clicks when one normally works. I am running Windows 7 Professional 64-bit acquired through the MSDN program for students (Academic Alliance or something). I do know that I never had these issues in the beta with Ultimate edition.

Aero Causes Graphics Card To Run On Max Clocks?
Since I installed win7pro, I noticed that my graphics card's temperature was higher than in Vista (while "idle" - looking at the desktop or movina windows around) due to higher clocks. I have a GeForce 9600 GT with 190.38 drivers. In Vista, when I was using Aero, clocks were the "at the bottom" (the 2D setting). This allowed me to use Windows normally, browse Internet, check my mail, etc for above 2 hours. But now in Win7, the clocks are maxed out... When I leave Windows for 15 seconds, they finally go down do minimum (as they should), but that doesn't happen often. Most of the time, whenever I open a window / move it, or just move a mouse... if the clocks weren't max, they are now. This is really bad, because it raises overall temperature and shortens the time I can work on battery. Right now I just hovered my mouse over the taskbar, my graphics card instantly switched to 3D-mode... When I force the clocks (with drivers) to lowest ones, all the animations are still non-choppy, so I'm sure Aero is not that GPU-demandable. There has to be a bug somewhere. If someone wants to check if he has the same issue, just run GPU-Z or install RivaTuner. Can this be fixed? WILL this be fixed?

'doesn't Have A Valid IP Adress' Error
I'm running Windows 7 64-bit. Evaluation version 7100. The driver for the ethernet connection is some sort of Intel driver built in with the Dell E520 Motherboard. The thing is, the wireless works. I use a D-Link Xtreme N Desktop Adaptor (DWA-552). But my computer is in such an awkward location in the house that it's not really an excellent option, so I got 20m of ethernet cable to hook up my PC to the router which is a D-Link DI-614+. The Router and modem are connected to a PC that is running Windows XP. When I plug in the cable to my computer it sorts it out for a while but it ends up saying it doesn't have a valid IP address? This only occurs with the ethernet cable and not the wireless. Could this be a case that my computer is too advanced? What if I rolled back to 32-bit or XP? The drivers for the DI-614 are already at the latest, and D-Link discontinued support for it like 5 years ago. There are several other computers in the network and they work with the ethernet cable and wireless too, but they're all XP. So it's probably something with Windows 7. Having stable connection to the internet is just the main goal I want here.

Run Different Language Programs
How do i keep the OS in English, but run another program as a different language There should be an option to have a program always run as a set language I would like to be able to run an English, Japanese and Korean program side by side, not reset the computer just to run one app. I Know about applocal, but some times it does not cut it and the program fails to run properly. Windows should let me run a program from any country, not just one at a time.

Can Startup Programs Run As Administrator ?
I have a couple of programs (Logitech Setpoint is one) which need to run as administrator in order to work in some programs (e.g. Visual Studio 2005). They are set to run at start-up, however since I've set them to run as administrator, they don't run. Is there any way to get these to run at start up?

Sound Drivers = Only Able To Run Programs As Admin
When I install the drivers for my HTO Striker 7.1 and restart to complete driver installation, suddenly, I can only run anything if I right click and Run as Administrator.. not even Firefox. Its annoying to have to get the gray User Access Control screen everytime I want to do something, as well as having to right click and left click just to start a program. HTO Striker 7.1 drivers on their site are listed as being good for Windows 7 x64. What could be happening here? Has anyone had this problem?

Run 16-bit Programs From A Command Line
Since DOS 2.0 I have written and collected command line programs. Many do things not possible without command line support. Such as run an Assembler and editor from a .BAT file (I use A86 if you want to search for it) to created and run handy small .COM programs. But none of these 16-bit programs work on my Vista 64-bit. A friend has the same computer I have, but with Vista 32-bit and he verified a few of my .COM programs worked fine. ? Would I be able to install Win 7 32-bit and run them?

Issue: Fresh Win7 Install; Cannot Run ANY Programs
I downloaded Windows 7 from MSDNAA from my school and burned it to a blank DVD (4.90GB I believe is the capacity). Everything seemed to work fine and the burn didn't seem corrupted even when I burned it at full speed, so please keep this in mind for the following issue. After I successfully installed Windows 7 Professional 64 Bit on my system, I ran into an issue. Certain programs will not open or execute at all, whether it be a setup file or even Internet Explorer 8. Windows Media Player opens sometimes, but bugs out too every now and then. This is hindering me because since this is a fresh install, that means I cannot begin to install drivers such as the latest Catalyst drivers for my HD 3870. Even if I open it as Administrator, it does nothing but show the usual "Processing" mouse animation spinning symbol and after a while, nothing shows up. I checked the task manager and I see it is still running, but since I don't see anything, I have to kill the process. Again, this happens with more than 50% of the Application files/Programs that I have tried and this is a fresh install of Windows 7. I have tried to re-install Windows 7 again to no avail. One weird error message I got was when I tried to open the sample "Wildlife in HD" video just to test it out: "Server Execution Failed". I don't know what else to try and right now I am using my laptop with Windows XP to use this forum since I can't even open my browser on my desktop. Is there a way to solve this problem? Sorry for my first lengthy post, but I wanted to provide as much detail as possible. And I think my specs should show below since I filled that part out....does it?

Cannot Run .Net Framework Related Programs (Visual Studio Crashes)
I have just received a brand new Dell XPS 435 PC. I have just installed Windows 7 x64 Ultimate and Installed all Windows Updates. There is a problem with .Net related programs. - I started by installing SQL Server 2005 x64 Client Tools (SQL Server Management Studio). The setup program crashed while installing the client tools. I checked the event log and there are errors reported by the .Net Runtime Optimization Service. I uninstalled SQL Server 2005. - Then I installed Visual Studio 2008. When I start Visual Studio, it crashes during the splash screen. - I found out about Aaron Stebner's .NET Framework Setup Verification Tool (http://blogs.msdn.com/astebner/pages/8999004.aspx). I ran the tool and it reports that the .Net Framework 3.5 SP1 test fails. The log reports this error: [10/14/09,15:23:17] ****ERROR**** File C:WindowsMicrosoft.NETFrameworkv3.5Windows Presentation FoundationNPWPF.dll is not installed on the system (Let me know if you need the full log.) - There are a lot of errors in the event log. They are about mscorsvw.exe crashing and about the .NET Runtime Optimization Service failing to compile some files.

Graphics Adapter Can't Support Aero On XP Computer
graphics adapter can't support aero on XP computer...i'm a bit confused about graphics adapter vs. video card. i know that this is probably a fairly basic question but i am confused as to what drivers/hardware i might have to upgrade to be able to run aero on an older XP computer. I installed a new graphics card last year on it (nvidia geforce 7300 gs) which windows 7 upgrade advisor says is compatible but on the same report it told me that the graphics adapter is not. the computer shipped with an ATI Radeon Xpress 200---i guess i'm confused as to what exactly the graphics adapter is and how i go about seeing if i can upgrade it to run aero.
