Why Does Win 7 Not Support 1900x1200 On Laptops ?
I am trying to figure out why Vista and Win7 do not support 1900x1200 on any of my laptops. I am currently testing on 2 HP systems that are capable of 1900x1200 screens. When I had XP Pro installed I was able to enjoy 1900x1200.
When I moved to Vista and Win7 the best resolution I am able to achieve is 1680x1050 on system 1 and 1024x768 on system 2.
Seems a bit odd that both Vista and Win7 can not support the resolution on either system yet XP can.

Create An Image Of Win 7 To Deploy To 10 Laptops
I have a customer that just purchased new laptops with Windows 7 Enterprise. They want me to install Windows 7, update drivers, Office, Adobe Reader, etc. and then create an image of that laptop to deploy to the others they purchased. All are the same model laptops. No special configuration required. What the simplest method for this? All the deployment tools seem overly complicated for this simple task.

10 days before i purchase a new hp laptop with core 2 duo processor, 4 gb ram, 512 mb video card , 320 gb har disk with windows 7 by default installed in it. but i also want windows xp in ma system for my work. because some softwares are not compatible with windows 7 like .net,oracle etc. so i have to use xp also. but when i called hp technical center they tell me that there is no option or no way to install xp on hp laptops because their hardware does nt support xp, and they said me that if i forcibly try to install xp then might be hardware will corrupt. then i se this virtual pc concept. here as one tool is given on Microsoft site to check that whether our pc supports virtualization or not . and then i download tht tool and instaall it. it gives error " YOUR HARDWARE OR PROCESSOR DOES NOT SUPPORT HARDWARE VIRTUALIZATION " something like that. how to install this virtual pc if i havng problem like that? i also go to bios option to enable the hardware virtualization but there i see there is no such option of enabling and disabling.

Two Laptops To Be Connected With Lan
I have two laptops - A running on W7-RC and B running on XP-Pro SP2. Whereas both can be connected to the web through wireless connection, I am not able to connect each other on LAN - i.e. I am not able to access files on B from A or vice versa. My DSL router is US Robottics which is already set up for internet connection.

Connect 2 Laptops With Crossover Cable
So I bought a crossover cable just to connect two laptops. Like, a network. Mine is running on windows 7 and the other laptop is running on Vista. So I configured both laptops to be in the same workgroup (left the homegroup in Windows 7) and configured both NIC's to have an IP in the same class - one of them is 10.1.1.1 and the other one is 10.1.1.2 and subnet masks are the same 255.255.255.0. Now, I should be able to ping each of the laptops. But it pings only from Vista (10.1.1.2) to Windows 7 (10.1.1.1) and not the other way. Network window in Windows 7 shows some computers in the different network, but in the same building, but does not show the laptop connected with the crossover cable. Network window in win vista does not show any computers. Both computers have some shared folders (for users Guest and Everyone). I would really like to know what am I doing wrong, and how do I connect these two computers so I could easily transfer some files?

Offline Files (2 Laptops, And Network Storage)
Ok here's what I am trying to do. I have two laptops one Windows 7 (7127 x64) the other XP Pro(at the moment), and a Maxtor Family Storage II Network Drive. I have the same profile setup on all three items. I want all of the files in my library that I have on my Windows 7 machine to be copied over to the Maxtor Network drive. Then I want the XP machine to copy the files from the Network to its self using the Offline option in XP. Im trying to have the Maxtor drive keep the most resent copy of any file I modify on either laptop. That way when I take one of them with me when I return to my home it will sync up with the Maxtor drive and update those files always keeping the newest copy. I would like to do this without having to add any third party software if I can. I have been trying for days to get this to work and it fails to copy any files to any of the other drives. If someone has a link to a Tutorial or anything that would help me get this that would be great.

Laptops Applying Computer Settings When Not Connected To The Network
I have an issue when booting Windows 7 Enterprise clients that are running on Laptops specifically where it tries to run Group Policy Computer settings when not connected to the Network, (i.e. no cable connected and WiFi switched off). Â It will sit there for approx. 4 minutes whilst booting "Applying Computer Settings. Â This should not be the cased and should detect that a DC is not available and skip applying GP settings.

Does Win 7 Rc Support FTP ?
I installed IIS management tools, created and configured (fairly certain) an ftp share. I've enabled permissions from the Windows firewall to incoming and outgoing FTP resources. I configured my linksys WRT610N for FTP access (Already worked with 2003 server), but cannot gain access from outside my network. I can share files internally, but have not tried to TELNET in or out of the Windows 7 pc. I couldn't find much on technet regarding FTP setup on Windows 7 - any thoughts?

Win 7 Does Not Support New PC Games
Question about PC games. Shall Windows 7 support also PC games that have meant to work with Windows XP and Vista? There is obviously support for the games. Or is it only that Windows doesn't support yet fully 64 bit platforms? For example HP Pavillion dv6000 with AMD 64 AthlonX2 doesn't work with Games that have been made for Windows Vista. Â

Multi Language Support In Win 7
I'm planning to buy a new PC with Windows 7 (English) and not sure what version I should buy. I need to be able to switch into Japanese language mode for writing Word documents and composing/reading email sometimes. I do not need the desktop, menus etc. to be displayed in Japanese, however. I've found some info on the Internet and MS web site but still confused: 1) I have read that LIPs can be installed on any version of Win 7 but looks like Japanese must be installed as a full install (no parent language). If this is the case, can I setup 2 user accounts and configure one for English and the other for Japanese? 2) Do I need to have Win 7 Ultimate or Enterprise edition to do what I want to do?

Does Win 7 Ultimate Edition Support Both 32 And 64 ?
I would like to ask this straightforward question: does Windows 7 Ultimate Edition support both 32 and 64 bits? I have a legal copy of it and installed it on my Vista Business PC, but it seems to be running at 32 bits only. Is it because of this Vista only supporting 32 bits? How do you tell the bits your OS is running at?

Does Win 7 Support Symbolic Links ?
I'm researching an issue in which Windows 7, Vista, and Windows 2008 Server cannot delete user profiles host on an EMC SAN (The error says that I require permission from the user, even if I AM the user). XP and 2003 Server do not have this issue and can delete the same files without any problems. During my research I've been looking into some of the new features introduced in Vista and up that may be responsible for this issue. I'm away of UAC and have tried all settings related to that without success. I also see that support for Windows Symbolic Links was introduced with Vista (see link) however I can't find out if Windows 7 also supports it. Does anyone know?

Win 7 - Support For Legacy Hardware
Buy new hardware is not an option. ALL Windows OS prior to Vista contained support for Legacy hardware devices. The drivers for these devices would load just fine and run as designed. Then along comes Vista and no more support for Legacy hardware. Please correct me if I am wrong, but Windows XP required less HD space than Windows 7, but XP offered more support for ALL hardware and drivers, while Windows 7 doesn’t allow any legacy support? Now Windows 7 is touted as being the “End-All-Be-All� of OS's. I smell Vista in a new package, with no support for legacy hardware. Why is that? Does Microsoft really think that we should scrap the devices that we have and buy new hardware just because we need to in order to run an inferior OS? Linux doesn't seem to have an issue with legacy hardware in their newest releases, nor does Apple. I will not throw away thousands of dollars of hardware just because Microsoft will not support it. My Dell GX270 test platform worked just fine with Windows XP Pro. The hardware did it's job very well. Sorry Microsoft, I am not going to replace all of our systems just because you are too lazy to allow support for legacy hardware. I guess that I am stuck with XP Pro until Microsoft stops supporting it, or comes up with a real live working OS. If I must, I will transition all of the systems to Linux and Microsoft can die a slow painful death. Gee, you would have thought that Microsoft may have learned a lesson with the Vista failure. I guess that the developers at Microsoft have forgotten that WE, the consumer put them where they are at today. Continuation of FAILING to support WE, the consumer will only lead you to continued failure in the marketplace.

Win 7 Support Of Dynamic Disks
I understand there will be a preorder of Windows 7 comming out, but I haven't found informaiton on which version(s) will support Dynamic disks? Background: I had Vista 64 Home Premium and installed Windows 7 (now RC) after adding two 1.5 TB drives which I wanted to run stipped. I couldn't get Dynamic disk to function in Home Prenium and from what I read on the web, I needed Ultamate. Windows 7 was available and worked. The public betas are only Ultimate, so it's dificlut to determine what functionality is lost on other versions. I haven't found a detailed feature list that indicates which versions will support Dynamic disks (Supersite for Windows, searching Microsoft forums).

Win 7 Support For Seagate Disk
In Windows 7 RTM I have had trouble with one of my two HDs, a Seagate 300 GB. During Windows 7 installation, installer "could not find drivers" when the Seagate was the first SATA drive. Once the Western Digital drive was set as the first drive, system installed ok. After installation, the Seagate shows in the Disk Management as 300 GB, but if look at contents with Explorer, it has only 125 GB capacity. Can this be a Seagate firmware problem? (Windows 7 RC earlier had no problems with this drive when the system had Win7RC + Vista + XP.)

Win 7 Virtualization Without Hardware Support ?
I just set up a 64 bit computer using an Intel Q8200 quad core processor. Using this same processor/MB arrangement on Vista 64 machines I could virtualize with no issues. Under Win 7 I'm told that VM 2007 won't run, and the new RC of Microsoft's VM requires hardware support not included in this particular chip! Any workarounds?

Will 32 Bit Win 7 Support 8 GB Ram ?
will 32 bit win 7 public release support 8 GB ram?It would be nice cuz there are 32 bit games + lost's more nice things so I cant use 64 bit os if I wanna use 32 bit soft. If windows serve can handle 128G ram and more then why cant win 7 handle 8 G ram. if you (Microsoft) don't code 8 GB support in 2 bit win 7 u loose ur clients.me for example. I just downloaded 32 bit Ubuntu linux and installed server kernel on it, and now I can use my 8 GB ram :) And I won't buy next windows until these memory limits are 4 GB off topic: if u plan make 8 GB support I can be tester.
