I decided to buy my mac on the 22nd so i always knew when I got it cause it was the Win 7 release date
Can i reinstall the windows 7 RC for a fresh start? I think i have viruses, and i would like to start over and be safer this time around. I have the iso and key microsoft gave me.

[QUOTE=j00g0t0wnd;17978836]Wonderful story.[/QUOTE] I thought so. 7 isn't exciting anymore since I've used it for so long. OS X on a shiny new laptop is.

Also my Steam will no longer run. I've tried running in compat and admin mode, and it logs in fine, but it doesn't open a window for it. If I try to open a window from the system tray it closes itself 2 seconds later :/

i just got my Win7 Ult disc in the mail.
[QUOTE=BananasGoMoo;17980786]i just got my Win7 Ult disc in the mail.[/QUOTE] Welcome. Welcome to Windows 7. You have chosen, or been chosen, to relocate to one of the finest (read: only) remaining operating systems. I thought so much of Windows 7 that I elected to establish my Administration here in the Windows 7 thread so thoughtfully provided by Garry. I have been proud to call Windows 7 my home. And so, whether you are here to stay, or being a macfag and passing through on your way to parts shitty, welcome to Windows 7. It's faster here.
It fucking screwed up my network. I can't do shit on the internet. It took me at least 10 minutes to get from google to sending this message. Ahhhhhhh! [editline]09:27PM[/editline] Wow, apparently I had to do something special with my software for it. Looks like it's fixed. Moving on...
Now how do I change an program's icon on my desktop? I got a nice icon set and I want to use it badly.
2 years from now: Windows 8 build 7993 Edit: Wasn't being literal about the build number even though it should be around there. Can't wait for the Windows 8 Alpha, hopefully it will be as stable as the Windows 7 Alpha...

they sent me a 32bit upgrade disk? I heard they ship the 64bit and 32bit on the same disk is it true? can I unlock it

[QUOTE=Chris122990;17984595]Gee you are smart :downs:, why don't you just try making a NEW shortcut. Some programs just create special shortcuts like that; I really don't see the point in it.[/QUOTE] So then where do I actually change the icon then?
[QUOTE=person11;17983762]2 years from now: Windows 8 build 7993[/QUOTE] More like Vista SP3 Windows 7 SP1 Windows XP SP4 PAGE KING!
This has probably been asked before, but if I buy 64 bit, would there be an option to install 32 bit? I bought a netbook and put the 32bit rc on it, netbook didnt come with winxp license [even though it had XP on it]. I want to buy 64bit 7 for my main pc, but not have to buy it again just for 32 bit.
[QUOTE=The Inzuki;17984618]So then where do I actually change the icon then?[/QUOTE] If you create a new shortcut, then the "Change Icon" button should no longer be grayed out. Just go to where you installed Steam -> right click -> send to -> Desktop Now you have a spanking new shortcut ready for editing.

I was able to do this before on Vista, why can't I do it on 7? :saddowns:

[img]http://imageflock.com/img/1256365798.png[/img] Still confused.
[QUOTE=The Inzuki;17985065][img]http://imageflock.com/img/1256365798.png[/img] Still confused.[/QUOTE] press OK and chose a different icon. really so hard to press a button when its the only button? obviously its a bad ico file.
