Windows 7 Bug?

kari said:
i found more bugs in windows 7. When i run programs simultaneously from several external usb hd's and then constatly plug and unplug all usb cables, some programs stop running.

Another bug i found, using my test machine, is that when i cut the power from the main switch when windows is booting, after 20 or 30 retries windows can no longer read my hd.

All these bugs, why can't they give us a working os?

I still don't see why this deserves an entire debate. Most people don't need 75-80 explorer Windows open.

It's not really a debate, but more of an interesting fact. Practically you probably won't have this issue, but I'm surprised that you do.

I still think it's a bug and NOT a feature. Also, whilst 75 explorer windows sounds like a lot, in the days of ssds, 24gb mem, 6 core processors, why shouldnt the OS handle it? Answers on a postcard....

Because it allows your older programs to run on it, making your life easier and cheaper.

I think you messed up the quote. Vector said it, not me.

EDIT: Is it just me or is the quote system broken? There is no closing tag for the [ QUOTE ] tag when I quote.

I believe I did. This is the only forum that brings in multiple quotes, rather than just what the one particular person said. I think I deleted the wrong set of tags. But yes, my comments were in response to what Vector said.

I tested it on my x64 Win7 with 4GB RAM using a little program I wrote. I tried 50, 100, 500, then 1000 Notepads.

At 500 and 1000, my system was unusable. At 1000 Notepads, it warned me that resources were short and asked me if I wanted to stop Aero.

At no time did it bluescreen or otherwise error. I just couldn't do anything on the system.
