Some Xp-Win7 questions
Hi,
I'm about to install Windows 7 (from XP) and have a couple of questions.
Should I use the 64 or 32 bit version? I have 4 GB of RAM.
How bad really is the thing that asks all the time if so and so can make a change? Can you have nominated programs that can do what they like (or how they do in XP?)
Will Office 97 run ?
Will PowerToys run? I think this is a Windows 95 vintage but has a very useful Send any file to the clipboard as Name.
Does Win7 have another way to do that (if Powertoys won't work)?
And finally, how good is it's XP Mode? Will it save the day for things that don't work in Win 7 ?
Thanks for any answers. I have Googled around for answers but no real hits. Almost as many for Windows 7 as there are who say keep XP. Hmmm....
