    Tweak VI is a no-no.

    If you use Belarc Advisor it tells you your are using Windows XP (7000)

    Use Epson DX9400F all-in-one, accepted the Scanner part but not the printer despite downloading updated printer driver.

    Windows XP, eh? Seems Windows 7 is based off of the XP kernel with Vista visual upgrades?

    I have setup a playlist in Media Player, but when I insert a DATA disk into my drive, Media Player stops playback and tries to open the disk.

    Normal behaviours I understand when inserting a video DVD, but not a data disk...

    No, 7 is based on the Vista kernel, not XP.

    Belarc advisor sometimes has problems correctly identifying some software sometimes. It's not perfect. Also, it doesn't support 7 yet so, it get's confused.

    icon cache for start menu programs is SLOW.

    windows explorer doesn't immediately recognize virtual drives, might as well give me a pop up "reboot please"

    a run time C++ library error occurs each time i try to open the control panel; only way i get it to open is leave the error pop up alone try again until it is open.

    file and folder permissions are schizophrenic; sometimes i can download a file to a folder and rename, delete, move or execute it. sometimes i can't do any of the above while i haven't changed permissions in the meantime after giving myself full control over the whole drive. frustrating to have to wait until firefox downloads a file before i know if i really do have it.

    can't view desktop when moving cursor over the right side of the taskbar but works if i am logged in as a different user(option anywhere?)

    there been a few times i got my vista64 disk ready to get rid these problems. but i really do like the changes to the task bar and how i do not have to dig deep for a few other things, like changing resolution. i wish microsoft would have left explorer alone.
