Thanks dude... I'll wait out (in agony) the last couple of days of this month and just score another copy.

Thanks again :)

Hey and welcome

I agree completely with DNG and only have one thing to add. Since this is your only win 7 install did the install go without a hitch? Just wondering if your install dvd might have had a problem.

Best of all re-install its always the best solution even if it is a pain in the neck

Good Luck

Hey Guys

I formatted about 2 days ago. I'm now running Windows 7 (build 7260) and it's running great. No problems whatsoever :)

Thanks for the help :)

Glad to hear it. Happy to help

I had a similar problem when I'd installed W7 RC on a partiton that had Vista Ult. on it. I had to reformat the partition and reinstall...Voila! no more issues!

It would seem that W7 does not play well with others :)

Its one of the of the cardinal rules, clean install. Another is its the driver, and rtfm.

Glad you working. I like win 7 so much I hate it when someone has a problem that forces them back to vista or xp

I'm having precisely the same problem. I've reformatted & reinstalled twice from two different dvd drives. Set BIOS to default. Shuffled the ram around. Shuffled USB devices around. Tried different mice. Moved my PCI cards around. Nothing. It's weird though, cuz everything ran fine for the first week. Now even after reinstall, actually during install itself, the mouse clicks won't do anything for a few seconds to several minutes. It's not a mouse issue because it will highlight items when the pointer gets over them. It just doesn't respond to the clicks.
Very bummed. Love Win7!!! Dreading going back to XP and refuse to install that bloated monstrosity that is Vista. Any solutions anyone might find would make me and several others very happy campers! Please Help!

Try a different build, or completely different version/disc and see what you come up with...

I'd love to but I only have a copy of 7100 I believe it is and Microsoft isn't offering the download anymore. Getting a copy of it off a torrent makes me a bit nervous, but I guess I could disconnect my data drives. Will the code Microsoft gave me for the 7100 work with a more recent build?

It should work, because it worked for me. I can't guarentee it, although I did swop codes between a 32bit 7100 build and a 64bit 7260 build and it worked... Good luck dude.
