That is not true. Professiona, Enterprise, and Ultimate all have XP mode: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Windows...mparison_chart

I am downloading my OFFICIAL copy of Windows 7 Pro now!

Mooga · 08-18-2009, 10:32 PM

The RC came with the default game... however, I can't find them in the final version. Copying them over also doesn't work.

Uh, what exactly are you talking about? The default games like Solitaire and stuff?

yup

Paft · 08-19-2009, 01:59 PM

This RTM Ultimate does.

P.s you actually play them? Last time I loaded one of those up was on '98.

Mooga · 08-19-2009, 02:03 PM

I do not. BUt I was just looking for them and couldn't find them. Acording to their website, Pro SHOULD have games...

Mooga · 08-19-2009, 04:05 PM

You have to manually add them as a windows component...
FAIL.

Phatman · 08-20-2009, 01:42 AM

Wait, what? They were there in the beta and rc. WTF MS?

Mooga · 08-20-2009, 02:21 AM

In ultimate they are automatically installed. In the Pro version, you need to add them under window components. You can still get them, you just need to enable them.

Just ran Windows 7 Ultimate RTM on a virtual machine. I gave it a gig of RAM, but it was a little slow, but then again, it's a vm, so that's to be expected.

Also, as a side note, it won't reconize my GeForce 9600 GT, and thus won't enable Aero effects. Anyone have any ideas on how to make it recognize it? It doesn't seem to recognize my mobo's obnboard sound either.

You can't get Aero inside a VM. You can TRY to install VMware Tools... it might help.

Thankfully the private beta build as of September 1 supports Aero. Well seems too, I have seen screen shots but haven't tried it. I had some bad luck with a beta once and am a little skittish with VM beta.

Oh no, it's real, I saw it on TV today.

Today is the day. Pre-orders for Win7 are more than XP and Vista combined at some of the giant resellers. Amazon world wide reported that it is the biggest pre-order sales event ever. Beating out Harry Potter. lol
