Question from rebirthrelive: Is Windows 7 compatible with pc games?
Im going to be getting a new computer and I intend to game on it, are there compatibility issues with windows 7 that I should worry about between games and accessories such as controllers.
So is it just mainly older games that have compatability issues? Im mainly referring to new stuff like l4d2, or assasins creed or bioshock new games that are coming out.

Is W7 compatable with PC games?
Yes.
Are *all* PC games compatable with W7?
No.
As for controllers…why ruin a good game by limiting yourself with a controller? 
But…yes, most controllers are compatable, provided you have the drivers. Just like printers, graphics cards and other computer hardware (including the keyboard & mouse), you need a compatable driver. Just remember that if you don’t have or can’t find a driver that works with W7, it’s not Microslut’s fault…it’s the company that makes the component. It’s how they ensure they make sales, by refusing to create drivers for older hardware.
Good Luck!
PS: A decent “gaming” computer should put you back at least 00 minimum.

Question from Kenan: Disk read error CTRL+ALT+DELETE (Windows 7 boot up), trying to triple boot?
OK So I have Windows 7 and Ubuntu on my PC. I have installed Windows XP SP3 x86 as the third one as I need it to update my Samsung Omnia HD, which my only option left is to get Windows XP.
So I finish installing Windows XP and it says to reboot, so I do so and when it gets up to the ‘boot from cd’ bit, I either press any key to continue (Which then goes into the set up AGAIN) or leave it without pressing any key, which then says “Disk read error CTRL+ bla bla bla to restart”. It also has some letters highlighted at some places.
The only way I can get back onto Windows 7 is to insert that disc in and repair startup.
How can I get Windows XP running on my pc? Do I have to remove Ubuntu first? I had that in mind because maybe my computer does not support more than dual since at startup it has a logo type of picture saying “Dual Bios”
Please do not say to install ‘Windows XP Mode’, I have Home premium, it doesn’t support it (Unless you got a way to get it to work, as someone in a forum said they did)

Well it doesn’t even startup anyway, but i’ve got EasyBCD and apparently, that corrects it so you are able to have Windows 7 pre installed

when i had installed windows XP and windows 7 together on the same HDD by making 2 separate partition
I made a mistake i installed windows 7 first and then installed windows XP
so after installing windows XP there was only windows XP in OS selection menu
i could not get windows 7 back even if it was perfect
I found that i should have installed windows XP first
So i think you should remove all of your OS then re-partition your drive
Install windows XP then install windows 7 finally go for Ubuntu but install ubuntu in DEMO mode other wise it would ask for partition of disc in non windows format so that a part of your disc will be taken up by ubuntu
Good luck………

Question from Past. Present. Future.: Windows 7 Boot Issues?
Hi,
Just bought a Dell Inspiron 560:
Win 7 HP
CORE 2 QUAD 2.5Ghz
4GB DDR3
640GB
ATI HD 5450 1GB
and it’s playing up already. The OS was pre-installed and about a week into running it, it often struggles booting up Windows. It switches on, loads the BIOS, gets onto ‘Windows is Starting’ and before the colourful dots start appearing, switches off and reboots. This process happens about 2-5 times before it eventually boots properly. I am often given the startup repair option, which does not find any errors. Memory test is fine also. I am probably going to re-install Windows, but what is strange is that if I restart the computer (when logged on), these issues do not happen. It could be the PSU, but I am not sure.
2yr guarantee on it btw, so will get Dell round if no one knows.
Any ideas?
Thanks

after bootup, how many processes running in task manager will tell u what up..ctrl-alt-delete…..40 processes with 3rd party antivirius and firewall…no real reason to have more than 45…more than that is a hack been done to u….if the processes are right …..try mircosoft fix it client download and run…..free….or….try running recovery and get out of box condition…..want to do a complex fix….get the list of HK commands and edit registry entries……no recomended unless u know how…one mistake and its a wash without re-install from a bootable disc…..

Answer by ItachisXeyes
try going in the box and disconnecting the disk drive from the PSU and mother board
(and in case you where planning otherwise….i’d also shutdown and unplug the computer BEFORE going into the box, XD)
then you’ll be able to boot up and service the real issue…of which i am not entirely sure but that should stop the messages from spaming you

It’s not like you can install only 2 OS.
You can install other OS’s also(No of OS can installed, I am not sure).Because i saw the systems running 3 OS.
First install Any Windows Operating Systems and Then install Linux OS. Because most of the times Windows OS overwrite MBR(Master Boot Record, So you can’t see the Other OS installed on your Machine, Some times both the OS’s can’t work.
So install XP first, then Windows 7 and the Install UBUNTU.
one more thing, after installing XP, remove your installation disk from Drive and then Reboot.
Helped?
Thanks,
