Sogi-Ya: good for you, the rest of us mere mortals typically didn't have access to the resources necessary to construct our own PCs :P I just did a clean install, copied what files I didn't want to loose to my secondary hard drive and let the rest go. whoever says that Win 7 is the most stable thing ever is so full of shit their eyes are brown, I had two blue screens and three hard locks during the process of updating off of MS update.
Interesting. These days, that's usually a hardware driver problem. 7 is generally stable, compared with previous versions of Windows, but it's still got it's quirks.

Thankfully for the Linux enthusiasts and MS bashers, MS seems not to have learned anything from Vista and is tossing everything they managed to get right with 7 out the door for 8.

Why? You lived in some backwater place? I mean, if I was able to do it, in a shitty little country I imagine somebody from the mighty US could do it a million times easier.
Windows 7 is a pinnacle of operating systems made by MS. If you had any problems with blue screens that means you are using incompatible hardware, maybe upgrade that SCSI card you have from your win xp days? :P
Also, next time maybe you'd like to build your own rig which will work perfectly instead of pouring your money into some incompetent store which makes generic pcs and sells them like "hardcore gaming rigs" lol.
Or buy a mac? Seems like a perfect computer for you :)

Back in the '90s there used to be this computer catalog/ magazine called 'Computer Shopper'. It was thick like a phone book and was 95% computer parts listings. A new one came out every month and you had to pay for it. It's what I used before the rise of Amazon and the likes.

Driver and hardware issues, not related to OS.

That's my suspicion. As much as I'd love to blame this on MS, it's far more likely that it's a driver or hardware problem. Win 7 is about as stable as any OS I've ever used. It does have other issues, but instability isn't one of them.

I remember those, I remember the good times looking through to see what I could get. And the bad times when I bought an i740 graphics card.
