7100 *bugs only*

I had a problem with the new taskbar hover effect, what happened was that after i hovered a button of a non-active program and then move my mouse on the desktop, the button still had that white dot and selection on it , and if the button was a opened program one, the glow following the cursor would remain on,even with my mouse on another selected window. After a reboot, it's back to normal

The second thing i got was , after the test update, when i was in windows update i had "1 important update" but it was nothing in that selection. Today i did some reboots of the computer and the update finally showed up in the "important" selection.

Except this small problems, I like the direction windows 7 is going ! (I better like it because it's the thing i will see for the next 4 years)

I was wondering if anyone has a problem with the Weather gadget and getting the message "Service not available in your region"? I remember that the gadget once worked in some earlier build, I don't know what went wrong along the way... Also I remember I had the gadget working when installing W7 Beta in a VMWare virtual machine without any problems.

added a toolbar onto the Superbar and used large icons for that toolbar. Icon size does not match with regular superbar icons.

Just right click toolbars on the superbar and add desktop for instance. Right click again and set the toolbar to large icons, superbar should size up a little.

Aero shake.

The scenario is having two windows open, one is maximized, and another isn't. The smaller window is in focus. Shaking the smaller windows correctly minimizes the maximized window in the back. However, when shaking the same smaller window again, the maximized window is correctly restored, but the mouse loses its, "Grip" on the smaller window being shaken.

When the same scenario is repeated, this time with both windows not maximized, the mouse doesn't lose its grip.

Not sure if it's really a bug or intentional, but it is kind of annoying.

Anyone having trouble running Spotify on Windows 7 RC 64bit? Works great on the 32bit version, but the 64bit version doesn't load any UI, the process just sits and does nothing.

I had the same problem, takes about 5 minutes to start up.

Where do you live that it doesn't have your region avaiable?

You could try out one of the many other weather gadgets floating around the net (or, you could look out of the window to see how the weather is ;) )

I moved my taskbar over to the left side to try it there, and when I moved it back to the bottom it is now way too big - about 1 1/2 inches thick with the buttons floating at the top instead of full square cubes as they were. I tried to unlock and resize it and it won't budge. Seems buggy.

Someone with the same problem I have:

"The first account made (Administrator) Or the profile you created works completely fine right? When you try create another account it works, but you have the following errors. (Cannot resize window, Cannot Close Window, Cannot Enlarge window)

<image>

All W7 updates installed, graphics driver fine (don't have Aero due to not-so-great onboard vid card); windows are fine in my main account, just not in anyone elses- they can't double click titlebar to maximize, grab it to move, or resize or click the X to close the window as it's greyed out.

Any ideas, solutions or fixes? Anyone with the same problem?

It's been mentioned running Regedit and/or copying my working AppData folder to theirs works but this doesn't for me. Quite a serious bug IMO.

I had this problem on 7000, with clean install. After I deleted the account, and recreated it, it worked.

BUG: The home folder changes icon by itself after some time.

I think its a bug and it hasn't been caused by some app.

[Theymademedoit]

As mentioned in my seperate thread:

the Album Art bug which shows the album art of each song..looking very ugly

and the folder view bug, no every folder and things in a folder are shown as Large icons?!?!?

I don't know what i did but it wasn't always like that, it used to be shown as details and not as large...

My sister got for a present a Toshiba NB105 for his birthday. i installed on a second partition Windows 7.

I got some bugs:

The system went totally unstable since the installer finished. It was impossible to use. There were lag in every program. The Start Menu took 3 seconds to show up. I updated to the latest drivers of every device, and nothing, the same lag in all the system. It solved after i updated the BIOS ver. from 1.6 to 1.9. The odd part is that in the change log only fixes some keyboard conbination.

There is frame skipping in the videos played in WMP. Solved using another video player.

No matter what Nvidia drivers installed 179, 182, 185 all to the latest, works perfect but when you want to uninstall then restart the PC, i get these errors everytime.

userinit.exe 0x77283892

taskhost.exe ""

dwm.exe ""

werfault.exe 0x76f93892

explorer.exe ""

logonui.exe"" - can't CTRL+ALT+DEL or get this error

conhost.exe 0x778e3892

cmd.exe 0xc0000142

All of these errors after uninstalling and restarting pc, get to login screen, click a user then these show after a while of the loading circle spinning. I goto safemode and cannot get in, make it to login screen click a name and pc constantly reboots.

Only way i can fix this is go back to previous restore point.

It's only NVIDIA, nothing else, never have crashed 7100RC and previous build 7077 i could atleast uninstall then go into safe mode and reinstall other drivers, normally booting on 7077 also got these errors but atleast safe mode worked, 7100 safemode oesnt after uninstalling nvidia drivers.

wierd.

you are not allowd to talk about warez photoshop releases and we will not help you.

Sometimes my start menu has the bottom 1/3 cut off.

It either fixes itself or I have to restart explorer.exe

Possible UI bug or feature?

When tiling 2 program windows vertically by moving them to the edge of the screen (AeroSnap), it seems that each window size is not memorized as usual. After opening a full screen application while mantaining the desktop resolution, each program windows defaults to the original size it had before the tiling operation. Is the AeroSnap state size only temporary?

[zach_]

It is a feature to restore the window dimensions when you exit AeroSnap. I find it very useful.

Bug not founded on 7000. But it appeared on 7100 and now on 7201 too:

The Taskbar get ignored by any app when it goes to full screen mode. I tried restore and go full screen again. Still any application window takes all the screen instead of maximize but take the Taskbar in count and dont go behind it.

[zach_]

If I fullscreen (F11) in Firefox now, the taskbar is hidden so it isn't any app. In Vista, I couldn't hide the taskbar when in fullscreen mode in Photoshop CS3, unless I connected another monitor.

[ObiWanToby]

wow, your 4850 can get 6.8?

My gtx 260 SLI can only get 6.5/6.5. :-p,

I guess it is either a bug (windows 7 or driver) or Windows 7 doesn't really like Nvidia cards

4850 is pretty quick, plus it supports DX 10.1 which brings some performance optimizations.

Windows 7 7100 32-bit

-My system cannot hibernate!

Unless this is fixed, once the 7100 trial period expires next year this machine is going back to Vista.

Other problems:

-Sound Volume is really high, I have to lower the volume to 17%.

-With transparency on drawing windows seems slower than Vista, probably a driver issue

I have a Toshiba Satellite A205-S4577 laptop, originally Vista Home Premium X86. Specs:

Intel Core 2 Duo T5300 / 1.73 GHz

Mobile Intel 945GM Express chipset

2GB PC5300 DDR2 SDRAM 667 MHz RAM

160 GB - Serial ATA-150 - 5400 rpm hard drive

DVD+/-RW (+/-R DL) / DVD-RAM - Integrated DVD burner

Intel GMA 950 video card

Intel PRO/Wireless 3945ABG wireless card

Have not tried wireless networking.

[MrChainsaw]

After my computer wakes up after a couple of hours, there's no internet connection, although on the other pc (XP) there is.
