Computer problems over! Oh wait... |
|
|
Well after getting a new pc after the monster previous computer I had (and by monster I mean a tower the size of tall thin crate as if it's compensating for having not even the graphics processing power to run games fully from 3 years ago) I took the plunge and switched to windows 7 as it's had no-where near the kind of rage from users windows vista had.
For the most part I've got no real complaints, even the blatent ideas ripped from Apple do nothing but benefit the OS. What does annoy me however are the following:
Program files (x86): on what planet were they on when they decided this was a good idea? Some Programs literally refuse to being installed to this directory yet they made it a default, I understand that programs run in different bit modes now, but although I'm not familair with the full details why do they need a new directory, isn't that what compatability mode is for? =P
Mass file moving: something everyone has to do when backing up or restoring data, in the past you could just leave a process running for moving/ copying files, so why is it now that if I close everything running in the directorys tab it also closes any copying processes? Little too over simplfied imo microsoft
recording "what you hear" sound: is another thing I haven't figured out yet, but I haven't put in enough time yet to know for sure if it can/can't be done yet
and lastly
Premiere CS4 glitches: every other program seems fine except a hard to replace one of course =P I've never had any problems before apart from slowdown from the 30+ gig project I've been working on, so why is it now that I'm on windows 7 if I save changes and go back to the project it crashes every single time? It's just as well I've been saving copies or I would have lost everything -_-
All this kinda makes me hark back to when I got my fist windows xp computer, but at least I'm safe in the knowledge that windows 7 will always be more stable then that started off as.
