It's pretty cool. Makes Vista look like Windows ME, and Windows 7 look like Windows XP. It is actually faster than Vista, i figured it would be slower with more graphics and stuff.

Great pictures!
I concur with you and have been saying the same thing for awhile:
WinME = Vista WinXP = Win7
It is like a sinusoidal curve - top of the curve xp and 7 bottom/valley WinME and Vista
Thank you Radster for sharing

Ok!!! I finally hooked it up to my TV. Media center is automatically adjusting my resolution for my crappy AVIs to be clear in full screen, and the HD TV channels radiohax.com/~andrew/picshare/win7/tvhookup/ =D Yeah, I know, this is old stuff, but it is new to me! I've been out of the whole media thing since, never! yay DVR! My phone doesn't take pictures that do this justice!

had my first problem last night with media center.... I recorded V on ABC HD, and it came out to 6.44Gb... Normally I would compress that to about 400Mb so I can store it and watch later, but nooo! I get an error about copy protection.. Now I know why they pushed DTV so hard. w/e though, I just downloaded a smaller version... Way to keep me legal MS!

Got driver issues (I suspect sound as it is usually when I'm watching a video and my instant messenger makes noises). I get random blue screens! Well, I never seen it, but I get this message: My motherboard (Asus M2A-VM HDMI) doesn't have any Windows 7 Drivers located on their site.

I already have a sound card, just missing a driver. Now I do have sound, so I'm using what Windows 7 already gives me (ATI High Definition Audio Device) *shrugs*

So you have integrated sound, a sound card, and sound via the haupppauge? If you are using the sound card - did you disable the motherboard integrated sound? Or have you installed the motherboard integrated sound drivers as well as the sound card drivers? What about the hauppauge drivers as well?

Oh sorries. I mentioned my motherboard, but it is onboard. The Hauppauge drivers came with Windows 7 (nowhere to download them on the website..). I do not have a sound card installed. I do have a sound blaster in the closet, but no room on my motherboard as my video card spans 3 spaces.
My sound devices..
An overview:

An overview: Video: It could be either the Asus Motherboard onboard drivers or the Hauppauge sound drivers. That motherboard is obsolete - thus no Win7 drivers, YET.
