And will be installing it. \u00a0God help us all&#8230; Alright well, this is me, signing off of Win7 Beta and I will update you all from Windows 7 RC with first impressions, including installation and performance. \u00a0Ooooooo Left 4 Dead&#8230;. I smell zombies.<\/p>\n<p>UPDATE(5\/6\/09): Alright, well it has taken me much longer then expected to get this blog updated with results on my upgrades to the new Windows 7 RC.\u00a0 Literally, so far, the only problem I&#8217;ve run into is NOT being able to upgrade from the Windows 7 Beta to Windows 7 RC.\u00a0 It seems like most of the slight graphical glitches and other random ass shit that was broken in beta, now appears to be fixed in Windows 7.\u00a0 I&#8217;m still seeing hand over fist improvements to frame rates in survival mode, though, there is an odd issue with Left 4 Dead, where Windows appears to be creating a separate thread to do audio, but keeps setting the volume REALLY low.\u00a0 How the fuck am I suppose to hear zombies heads explode with it that low?\u00a0 I have not looked further into fixing this, a slight annoyance in my humble opinion.\u00a0 So, any on lookers that are thinking of upgrading their Dell Studio XPS 13 or Dell Latitude D820 to Windows 7 RC can rest assured, it will work wonderfully.\u00a0 Sorry Linux, I was about ready to run you as my main OS again, looks like you&#8217;ve been taken over by my need for entertainment once again.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>AT LAST!
