Windows 7 Installation Part 1

Visit us at http://www.defcon-5.com/noc

After doing our downgrade to Windows XP how to video, I could free some space on my hard drive to install Windows 7 beta.

I have'nt done too much research into Windows 7 yet, as I wanted to get the brand new user experiance. However going around and checking tech logs, and sites it is inevitable to be exposed to some information.

The installation procedure is nearly identical to Windows Vista, in almost every way. There were no surprises at all. I also go through a couple of quick things I noticed right from the get go in the user interface, and some messages I received.

Expect to see more videos on the Windows 7 features, there actually appears to be quite a few, and that's just at a quick glance.

Windows 7 setup doesn't recognize my hard drive :( why is that?

Is this a new PC? My guess is that you will need the raid controller drivers for your system.

And, to install 7, you need at least 1GB of RAM.

If you have an upgrade copy of Win7 you should only have to put the CD in the computer again when the installer prompts you. If you purchased a full Win7 copy, then you would'nt.
