AFAIK, when I installed Vista into my MacBook, I'm required to install official 3rd-party drivers from Apple through BootCamp, not sure about Windows 7 though. blush.gif

Like that ah? But still OK can get official drivers from Apple.

Can't you use normal Windows drivers that's included with Windows7? I thought Mac hardwares are generic one, not custom one such as from the IBM era... hmm.gif

yea, most of the component are generic. But there are some, such as iSight, keyboard and trackpad. Those need apple drivers in order to work.

Everything works for the bootcamp drivers except the audio. The audio i have to dl the latest from realtek cool.gif *Sadly, macdrive can't be install, cacat 1.

Sure, just like 256mb wasn't enough for Windows XP when it comes out. An OS is released to take advantages of current hardwares capabilities, but sadly, dumb-tards didn't want to accept it and still living in the past rolleyes.gif

The problem is most of us wouldn't want to fork buying some next-generation hardware. It takes time to convince people , hopefully Windows 7 can still maintain as the same hardware requirement as Vista. Well , lets see how the sales would be for Windows 7. Hopefully it isn't launched in wrong time

After all, current hardware prices are dropping like balls, and as far of now, Windows7 really is an improvements to Windows Vista (put aside the bugs and it's beta status). Hoping to deploy in on work and see how things will go on.

Not only that, they'll be like Vista is hogging all of my memory oh noes when they have like 4GB RAM and it doesn't lag their usage even when they game... = =

Afterall, it's kind of sad for me too if I game confirm lag one 2GB Ram =\ But to me Vista is stable lol. Besides the backwards compatibility issue for drivers.

Not enough, it need at least 6GB of free spaces, unless you trim your Windows7 installation disk with vLite.
