Something you may not know about the current Windows 7 Release Candidate: Its good until March 2010. At that time, it will start giving you warning signs and forcing you to reboot every couple of hours. In April, it will revert to an unlicensed copy of Windows.
They are saying that Windows 7 will go on sale in 4Q 2009 so that gives you plenty of time to save up for a copy! 73 Neal Campbell Abroham Neal Software Programming Services for Windows, OS X and Linux www.abrohamnealsoftware.com (540) 242 0911 On Sat, May 9, 2009 at 10:10 AM, Jim KJ7S <k...@etv.net> wrote: > Hi All: FWIW, I did get the Flex firewire driver and PSDR running on the > Quad Core here finally. > A few Notes: Thanks a LOT to Paul who did the "to the letter" of what > to do to set the Legacy Driver > in Win7.
