    Chkdsk Bug Anything But a Showstopper

    anyweb
    By anyweb,
    The Chris123NT blog thought it had found a critical bug in Windows 7's chkdsk utility. Run the tool with the /r switch (locate and repair bad sectors), and you should see memory usage for chkdsk eat up all your memory, or it crashes your machine with a blue screen of death. The original report only called it "critical", but people like Randall Kennedy (who else) labelled it as a "showstopper". As it turns out, this was all way overblown.   First of all, this bug will not be seen when running c

The company's top salesman also sympathized with those who passed

    Windows 7, Server 2008 R2 Complete, Hit RTM

    anyweb
    By anyweb,
    It's been a three year long ride. Windows Vista was released January 2007, and its reception by the press was very negative, which made sure public perception was very negative as well. Sales were slow, people wanted Windows XP, and businesses didn't care about Vista either. Microsoft needed something that would make the world forget about Vista, and it needed it fast. The journey is over: Windows 7 has gone RTM.   via > http://www.osnews.com/story/21879/Windows_...omplete_Hit_RTM   video
