System minimum requirments windows 7

Hello everyone, I was wondering what are the minimum system requirements for windows 7

Thank you

all we have at the moment are applications for the rc:
from: http://www.microsoft.com/windows/windows-7/faq.aspx

These are the Microsoft minimum hardware recommendations for systems that will run the RC. These recommendations are specific to this release and are subject to change.

System requirements for Windows 7 RC:
1 GHz or faster 32-bit (x 86) or 64-bit (x 64) processor
1 GB of RAM (32-bit) / 2 GB RAM (64-bit)
16 GB of disk space available (32-bit) / 20 GB (64-bit)
GPU DirectX 9 with WDDM 1.0 or higher driver

Note: Some Windows 7 features such as the ability to watch and record live TV or navigation through the use of "touch" may require advanced or additional hardware.

HTH.

    Just to start with this one:

    I also have Windows for Mac.

    I assume you mean that you run Windows in a virtual machine such as Parallels? If so, the machine virtual peut must be updated.

    When you install Snow Leopard, make sure to choose the option to do a custom install, so you can select the check box for Rosetta, or it will not install and PowerPC applications will not run. Not a huge deal if you miss. The first time you try to run a PPC application if Rosetta has not been installed, OS X offers to download and install it for you.

    Firefox works under Snow Leopard, which is the oldest version of OS X Mozilla always supports. Safari installed with SL will remain grossly outdated and should not be used.

    Nothing will happen to your documents, although I can't say with certainty that all the apps from third party that allows you to open will not be updated. They can. They cannot. For example, Office 2004 will run as long as Rosetta is installed.

  • Laptop HP 17 p100: how the usb flash drive big that I have to create a system of 10 Windows Recovery?

    How the big usb flash drive do I need to create a system of 10 Windows Recovery?

    Yes

    Hello;

    Let me welcome you on the HP forums!

    There is really no way accurately guess in advance, with one of the reasons being that the options are available when you do this.  An option creates a recovery drive minimum with what is needed to repair the operating system.  Another option creates an image that is able to completely restore the operating system and its partition.  Thus, the size can vary from 4 GB to the size of the partition to the OS.

    Myself, I found as build-in recovery to be unreliable, especially those of Ms.  So instead, I use a third-party imaging/restoration solution known as Macrium Reflect.

    What I recommend is the following:
    (1) download and install Macrium reflect (MR)
    (2) run M. and choose the option: "Create an image of the partition (s) required to backup and restore Windows" to write a full backup to an external drive or USB key
    (3) use the option to create a CD or a USB startup key

    My experience is that SIR, when you use the option of Compression high, typically allows to compress the image file recorded at about 50% of the space USED in the OS partition.  This means that if you have a 40GB and 80GB OS partition is used, MR must only about 20 GB to store the image file.

    I use all the time and it usually takes less than 10 minutes to make the backup of the image and at the same time or less do a restore.  In addition, MR has the ability to add a recovery Boot Menu entry.  This then allows you to boot into Windows re, and then you can use it to do a restore - when you cannot start Windows!

    NOW, you have the means to restore a full system that works for the external hard drive or USB key in a few minutes.

    Good luck

  • IM using XP and it keeps running a shutdown of the system initiated by authority NT\SYSTEM w/status code 1073741482 & system process ' C:WINDOWS\system32\services.exe. How can I stop the closure?

    I get the following message: closing system, the system stops. Please save all work in progress and log off. All wukk unsaved changes are lost. This shutdown was initiated by authority NT\SYSTEM. The system process ' C: Windows\system 32\services.exe ended unexpectedly with status 1073741482 code. The system will now stop diwn and restart.

    I tried the boot, and all the days that something did not work if today I'm the switch back to the normal startup. I tried to run a scan, but it does not have the "clean boot" State... it would also not automatic updates... so here Let's go!

    I had the same problem, tried the clean boot, like Wells, and it has not fixed the problem.  Please try this:
    There are several steps to follow.
    The first is a suggestion from one of the blogs with a slight variation.

    First step:
    Enter safe mode.  (Put in the computer market, press F8 several times until the window offering the Safe Mode option appears.  Use your top and arrows to select Safe mode, and then click it.)

    Since the Office Safe Mode:
    1. right click on 'My Computer' and select 'Properties': my computer-> properties. This opens the "System Properties" dialog box

    2. Select the "Advanced" tab

    3. under "Startup and recovery", click on the button "settings".

    4. at the bottom, in the section "System failure", see what boxes are checked. Windows XP checks them all by default.

    5. click on "Automactically restart." This is probably your cause if you get automactic closures. As an alternative to optimise this method, you can, at your own discretion, also do the following:

    i. uncheck "write an event to the system log.
    II. check 'Send an administrative alert' (which should do more to view the sudden error rather than stop).
    III. uncheck "Automactically restart."
    IV. in the combo box of the section 'Write debugging information', choose '(none) '. Note that this will disable the rest under "information write Debuggin".

    6. your finished, then click 'Ok' to close the dialog of void and then 'Ok' again in the "System Properties" dialog box

    That should do it. Some upgrade suggestions are the best propally but I think these security only handle issues related to other areas if they worth downloads of 2 to 5 hours of 56 k modem for added security. However, I find that some updates are not even for my type of installation (due to unused configuration detection?) or I do not use the services.

    For more information on Tweaking, I suggest to look at "http://www.tweakxp.com" If you are a user of Windows XP.

    Good luck.

    Step 2:
    Also in safe mode
    .

    Some of these steps have been found on the microsoft Web site.  However, the following text is a little different and should translate into success.  It did for me.
    1) enter the Configuration of the utility system.  You can do this by done safe mode right click on Start, by choosing Search, then typing in msconfig and searching the c: drive.  Once the search is complete, click on one of the icons of msconfig.  This will bring up The System Configuration utility.
    (2) click on the tab general select Selective startup.
    (3) click to uncheck the Process SYSTEM. INI file.
    (4) click to uncheck the process to WIN. INI file.
    (5) click to disable Load Startup items.  Make sure that The Load System Services and use Original of INITIALIZATION. INI are checked.
    6) click on the Services tab.
    (7) click to select the hide all Microsoft Services check box.
    8) click disable all, and then click OK.
    (9) computer.

    Step 3: log in to Windows.

    (1) when you receive the following message is displayed, click Select, check box don't show this message or launch the system to Windows Startup Configuration utility , and then click ok.

    If this solves the problem, go to step 4.  If it is not the case, then you will need support from a professional.

    Step 4: find the culprit.

    1) enter in the System Configuration utility (SCU for future reference.)
    2) click on the Startup tab.  (NOTE: If you find "audm" within the list of starting points, it is most likely the culprit.) It was for me. If it is, go to If not, go to 3).
    (3) the top of the list in the start menu, check AN item, then restart the computer. Make a note of each element that starts without failure.
    Repeat this step until you get the window to "Shut down NT Authority... ».  This will reveal that the start point is the origin of the problem.  Once found, go to 4).
    (4) get in safe mode / SCU / Startup / untick the culprit.
    (5) restart Windows.  If this solves the problem, you are almost finished.  If this isn't the case, you will need the services of a professional.

    Step 5: remove the culprit and the reactivation of the process.
    1) go to Start / Search / and look for the item that caused the problem.  (When I did a search for audm - 2 released files.)
    (2) delete all files with the name of the offender and empty your trash.
    3) enter the Configuration of the system - (start/run/msconfig).
    (4) on the general tab, re-enable the Process SYSTEM.ini, WIN.ini processand Load Startup items.
    (5) restart the computer.   The problem should be solved.
     
    Basic suggestions:
    (1) ALWAYS keep a firewall- and choose the option "Open at Startup.  (That's how I think that was my problem - by not having is not the Firewall opens at the beginning).
    (2) perform a virus Scan is every DAY.
    (3) keep all windows programs and drivers updated - every DAY.
    (4) keep all antivirus programs and firewalls updated - every DAY.

    Good luck

  • is it possible to run both systems, such as windows xp & windows 8 on a pc

    is it possible to run both systems, such as windows xp and windows 8 on a pc at the same time

    Hi Susan,.

    Actually run two at the same time?  N ° having two installed so that you can choose which you want to run?  Yes (as long as your computer can accommodate two operating systems and has appropriate and such pilots and you will understand the compatibility requirements and other rules for software application).

    How to do this depends on which two average you and your hardware (you could partition the disk to dual-boot, use readers separate for dual boot or create a similar to a dual-boot configuration, if the two you choose cannot work together in a normal dual-boot or use a Virtual Machine installed on an operating system to install and run the other OS and so on).  Certain combinations will be much easier than others.

    So the answer is it is theoretically possible to have two (or three or more) installed, but not running at the same time - but I guess it could be argued that a Virtual Machine means in fact the two BONES are technically running - but that's just the way it seems to me since you can use only one at a time) , but may not work in your specific situation depending on your computer hardware and bios, the software you use, which specifies the operating systems you want to be able to access separately and so on.  To do this, we need information much more to offer help.

    I hope this helps.

    Good luck!

  • Something in my system turns off Windows Defender.

    Something in my system turns off Windows Defender once from time to time, and I have to keep back on.

    I am running Windows XP and security programs I use are Microsoft Security Essentials, Microsoft Malicious Software Removal Tool,
    Spybot Search and Destroy and Ad-Aware from Lavasoft.
    I normally have all running at the same time, and with Spybot SD have also resident 'SD Helper' and 'Tea Timer"active.

    Any ideas what could cause this problem?

    Hello

    As you use Microsoft Security Essentials, the reason for this is that MSE has its own version of the Defender as part of its program.

    Using both programs at the same time can cause system conflicts, etc.

    Read this information about it:

    "Windows Defender and Microsoft Security Essentials on Windows 7, Windows Vista and Windows XP.

    Q: I have to manually disable or uninstall Windows Defender, if I use Microsoft Security Essentials?
    If Microsoft Security Essentials does not automatically uninstall Windows Defender on XP, you must manually uninstall Windows Defender through Control Panel of configuration/Add / Remove programs.

    I would like to go back to xp opperating system of my windows 7

    The short answer is that you need to do an installation of Windows XP by booting from the XP CD and do a complete, 'new' install XP ofd. You must then install all the applications you want to use with it and all your user files (documents, photos, videos, music, & c).

    It is a good guide to clean XP install. There are others.

    3. Launch XP 7 on a virtual machine. Usable by all using Sun Virtual Vox or VMware or similar.

    Hello

    Just in case there are persistent pieces of malware here is the method of complete elimination.
    .exe question difficulty in the next message.

    Try Mode safe mode with networking - repeatedly, press F8 that you start.

    The best two methods allow scanners to run and/or AV.exe out of the way or removing.

    1.
    CTRL SHIFT ESC - task manager OR right click on the taskbar - task manager

    Process tab - complete the process on AV. EXE and continue with the uninstall Guide.

    If necessary use start - computer or Windows Explorer to navigate to

    C:\Program Malwarebytes Anti - Malware\mbam.exe or where it is installed - if
    necessary right click on the shortcut of Malwarebytes - Properties - tab - target line to see where it
    is installed.

    Right-click on it and rename it to ZZMbam.COM (or something different than now) and
    Double-click it, and then run it like this. You can rename it back later. Do the same with
    other programs according to the needs. Use this method to others as needed - NOT assume all
    a program deletes all or that it is no other malicious software.

    ---------------------------------------------------

    2.
    Another method is to use them:

    Use Process Explorer to "Suspend" the process will not stop

    Then use AutoRuns to delete the malicious program startup items.

    Now use UnLocker to delete the files in the malware.

    You may need to do a file at a time.

    Some of the answers are a bit misleading.  You will need an e-mail account,
