Windows 7, what works, and what doesn't.

If you touch your software enough does it become hardware?

Windows 7, what works, and what doesn't.

Post by Dr. kitteny berk »

Figured this might be useful to someone

Works:
AnyDVD
CCCP codec pack (media player classic works fine, perfect mkv playback)
Auzentech xfi prelude drivers etc.
Nod32
L4D
UT3
WoW
xfire
Skype 4 beta
Coretemp
CPU-Z
Everest
HijackThis
7zip
Quickpar
Orthos
Process Explorer
OCCT
Project Torque
Photoshop CS2
Fraps
Trillian
Thunderbird
Firefox

Doesn't work:
CoD4 - Punkbuster FAIL
BEEF - Punkbuster FAIL
XBCD drivers, even less functional than Fista x64
Furmark (ATI driver issue with OGL?)
Daemon tools
Speedfan

Oddities:
Sidebar/gadgets - Works but needs UAC enabled
Photoshop, CoD4 and BEEF all took ages to install for me, no idea why.

I've had no problem with PunkBuster. I'm using PBSetup.
Actually, I'll rephrase that- I've not been kicked from a server yet, and I get the usual PB messages about non-standard names. I guess we'll find out tonight.
edit: ah, no. something about APIs.

World of Goo needed to be in windowed mode or it'd get stuck in resolution-swapping hell.

Does flash bork Opera 10 too?
