Any issues with Windows 7? email this discussion to a friend?

I'm a technical support representative for an Internet Service Provider and of course with the newly Operating system, Windows 7. A lot of customers are getting fun of it and are so quick to upgrade their vista or xp to windows 7. And fter installing it? My phone would ring and they would say " I cannot connect to the Internet!". Of course it is my job to help them but after making sure that the line is okay, I gotta ask the operating system and it's windows 7. I would ask them when was the last time they were able to connect, well it was after upgrading to 7!..Then they would blame us for everything. Hey what's happening? Guys, I have windows vista and I am not really that familiar with it. Can you give me some issues that you know regarding 7? I know it is officially released but I think it seems to be still on a beta version..

Hello breinchem=) wow with that job and an extra cash from here...your good!=)
i am using windows 7 for almost a year now and i have no problem with any of my internet connections=) i think one problem is that after installing Windows 7 they sometimes forget to install their network adapters drivers...

or for some rare occasions, Wrong Overclocking would make there internet connection not to function properly.. yeah i have encountered this problem myself and fixed their computer's Internet connection..=)

Tough job. I understand you are tech support for ISP and not for the OS Windows 7.
The above post is right. Remind them to install their drivers for network card if they haven't done so. If that is not the prob, I don't know either haha I haven't used Windows 7.

I'm used to having XP, a neighbor asked me to set up their internet connection for Vista. I was lost and I can't do it. Because somebody else set up all those drivers and I just can't understand when I will begin because the neighbor is a novice user. That's why they are asking help.

Well, I am no expert so I can't do it either.

Retail version is out already. But some people are still using the beta version of it. Maybe those having problems trying to connect to the internet are beta users. I installed windows 7 and everything I need on my computer including of course internet connection and it was so easy. Much easier than xp and vista. lol

Hi, I think you're right. Because whenever I would ask them when they have install it and they said that was months ago..thanks for that idea.:)


myLot reputation of 86/100. shadow41 (909)   ranked 293 out of 5,752 in computer  2 months ago

Well I hope I'm really right. lol I installed retail version of windows 7 and everything went smoothly. It didn't even bother to ask me to install my mother board drivers and also my network drivers. I mean I just installed windows 7 and it's done. I just configure my internet connection myself and it was so easy. The instructions are very easy to follow. It's totally a user friendly OS. Have a nice day. happy

Tell people to install/update their drivers. I didn't install any drivers whatsoever and internet works like a charm. It's absolutely fantastic.

I got a new computer which had Windows 7 installed and I have to say I love Windows 7, it is a whole new league compared to Vista which was an utter failure. Windows 7 is pretty much a super refined Vista that actually has functionality and doesn't have the numerous problems that Vista had. It definitely is a step in the right direction for Microsoft and for the people who are using XP, try Windows 7 because you are missing out. I've had no problems with it so far so I don't know why they would have so much trouble with it. I find Windows 7 really easy to set internet up with.
