7 ways Windows 7 helps you finish your work faster

1. Windows XP Mode

If you’ve ever been afraid of losing all that is good about Windows XP, you’re not alone. That’s why with Windows 7 Professional or Ultimate, you can download Windows XP Mode. With Windows XP Mode you can run many Windows XP productivity applications on your Windows 7-based computer. It’s a great way of making old new. Watch the videos here.

2. Device compatibility

I don’t have the time to tinker around figuring out how to make my devices talk to each other. Fortunately, with Windows 7, my devices work together without a lot of fuss. My phone, printer, and other PCs on my network connect and synch easily so I don’t get stuck spending a lot of time adjusting settings and troubleshooting connections.

If you’re not sure about compatibility, you can visit the Windows Compatibility Center to learn if your devices meet the criteria.

3. Location-aware printing

My laptop makes me king of the road, until I want to print something: then I feel like a pawn on the highway. I think that’s why they designed Windows 7 with simplified printer settings. My Windows 7 laptop offers the ability to automatically switch the default printer when I move from one network to another—so my computer automatically prints to my home printer when I’m at home, and my work printer when I’m at work. This feature, called location-aware printing, is only available in Windows 7 Professional and Ultimate. See it in action.

Windows 7 Tutorial Part 3 – Installing Windows 7 on a Fresh Computer 1

The following steps will walk you through the process of installing Windows 7 on a fresh computer.
Installing Windows 7 is straightforward—if you’re doing a clean install, simply boot up your computer with the Windows 7 installation DVD inside the DVD drive and instruct your computer to boot from the DVD (you may need to press a key, such as F11 or F12, while the computer is starting to enter the boot selection screen). If you’re upgrading, simply boot into Windows Vista, insert the disc, and run the installer (if you are using Windows XP, see the previous post “Upgrading from Windows XP to Windows 7”).
When the installer has booted up, you will be greeted with the screen shown in Figure 1-2 (the upgrade screen is slightly different; you will have an option to check the compatibility of your system or start the installation). You will be asked to select the language to install, the time and currency format, and your keyboard type.

Figure 1-2. Installing Windows 7: the first step

With the selections made, you can now install Windows 7 by clicking the “Install now”
button (see Figure 1-3).

 

You will be asked to accept the license agreement. (If you are upgrading, you’ll first have the option to go online to get any updates to the installer first.) Check the licensing checkbox and continue.

On the next screen, you have a choice between upgrading your existing Windows or installing a fresh copy of Windows. If you are using Windows XP or earlier, the first option will not work for you—select the Custom (advanced) option (see Figure 1-4).

You can upgrade from Windows Vista only if you run the installer from within Windows Vista. If you do a fresh boot using the Windows 7 installation disc, you will not be able to upgrade (you will be asked to rerun the installation from within Windows.
