CombatMedic posted:Speaking of video drivers, for two days in a row, I've rebooted and found that I am in non-Aero mode because my display doesn't support Aero. I have a 9600M with the newest driver, and it worked just fine 2 days ago. I'm gonna have to do a clean install if this keeps up. I'm not gonna do a system restore everyday. I've just started experiencing this too with my 9600GT X2 and dual monitors. Everything was fine for weeks, but now when I reboot one monitor will work with Aero, the other will be black but the cursor will show up. Then I'll loose Aero. Sometimes it Aero will come back with both monitors working, sometimes it stays dead with one monitor. Going to try reinstalling the drivers tonight, but it's pretty annoying.

So is there any documentation that Windows 7 RC will work for the Upgrade version? Other than a questionable mention in a video on the windows team blog site, I can't find any reference to it. I built a new machine a few months ago and have been running the beta/rc since waiting for W7 to come out, so I don't have any other upgradable OS's lying around to use. I'd love to take advantage of the pre-order.
