•Odd behavior tonight.  I loaded some movie files from my Sony.  Adobe premiere pro didn’t see them so I loaded adobe elements 2.0.  It didn’t see them.

•OK it has to be a windows 7 thing with mo 2003 because I received both of these at the same time watching THE DESKTOP AND THE LAPTOP (LAPTOP HAS WINDOWS 7) .  THE DESKTOP, xp pro, WAS FINE. THE LAPTOP RECEIVED GARBAGE.  But I am wondering why Bella can send me the same thing and it was OK on Laptop when yours wasn't.  So it is not you.

•windows 7 won't let total recorder record sounds heard from speaker only.  This is useful when trying to record screen shots with internal sound from a website.

It’s a sugar coated version of XP that conflicts with my video editing programs.  Microsoft has made it harder to move files with no “move” feature.  They have taken away the windows picture viewer and gif images don’t work without extra software.  
The switch to box wouldn't let me switch mto moizilla on a download for an upgrade to snagit.

Installing windows 7 signature edition on 32 bit and 64 bit.  I had to wipe the 32 bit because 7 wouldn’t recognize windows 7 RC.  Install of fresh 7 took About 40 minutes.  From Vista 64 bit 7 copied and saved programs and data of @ 400gb on my lt and @ 80 programs in @ five hours!  That was nice!

Wipe 7 32 bit because of ati problem. Starting re install
To ready desktop:

A wipe did not fix the ati glitch on a reinstall.

Windows 7 changed back to windows 7 basic color scheme and the tuner came back on.  I had just plugged the tuner into Laptop 2 64bit  vista  and ati 650 worked.  Then all of a sudden the tuner started working again on my 7 lt. Weird coincidence.

Uninistalling Roxio and using a windows basic or Aero theme in Display settings then re-installing the 650 program over the existing install  made the 650 work for me again.  I dare not mess with Windows TV tuner!
For those with simple need that don’t need a TV tuner I sugest Windows 7 Ultimate.  For those willing to troubleshoot your ATI tuner I also suggest Windows 7 Ultimate!

A windows 7 update today caused the ati not to work again.  It plays but is slow.
10/17/2009 5:16:59 AM
I had to reverrify my activation key on the 32 bit.
I can only network 2 machines that are both on 7.
10/17/2009 10:12:32 PM
A clean uninstall of the 650 then re-install AFTER re-installing roxio fixed it so far.It’s working with roxio now. Roxio’s TV tuner and the ati tuner are working. If you put in ati first before Roxio then Roxio won’t let you install ati.   
Hp 7350 photo printer won’t work with hp laptop 64bit and 7 desktop 32bit.  No compatible drivers I have found so far have helped.
I can’t figure out how to sort icons in Quick launch with 7.
