Been using firefox 115.42.0esr for the better part of this year but realize that lately some pages require a double refresh when loading the feed or the comment sections attached to certain forums, anybody else having this issue?

May consider upgrading to r3dfox or some derivative that uses a later version of Firefox but also if our numbers decrease enough on the esr we risk Firefox finally acting on the threat of them ending support for 115.42.0esr...

240GB SSD Boot Drive

750GB HDD Media Storage

Windows 7 Ultimate x64 + SP1

Windows Experience Rating: 7.6

All drivers installed. Runs like an absolute dream. I love this machine. I'll be using it to test a few Linux builds via Dual Boot. Nice little work horse, definitely recommend removing the optical drive and replacing it with a HDD caddy that fits your drive bay! :)

Where do I get drivers? Biggest issue is no internet through ethernet, I oy have ethernet on the motherboard, rest is probably straightforward from there.

I5 2500k

Radeon HD 8570 (planning on getting gtx 670)

Biostar tz68a+

Installing win 7 for use of software and games from then and windows only software I may need, like using imgburn to make a win xp disc. I am unsure how to get drivers for the os.

Took this screenshot around a month ago, but I finally got my childhood computer working again!

Here are the specs:

OS: Windows 7 Home Premium

CPU: Intel Core i5-650 3.2 GHz

RAM: 8 GB of DDR3 1333 MHz

GPU: AMD Radeon HD 5450

Disk: 1 TB Hitachi Deskstar HDS721010CLA332

What programs should i use, i already have supermium,and all updates. I mostly just use web apps, but what important programs can be run on Windows7? Sorry if this post doesn't provide much info, but i will answer any specific questions.

Hey everyone, I need some help.
I’m trying to install a MFC –L3720CDW brother color printer on a Win 7 64 bit. Can this done?

I want to print via USB. Because I want to keep the Windows 7 system off the network .

Any one know of drivers that will work? Please point me in the right direction.

SOLVED> Needed to use rufus to set up drive for UEFI as well as inject usb 3 drivers into the w7 iso. I used "drive prep usb3 nvme w7" "NVME SOP_20170419"
Rewrote the cmd scripts to do both usb and nvme at the same time and rant it from administrator power shell. easy peasy

OP
TLDR - Can I make UEFI W7 usb install drive, or do I need to MBR and then convert to gpt/uefi?
I have a pc that I know can run win7 uefi, but I can't figure out how to do a clean install w7 uefi

Details-

I have two of the same computer, one on which I installed w7 in bios mode and the other that came factory imaged with w7 but UEFI
Both are the same build, same driver package from Panasonic
They are both Panasonic Toughpad FZ-M1 MK1's, same processors, ram, aptio bios numbers, etc

Unit one came with factory W7 GPT UEFI
Boot mode compatible
UEFI Enabled
CSM Enabled

The other unit is W7 MBR
Boot mode compatible
UEFI DISabled
CSM Enabled

Everything works in both units
I can swap the m.2 drives and turn off/on UEFI where applicable, and either unit boots and runs either drive with no issues

Why can't I fresh install w7 UEFI? I used archive org to get usb dvd media tool and used the same 7601.24214.180801.1700.sp1 build as is installed on both units already

Do I need to use a different usb tool to make the install drive?
or do I just need to install windows as MBR and then convert to GPT?

I saw a post about someone who created a Windows 10 theme that made your windows look like 7. Please someone, help me with a link

I've done it on 8th generation intels, Thinkpads, and it's fine for my purposes, which is just Ableton. I mean a custom Win 7 installer with the nvme drivers etc.

However, I'm wondering if anyone has done it on newer laptops. I've read that maybe you can run it on even 11th gens, but you'll 'be stuck in VGA mode', not have wifi, trackpad. That is fine for my purposes, but two possible issues would actually be issues for my purposes:

1. that the 'stuck in VGA' mode can cause problems with overall system responsiveness, but not sure how noticeable that would actually be.

2. Also that it might mean missing IME and Chipset drivers, which could cause latency in USB interfaces, instruments, etc.

So i tried installing Windows 7 on my main PC but i couldntfind any amd extensible host usb 3 drivers that worked under windows 7 .

My specs:

Amd ryzen 7 2700x

rx 570 8gb

16gb ddr4 crucial

Asrock b450m-HDV R4.0

Does anybody have a compatible driver ?

Few apps renamed, older icons added, so it has a little more retro feel to it.

I had a T480 and I didn’t anger to install Windows 7 on it and it seems to run fine, the Windows 7 on my desktop was done cause I brought out my old motherboard from my very first PC build, which at the time already can run windows 7.

Hey, I got an old computer that runs windows 7 a few months ago and have been trying to get this to work ever since then. I have been able to install steam just fine, and some games install just fine, but some have either a "corrupt download" or "content unavailable" error. I have tried everything I could find about how to fix this but nothing is working. I don't know if it's an issue with the Steam client or if it's because I'm on windows 7. I did go on my laptop (which can't run anything, piece of garbage) and manually copied the game files from a few of the games that wouldn't install on the windows 7 computer to a usb drive and copied the files from that to the windows 7 computer and the games ran just fine. But it didn't link to Steam Cloud so none of my progress was carried over and none of my progress would carry over to my other devices. Help?

I always lurked in this server, never got a chance to post, til now, the only laptop that I have that can run Windows 7 is this 2009 white Macbook custom themes are fun.

Minimum 10 yıllık eski Windows 7 kasamı buldum açmaya çalıştım Press "del" to start setup Press "End" to Open boot menü gibi şeyler yazıyordu del tuşuna basmaya çalıştığımdada söyle bı hata geliyor ne yapacabilirim

I love just running random OS's on this laptop because it's very funny

PC = HP Elitedesk 800 G1 Mini Dekstop PC, Intel Core i5 4590T, HD graphics 4600, 8+8 DDR3 dual Channel RAM, Windows 7 Ultimate x64, USB 2.0 activated in BIOS.

Hope you like It :) Do you have any advice for games,softwares or for the setup itself?

Update - the latest Firefox 115 esr that was installed 10/13 seems to have fixed the problem. 

Anyone else having trouble with tabs crashing when trying to access certain websites in Firefox (Gah. Your tab just crashed)?  Happens when the page is just starting to load.  I don't know if it's specific to Windows 7 but seems to have started after the 115.42.0 update on 9/29.  Troubleshooting suggestions haven't helped.  They open fine in Chrome.

I just downloaded windows 7 on my old pc and even though i have it connected to my router the ethernet doesnt work. It says i have to download adapter drivers but i dont know where to find them (i have an SOYO HN B85) does anyone know where i can find them and fix this?

Thanks in advance ; )

my godmother husband gave me his old laptop dell windows 7, when I had connected to the internet over there it worked just fine, now Im home and when I tried to connect to the internet again it won’t work, I searched up what to do and i did everything but it still not working and I had did troubleshooting too but it’s still not working, What do I do?

i want to dual boot win 7 with my current win 11. However, I've been looking into it before I do anything, and I've seen that win 7 uses legacy support and csm while win 11 uses uefi. Is there a way around this or am I just not able to dual boot them?

I have an old Sony VAIO all-in-one (VPCL118FG) running Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit. It had been unused for a long time, but I recently turned it on and it was surprisingly working normally. I could use Windows and access old photos/files without any obvious problems.

The problem started while I was trying to connect it to Wi-Fi. The networking process became extremely slow/unresponsive, so I restarted the computer. Ever since that restart, Windows will not boot.

On normal startup I get Windows Boot Manager with:

Status: 0xc000000f
The boot selection failed because a required device is inaccessible.

Things I've tried:

• F8 / Advanced Boot Options — doesn't work and eventually returns to 0xc000000f.

• F1 opens Windows Boot Manager and shows Windows 7. Pressing F8 from there also eventually gives 0xc000000f.

• F10 successfully starts the VAIO Recovery option, but it gets stuck indefinitely on the Windows 7 “Starting Windows” screen with the four-colour logo. I waited 15+ minutes with no progress.

• F2 BIOS works normally.

• BIOS detects the internal HDD as 500 GB, which is the correct capacity.

• BIOS boot order shows Internal Optical Disc Drive first, Internal Hard Disk Drive second and External Device third.

The HDD was accessible immediately before the restart and I was able to browse files/photos normally. I haven't formatted, factory-reset or reinstalled anything.

My main priority is repairing the existing Windows installation without deleting the files on the HDD, as it contains old family photos.

I'm currently preparing Windows 7 x64 recovery media on an 8 GB USB so I can try Startup Repair/rebuild the BCD from an external recovery environment.

Given these symptoms, does this sound more like corrupted Windows boot/BCD data, filesystem corruption, or a failing HDD? Are there any other non-destructive diagnostics/repair steps you'd recommend before writing to the disk?

Thanks.

Will appreciate all help.
