oystercatcher Posted July 7, 2009 Posted July 7, 2009 I am coming from winxp (skipped vista). In xp I could rearrangethe layout of programs from start button -> all programs bygoing to \Documents and Settings\Start Menu\Programs andmoving things around there. I would have thought \Users butit doesn't seem to be there.I have my display settings at 1280 x 1024 and the icons arerather large is there a setting to change the default desktop icon size?Oh and the MB sound card (intel something) and the SB live don't workI am thinking of going with the turtle beach montegro and wonder ifanyone can confirm if win7 has drivers for it. Otherwise any pcicards that definitely work with win7?thanks

D_block Posted July 8, 2009 Posted July 8, 2009 jus as with vista for the icons size Hold ctrl + mouse wheel to adjust the programs are normally in alphabetical order, what more can you eally want than that
John305 Posted July 8, 2009 Posted July 8, 2009 Win 7 auto installed my sound blaster 5.1 live gamer card its old, and also the audigy 4 pro. There is no support for the joystick port so you will always see a flag in device manger, but its only for that joystick port thats on the older sound cards so it can be ignored. They expect you to use usb joystick.
