Thanks everyone i was looking for opinions and suggestions and most of you were very helpful I'd like to single out roy and mr. douglas as being exceptionaly helpful. Oh and Skybird I did not need the smart remark, but I appreciate the sarcasm. It is extremely helpful on a community board to have someone get their little digs in when a person is sincerely asking for help. Thank you so much for that useful tidbit. I was asking simply because I was going from an 5 year old XP based laptop to the much newer windows 7 system and I wished to gather useful opinions from folks that were using the new windows 7 based systems. I wanted to learn from others experience. I have gotten things all straightened out now and it is working well. Hoster does seem to have a glitch that trew me for a loop when it tested the new cd rom drive and said it was fine when in fact it was not fine. I purchased a drive from MTU and viola, everything suddenly worked as it should. once again thanks to all of you folks that gave info. I do sincerely appreciate it and hope to return the favor when ever I can be of help

I have no idea what you are referring to. I re-read everything I wrote & thought I was being very nice & trying to be as helpful as I could be and give you as much detail as possible. This was in response to your other posts (not just this one) when you were having so much trouble. Sorry you took it the wrong way, but glad you got everything working.

Since this has been solved for the OP I am going to close the thread.
