The problem with Windows 7 at this current moment is this :

Windows XP    -> you download drivers from the net and install them.
Windows Vista -> You download your drivers mostly from the net and install them, you can update them through windows update.
Windows 7      -> Which ever drivers are not installed with setup, you can run windows update and it detects all hardware and installs the drivers for you.


I have loaded windows 7 onto 9 different PC's so far and every single one worked this way. I would install windows, there would be a whole bunch of hardware not installed, i would search the net and not find any drivers, i would run windows update and boom, it picks up the hardware and installs the drivers....

Thus, the only option i see at this point in time to make driver packs for windows 7 is for users to use driver magician or something and post their ripped drivers and put those into driver packs.

it is still to early to get drivers from vendors for windows 7, with the exception of nvidia and ati ofcourse. once windows 7 is released, it is another ball game smile

none the less.

No matter what you do, or how hard you try, or whatever excuse you come up with, or how much you hate it, anyway you look at it, VISTA IS HERE NOW, there is nothing you can do to stop it from taking over the market or making it's place in the world, XP IS ON IT'S WAY OUT, and there is nothing you can do to stop it either, by the end of this year vista will be the main operating system in use by the general public, especialy when vista sp1 is launched, those that have not bought are waiting for the compatibility and bug fix patch IE sp1. by the end of the year you will have lost 80% of your users here on this board because only a handfull will be living in the past .....

besides, i don't understand the harm in making a framework for vista ? , is it laziness or lack of the operating system knowledge ? . does it not make sense to make a framework so long so that the users like me can start working on driverpacks ?

and please if you give objections then give some valid arguements, not just "vista sucks" bla bla bla crap.

i really think it is time that someone gives vista driver packs some attention. more and more people use it everyday, infact all of my friends except one is using vista. most of them told me i am wasting my time when i first got it, now all the idiots are using it, lol.

my point is that the change seems like it is happening slowly, but one day you gonna open your eyes and realise that xp population seemed to suddenly jumped from 80% to 5% and vista jumped from 20% to 95% and then you will end up rushing to get a vista driverpack out ?

Xp is old news now, it is being used less and less everyday, in 2009 ( which is just around the corner ) windows vienna will be out, xp will be even more usseless then, so in my opinnion, waisting time making driverpacks for an operating system that is seriously VERY FAST on it's way out does not make sense ....

maybe it is time to start working on a vista framework ? i would be happy to help with driver collections and anything else ....

Is there any chance that you guys will be making vista driver packs ? and if it is in the works can you give an estimated eta date ?
