Post by: electronictokwa on December 22, 2011, 09:33:00 AM: Anu make and model ng laptop mo sir? Legit ba Windows 7 license mo? Check mo rin muna kung complete ang XP drivers para dyan. If legit ang license ng Windows 7 mo at gusto mo apply sa Windows XP (license must be legit too), check mo to:

Pag di legit, clean install mo lang yung XP. Or puede mo rin dual boot nalang :-D

Bakit mo nga ba downgrade to XP? Kasi kung wala naman need to downgrade eh wag na lang.

If natrojan ka sa 7, mas vulnerable ang XP. Mag 7 ka padin if mag pawipe ka ng harddrive

Kung malaki ang HDD mo puede ka naman mag dual boot kung meron kang pinapatakbo sa XP na di kaya sa 7.

At hindi lang display yung firewall nya. Kapag may program na aaccess ng net, tatanungin ka muna for permission.

Yes. Eto overview ng Win 7 security features for the TS:

Vulnerable parin naman ang Windows 7 pag magaling ang exploit; mas maayus nga lang ang security management kumpara sa XP. Wala namang bullet proof OS eh, ingat lang sa mga binubuksang sites or files :-D

+1

Gamit ko naman ESET Nod32 4.2.71.2 + TNOD Uname and PW lookup, para renew lang ng renew ng license pag nag expire na.
