I Have A Dell Dimension 3000 i Installed Windows 7 With No Problems Exept I Could'nt Cange the Screen Resolution. it Was on 800x600 and The Tab or Button Was Not Allowing Me To Change It. Anyone Else Have This Problem or Is it That 7 Won't Work On My 2005 PC? Any Help On This Problem Would Be Helpful

yeah , since Windows 7 is new , all the previous drivers won't work so the beta version came out so that hardware manufacturers can create drivers , for right now windows seven as just basic genuine driver. you should wait until the hardware manufacturers develop drivers.

Mine worked perfectly well. I can adjust it to anything I want - even full screen (22 inch). And I am running W7 in a virtual partition. My Graphics is a Nvidea 6150 SE 430.
