What is your graphics card. Maybe it is not up to Win7 specs.

well when you did a clean install you would of lost the driver for your video card, you should download the latest driver version for your video card, either form Nvidia or ATI, or VIA, whichever one you have.
the generic Win7 video drivers arent nearly as good as the brands versions.

@ atomic, yeah WEI is rubbish, my whole system was 7.9 then all because of the WD caviar green i have i got a total of 5.9, still a 160GB 10000rpm is better than my 500GB caviar green, yet you only get 5.1 and i get 5.9???? what a load of garbage WEI. ha ha

mickeyblue, get this one for $99 - your wei will go up to at least 7.1. It is ample for the OS.

i REALLY want one, ive taken up your advice and looked into SSD's, and im saving for one, but at the moment they are SUPER expensive here in China, for that exact model here in China its over $200, still very new to China, can you believe it. when prices come down ill get one thats for sure.

There was/is a bug in Vista SP2 that can mess up your system if you run WEI. It may have passed on to W7.

This is not a bug, the Windows N versions are for Europe, which in 2004, the government stated windows cant ship with windows media player (wmp). This is the piece that is missing. I recently installed a Windows 7 N version not knowing that this was the key difference between Windows 7 and Windows 7 N... or K or what ever. I think K is Asia/(maybe Korea?)

either way, its not going to work anytime soon. not sure why this was linked to WMP but it was.
