This one question which will arise in everyone minds when the new operating system is released. We are very used to the Windows XP operating system with its User friendly interface and interactivity. We would not like to shift our focus to different one.
Certain reason why we should move to Windows 7:
1) In coming years Microsoft will stop supporting Window XP and again we will need to suffer like we have been using Windows 98 when it was completely out of support for drivers and other hardware compatibility.
2) Windows Vista which was a flagship of Microsoft to make the GUI features of Windows more interactivity and user friendly, which it was successful, but lost in the performance field.
3) The technology is emerging and we need to be in-par with it. Touch Screen, Cloud Computing and many more.
These are certain reason why we should move to Windows 7. Microsoft has been gathering feedback from end-users, worked hard to make the new Operating System in par with the End user requirements.
Windows 7 is available in 3 features:
This tweak reduces the time XP waits before automatically closing any running programs when you give it the command to shutdown. Go to Start then select Run Type 'Regedit' and click ok Find 'HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\Desktop\' Select 'WaitToKillAppTimeout' Right click and select 'Modify' Change the value to '1000' Click 'OK' Now select 'HungAppTimeout' Right click and select 'Modify' Change the value to '1000' Click 'OK'

1. Wallpapers: They slow your whole system down, so if you're willing to compromise, have a basic plain one instead!
2. Drivers: Update your hardware drivers as frequently as possible. New drivers tend to increase system speed especially in the case of graphics cards, their drivers are updated by the manufacturer very frequently!
3. Minimizing: If you want to use several programs at the same time then minimize those you are not using. This helps reduce the overload on RAM.
4. Boot Faster: The 'starting Windows 98/XP' message on startup can delay your booting for a couple of seconds. To get rid of this message go to c:\ and find the file Msdos.sys. Remove the Read-Only option. Next, open it in Notepad or any other text editor. Finally, go to the text 'Options' within the file and make the following changes: Add BootDelay=0. To make your booting even faster, set add Logo=0 to remove the Windows logo at startup.
5. Restart only Windows: When restarting your PC, hold down Shift to only restart Windows rather than the whole system which will only take a fraction of the time.
6. Turn Off Animations: Go to Display Settings from the Control Panel and switch to the Effects Tab. Now turn off Show Windows Content While Dragging and Smooth Edges on Screen Fonts. This tip is also helpful with Windows XP because of the various fade/scroll effects.
