    Hi guys, just wanted to ask if anyone has Windows 7 64bit on their GT725. Do the touch buttons work? Any driver issues? I just wanted to find out before wiping the machine tonight.

    thanks!

    I installed 7 RC to dual boot last week. Install SCM for the touch buttons. I haven't run into any issues.

    Besides installing the control drivers/app for the touch buttons, it should work pretty well out of the box. If you run into issues, try getting Windows 7 specific drivers for your machine or matching Vista drivers if 7 specific ones aren't available. Beyond that you can also post any problems to the official Windows 7 RC Support Forum located here:

    It is supported by product specialists as well as engineers and support teams. They are usually pretty quick to respond.
