Windows 7 still acting stupid.

1) Windows reports no connection to the Internet but IE works just fine so the connection does work.

2) When I attempt to check the performance increase on Windows 7 (if there is one) now Performance won't work. Check the ScreenShot I include below. Typical of Windows "due to an error" but Windows rarely says WHAT THE ERROR IS.

I hope in the future the companies that write only Windows code will start writing for OSX so I can stop using Windows in any form. It is simply junk.

 

Couldn't be happier with my Win 7 operation with my new MBA 11" (1.8Mhz). The Windows rating is about the same as my iMac. IMHO, Win7 is not junk although if probably is a tad behind OS X. Of course, my Win 7 performance probably gets a BIG boost from Par7. In the past I've used Par4 and Par5 and was not that impressed.

I might add that I installed Parallels 7 on a brand new MBA, immediately followed by the Win7 installation and that might have something to do with the smooth operation I'm seeing. Don't pinch me, I might wake up.

 

Yes this is what I get also on my 11 inch AIR... and I migrated it from my PRO... but on my PRO Windows 7 is still acting up and I don't know why.

 

Just a followup

Ok, I fixed issue (1) by changing to the "default Adaptor" rather than the Parallels adaptor..

Issue (2) however remains.. Windows 7 refuses to do a Performance Assessment giving an error which it can't define.

So far I have reinstalled Parallels, then reinstalled Windows 7 and the exact same issue came back.
Before reinstalling Parallels I cleaned off every tiny piece of the app even the hidden files... so I know it's a clean install.

Other than this all appears to be fine and Windows performs quite well.

As near as I can tell this is an issue with the Parallels video driver.
