i got my party pack and installed the 64 bit...but i made the mistake of updating my drivers
and allthough Vista drivers toughted as windows 7 compatable or work with vista and win 7.
.not so as my system would blink the video after startup and i would loose my wifi and after 2 or 3 minutes
it would blink again and i get my wifi back and every once in awhile
i get BSOD bad pool header 00000019 after looking it up on the internet
there was suggestion a bad or corrupted driver or registry so i backed up all my stuff reformated
the drive including the system partition and reinstalled
there were some reinstall failures so i reformated several times and the reinstall took... so for
a while i am sticking with the drivers supplied by windows 7 original only and no auto updates
on the drivers...so update at your own risk... and thats my experience... BSF

I found something great and whats even greater is its FREE
and no strings...the windows 95 powertoys does not work
with Vista or win 7 i.e. it will NOT install so therefore no nice usefull
sendto any folder option which means all vista and win7 machines are crippled
But i stumbled of this a free file manager and free sento toys...enjoy
