    I'm on Windows 7, the little offer icon has now disappeared from my computer but I didn't download it because I think you have to pay for it after a certain time also I'm afraid there may be some changes and things I won't understand

    No Michael you don't pay for it.

    Just takes a little bit of getting used to but it's good - and of course remember how many of us said we will never change from xp and we did and what an improvement!

    Maybe too many people downloading it at once. Just google Microsoft's main site perhaps

    Depends on your processor 32 bit, and 64 bit. 64 bit lets you use over 4 gigs of ram. Check SYSTEM to see what you have. 32 bit is old hat now.

    It's the Media Centre you have to pay for. To burn DVD/CD just use Ashampoo Burner Free.
