    Installed Chrome, with similar problems..

    Wondering if it's issues with flash or scripts or something in win7.

    got win 7 seven running pretty smooth, d/l'd, installed and running (I think) better than V***A, well I suppose anything is better than v***a.
    But positively I am quite pleased with the beta

    I had initial problems with FF with Win 7. I reinstalled FF and has been working perfectly now for over a month.

    been using chrome since win7 was released.

    you had to add "–in-process-plugins" switch to the shortcut to stop it crashing on startup, but i believe they have fixed that since. i am on the development channel though, not the standard one.

    http://chromium.googlecode.com/files...hannel-2.0.exe <-- use that to change to development channel... updates almost daily rather than just when they release a major update.
