    Hello there,

    I have installed Win 7 and it is running great in Inspiron 1420. It is a little faster than Vista. I just have a question.

    Does anybody have experienced repetitious checkdisk messages while booting, although Win 7 has shutdown correctly?

    Thnx

    I used an Inspiron 1420 with windows 7 and never had any problems. If you're up to it, a simple clean re-installation of windows 7 might solve that problem.
