    Folks,

    I have seen my P-6860FX users installed Windows 7 x64. I wonder whether they have issues like me. I just have clean installed Windows 7 x64 with retail DVD. However, I have a couple issues with Windows 7 x64.

    1. I got BSOD intermittently. I don't know still why this is happened :confused: . It might be related to the 2nd issue.
    2. The sound card causes screen freeze, so I disabled the device driver. Now it doesn't look like freezing again. Even though I installed the latest Vista driver from Gateway support (Other thread says it might be helpful to fix it, but It doesn't resolve my issue)
    3. Sometimes, mouse is not responsible for a couple of seconds.(stops for 2-3s, and works again)

    If you had any problems other than above issues in P-6860FX, could you share your solutions?

    Thanks you,
    swpark.
