Windows7  is amazing- but one major flaw just surfaced: it fails under the installation of 1TB SATA discs. For some reason, the OS cannot handle that much information- and leads to critical errors. In such a case, end users might come across one of the Stop error message from the following: STOP 0x0000007A, STOP 0×00000077 or STOP 0x000000F4. Microsoft has identified the source of the problems and specifies a fix. The hotfix available for download through Microsoft Support is however, intended to resolve only the specific issue described above. Users not affected by this issue should not implement the hotfix, and wait for the first update from Microsoft that will contain it, most probably Service Pack 1 (SP1).

It’s quite odd that what doesn’t stop Vista or XP users, staggers Windows 7 users. Shouldn’t this have been addressed intrinsically during product development? After all, the era of Gigabyte sized applications and games is nearly at an end.

What do you think of this Windows faux pas?
