    Playing Games on Windows 7

    Windows 7 has become a popular OS but a lot of players seem to have problems with running games on there windows 7 and always blame the OS. Before this game is fully up and running here is a small guide for playing games on windows 7.

    Pros and Cons of Windows 7 and Games

    Windows 7 Gaming Features (Pros)
    1. Smooth game run
    2. Less lag
    3. Saves More Ram (better performance)



    Cons
    1. Windows Defender automatically blocks a lot of games (turn off windows defender and use your antivirus)
    2. Graphics Automatically adjust to fit the games (older games are not usally upgraded to fit windows 7 so windows 7 adjust its setting to fit the game which may mess up any other games you have open at the time


    Necessary Requirements for Games to Run Smoothly
    1. Graphic card: no specific graphic cards a lot are compatible (always upgrade your outdated graphics card)
    2. RAM 1gb+ (Computers with less than 1gb of ram are eligible for windows 7 upgrade games will run smoothly, but don't count on playing new games smoothly with less then 2gb of ram)
    3. Sound cards: most from 2000+ are acceptable


    Important things to do before playing installing a new game
    1. Make sure you check the games system requirements
    2. Update all drivers to the most recent one
    3. Install DirectX (that is very important never forget to install directX
    4. Allow the game to your firewall. (this is not necessary but better safe then sorry)

    A. Yes it will depending on your computer ram if you have less then 2gb of ram make sure you don't have anything running that you are not using . This will slow down the performance

    A. Yes you can, (no i am not telling you how to do it because some games do not allow this)

    Q. I have less then 1gb of RAM and have windows 7 and constantly keep lagging while playing
    A. There is a simple solution follow this upgrade your grade your graphics card or do the following below but cant promise anything

    1. Clean out your computer such as temporary internet files, old unused files, etc. How: Go to start menu, All programs and files, accessories, system tools, clean disk
    2. Close out any unused programs (IM, internet or firefox, etc)
