You need to post a few things first,

Why did you change from vista to 7?
What is it causing issues with?
Did you do a clean install of Windows 7, install over Vista or use the upgrade from Microsoft?
What are the specs of your machine?

Give me that info and I will try and help you.

Thanks

Thank you,  but it was just my modem playing silly buggers.  It's all OK now.

I had to use windows 8 last night.
It was not pleasant. It took me around an hour to work out how to set up WiFi
I had to resort to the manual/Google

If you are going to use Windows 8, then I suggest you use Classic Shell.

Also reset the file associations so that items open in standard Windows programs rather than the new apps that Windows 8 has.
