Would this be good for a desktop, running Windows 7?

As long as your desktop has SATA connections you should have no problem. Will work on SATA 2 or 3.

I used this drive in my desktop running Windows 7 and I have no complaints so far. It's been a few months and it runs way faster than it did with XP and a platter based hard drive.

I'm running this on my desktop with windows 7 and it works great! Highly recomended

Without a doubt as long as it has SATA hookups (about 3/4 of an inch and usually red) rather than IDE (about 2 inches and usually grey)

That would be the best thing you could do for your computer and your piece of mind. I feel it is better then Windows 8.

Yes, I use it on a windows 7 it works well on that as well as programs I run under XP Still very happy after a couple of months use.

I'm using it on a Windows 7 machine. Works great. Make sure you have the power supply connections available for it.

Probably not. It works great as desktop work for up to four screens, but processing calculations and heavy rendering it lacks

Sure, but if you already have this machine, you might trying setting up a Win8 VM on it. That would allow you to keep your installation reasonably virgin, and minimize the risks of changing the OS and bungling it all up.

Yes. Your are able to download any windows compatible programs to it. It has a desktop view just like windows 7.

It will work great on a Windows 7 system. However, make sure your computer has a PCIe 3.0 slot to install it in. It will not work with PCIe 2.0 - not enough power to run the graphics card.

Possibly, the one I bought had ubuntu on it but it will run windows 7 decently I would check to see what year the game was released if it was near 2007 you should be ok.

I have Windows 7 so can't answer your question. However the specs should tell you what you need to know.

Absolutely. You won't have any trouble running 64bit Windows or apps like Photoshop CC.

It's a little low on RAM, but with another 2GB stick it should be able to run Windows 7 fairly well. I'm running Ubuntu 12.04LTS on mine with XBMC using Aeon MQ5 skin and I have zero complaints. Runs quiet and reliably. The only time I ever have to restart it is when one of my add-ons has an issue (not the machine's fault).

As long as it's desktop, there should be no problem. Just make sure you have available slot

It is possible to run Win7 on it, but you have to adjust the BIOS settings to turn off UEFI. Truthfully, 8.1 is actually pretty good. The learning curve from 7 isn't bad (I just stay on the desktop all the time) and some of the newer features are actually quite useful.

It should work, but not all features are available if you dont have windows 7

You're gpu would be the main facter in performence, but you should be fine. I run Windows 8 and there are no problems for me

I should work well on a win 7 system, Intel cards have the best compatibility generally
