Windows 7 Starter

October 3, 2011 8:30:49 AM from WinCustomize ForumsWinCustomize Forums

Besides my notebook I came here with before with a query I also have a little netbook running Windows 7 starter. Can I run WindowBlinds on it please?

Thank you.

Some if not all of Stadocks products will not run on a starter version. Sorry.

The product page lists this in system requirements:

 Windows XP (32-bit) with Service Pack 3, Windows Vista (32-bit or 64-bit) in versions (Home, Basic, Premium, Ultimate, Business, Enterprise) and Windows 7 (32-bit or 64-bit).

IIRC, WindowBlinds will work fine in Starter, but you'll have no Aero.

Just in case anyone wonders if it would work, I installed the program, it went ok and I could apply a skin but it was choppy, boggy and interfered with the display too much, so I uninstalled it. It's a shame as it would be nice to add a little colour to my netbook. Thanks for the help.
