Does Avast 6.0 free works properly on Win7 Starter?
« on: March 26, 2011, 07:03:29 PM »
I bought a netbook with Win 7 starter and I would install avast 6.0 free.
So, I want to know if he works properly on Win7 Starter x86.
Has someone tested Avast 6.0 on Win 7 Starter?

Thanks to all!

Works like a charm on my mother's netbook with Windows 7 Starter.

It is on my acer aspire one 10.1" 1024x600 netbook and no problems.

Though one of the first thing I did was but a 2GB RAM upgrade as I still think 1GB on win7 starter (or other version) is woefully inadequate as it was using 75% RAM without running anything particularly heavy. Even before the RAM upgrade avast was fine.

It's Windows 7 just like any other, just with some limitations. But none of them limit basic program functionality.
