Yes. The next Windows OS is "Windows 7" but its just codename. The final name will be different like Vista (codename Longhorn).

thanks pal abt the news. where did u get such news and what abt xp sp3

do any of you have windows 3.0/3.1 or other such ancient OS . I just want to try out some.

 

[chicha]

may be here


and i do not think you can install any os before 98 on the hardware.
long long time back when i had AMD 2600 i tried installing 98 i could install but my audio had problems so did my graphics.

3.0 , 3.1 Users is Impossible at this time. Today even a Rs. 2k Junk Yard quality PC can run Win95.
