Can i reformat my computer with windows 7 beta? -

I just downloaded and burned it last night. minimum speed was 2, but but i made it 4x. When I installed windows 7, it messed up a few of my things. I have 2 usb mice and when I plug them in, windows cant read it. (im on a laptop btw) My antivirus doesnt work any more either. Along with some other problems. How can I fix this, and if I can t, is it possible to reformat my computer with just the windows 7 beta? Oh, and if partitioning is needed, can I just do that with my windows xp cd, then stick in the windows 7 cd and install it ?

I installed W7 by itself two days ago. My McAfee anti virus did not work wither when I tried to install it. So I downloaded AVG which works fine. Open Office works great too. All my USB ports worked great. Then I deleted it and loaded VISTA and got all the updates etc. Right now I am loading W7 again but keeping ability to revert to VISTA. I started with a new hard drive on my extra Laptop keeping my initial VISTA HD safely put away. Just playing with this one.

all the things you want to do can be done with the windows 7 cd for the mice you might need to download the driver for the anti virus norton 09 works the old ones don t im sure more do but i use that one and it works great yes you can format with the windows 7 cd and create or delete portions you don t need the xp cd to do portions.

yeap
