Get Under the Hood.  Windows  7 offers more ways to peek under the hood without adding  third-party  solutions. A terrific example is the Resource Monitor. The  performance  tab in Windows Task Manager is a good start, but sometimes  you need more  information. Click the Resource Monitor button to get  more detailed  information and performance graphs for key subsystems  like CPU and Disk.  You can also find the Resource Monitor under  Accessories | System  Tools.  59. Check Vital Signs.Another   new system tool you'll enjoy is the System Health report. In the Run   dialog box, type perfmon /report, which generates a system health   report. This report records details about your computer's performance,   resource usage and more. The report also includes diagnostic information   about things that aren't working as they should and suggested steps to   resolve. The reports are saved and can be accessed with the  Performance  Monitor management console. You can also save as an HTML  file or send  via e-mail.  60. Get More Windows PowerShell.  Windows  PowerShell v2 promises to be a game-changer for many system   administrators. Many will prefer to use the graphical Windows PowerShell   console, also known as the Integrated Scripting Environment (ISE).   You'll find this in the Windows Power Shell folder under Accessories.   Add a keyboard shortcut of Ctrl+Alt+I to quickly launch it. Run any   Windows PowerShell command in the lower panel and see the results in the   middle. Create or edit scripts in the top pane. Open multiple Windows   PowerShell sessions connected to remote computers. The ISE makes  Windows  PowerShell v2 easy to use and fun (see Figure 7).  <img src="http://i.technet.microsoft.com/ee529571.ward.fig7.powershell%28en-us%29.gif" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /> Figure 7 Windows PowerShell has been much more tightly integrated with Windows 7, and adds the Integrated Scripting Environment.

One user has a 6-year-old laptop that  originally  shipped with Windows XP. He could never get Windows Vista to  install on  it. But Windows 7 installed without complaint and runs  extremely smooth.  Granted, there are some Windows 7 features he can't  take advantage of  because the processor lacks certain features, but  these are minor issues  considering the laptop now has life again.  62. Improve Security.  In Vista it was difficult to manage system protection  via restore  points. The System Protection tab in Windows 7 is a vast  improvement.  In one spot you can configure how much space to devote to  restore  points, delete and create restore points or even turn off system   protection altogether. This is very useful on older systems where disk   space may be at a premium.  63. Actually Use Help and Support.  Much  of Vista's clutter has been reduced in Windows 7. For instance,  the  Help and Support page has three links, a search window and a link  back  to Microsoft's Windows site. It's much less intimidating for end  users,  so make sure they know about it. Search is much improved as  well, making  for a better, faster experience.</blockquote>
