Windows 7-Help
 

Windows 7 is the newest version of Microsoft Windows operating system for use on personal computers, including business desktops, laptops, netbooks, tablet PCs and media center PCs.  UIS has performed testing on all standard university applications and site-licensed software and have found only one or two older applications are not supported on the Windows 7 platform.  UIS continues to work with these applications and users to find solutions.

 

Windows 7 is easy to navigate and offers many unique services.  Please take the time to become familiar with Windows 7 by visiting the sites below and by simply navigating through your computer.  UIS will continue to create and add resources to assist our campus users with the transition to Windows 7.
