A lot of problems I faced with windows seven had to do with third party software not being updated by the authors to handle windows vista and windows 7.
Especially games.
My MED dictionary software had to be patched and my samsung mobile phone software was garbage on windows 7... it simply will not run.
Samsung software was garbage anyway, especially for my Toco.
I checked samsung and they had no reply but to tell me that my usb driver was obsolete and would no longer be supported.
I sold my samsung and bought a Nokia
To tell you the truth alot of what I faced with moving to windows 7 was the software was badly programmed.
Media players are even worse.
Many will fail on windows 7... because these media players need to be updated.
However some will still work if you enable compatability mode ... such as Windows XP mode or Vista service pack 1.
Just right click on your icon and go to compatability... otherwise do what I did.
download the new version... or visit the forums of the software you use.

The bad programming we got away with in earlier versions of windows we cant get away with as much in windows 7. Thats just how it turned out.
