To tell you the truth, Microsoft has already released a tool which lets you check if your computer hardware is compatible with Windows 7. The issue with such a tool is that it doesn’t help those users who are planning to buy a new laptop or desktop computer. In fact, it just scans your existing computer reporting you if it can run Windows 7 and what hardware is compatible and what is not. Aware of this issue, Microsoft has released an interesting online tool which tells you what hardware and software is compatible with Windows 7. This is extremely useful above all when you want to buy a new machine and want to know in advance if everything is allright!

Windows 7 Compatibility Center is an online tool which checks and reports you if a certain piece of hardware and software is compatible with Windows 7. Reading from the website: “Sometimes it’s hard to know what’s compatible and what’s not. To help make it easier, we list thousands of products and clearly label their compatibility status for Windows 7.”…”The Compatibility Center lists thousands of the most popular devices and software titles to help you easily identify what will or won’t work with the Windows 7 operating system. You can use the site to download device drivers and software updates, as well as leave feedback on how we can improve.”
