Alright, just wanted to post somewhere with Windows 7 already started. Just installed this today on a 17gb partition (all I was able to get really) and I must say, I am so far impressed with the look, feel and color/theme of Windows 7. Im using the RC and cannot wait for it to come out to be honest with you. Ill add more as I use it more :)

Im still getting those damn black boxes on all my icons. I cant figure out how to make them go away.

Mussels,

Im sort of having the same issue as you. I dont use homegroup however and granted only one pc is running Win7. Anyway, when I share a file on my server, Win7 cant access it. Funny thing though its giving me problems in WMP. I have shared folders on my server with music in them. When I try to access that music in those folders it gives me an error message that WMP cant play the music. I have to tell WMP to stop looking at that specific folder(s) and then direct WMP back to the same folders and it works. Really weird.

whats weird is that while no one can access the shares on this one machine, WMP can access shared libraries and streaming media.
