Hi to all members of this pretty forum. 

Well I went ahead and did the Win 7 upgrade.  Everything went pretty good.  The only issue I have right now is when I go to HP TouchSmart the panels are very wide and each one takes up almost the whole screen.  Either the update did not go well for this part or I am missing something.

Resize using two fingers does not work.

Some ideas?, Thanks in adavance.

I bet you need to update your video drivers or settings, the wrong resolution would cause a symptom just like this..

If you updated the TouchSmart applications as well (got the 3.0 "suite") that's by design. See my blog post on the design changes in 3.0: http://www.geektieguy.com/2009/10/26/design-changes-in-the-touchsmart-3-0-sof...

Oh, and two finger resize of the tiles was removed in 3.0.

You're right, thank you very much.

PS: I do not like the new design of TouchSmart 3.0

so its the touchsmart 3 and not win 7 that does this? i had a different computer with touchsmart 2x and upgraded to win7 and got the big tiles. only way to remedy it was to go back to vista. so you think a downgrade to vista using this new 3.0 touchsmart computer wont work?

Touchsmart V3.x applications will not run on Vista

I think they might (slight chance), but that would be something that's not supported by HP, since it wasn't tested/planned for.

Same goes for V2.x apps on Win 7. Might work, but isn't supported, since it wasn't tested/planned that way.

very useful to know.. I was under the mistaken impression the 2.x apps didn't run under Win7 at all.
