I'm on the 64bit version on Vista Home Premium and while I have no operating problems I'm wondering if switching to Windows 7 will improve my system performance. I have a Intel Core 2 Duo T5800 2.0 Ghz processor with 4 MB of main memory. I frequently get a warning that my processor is running at max when I am running Firefox, Quicken, and Word or Excel at the same time. When I go to the control panel I see that my cpu usage is around 77% with 73 processes running. That's what it is now and I have Firefox, Word, and Quicken up now. I rarely run more than one thing at a time. These are mostly resident apps but only one is excecuting when I am running it.
I'm wondering if 7 does a better job of managing the processes and therefore then giving me better performance.
Thanks in advance for any advice.
