Windows 7 Still in the Evaluation Phase
Windows users are excited about the new and improved features Windows 7 offers; but as a friendly reminder, Windows 7 is not yet a supported operating system for the university community.
Whenever there are major upgrades to any operating system, Information Technology and Computing Services (ITCS) thoroughly tests the new version with our existing systems to make sure users continue to enjoy full functionality from administrative, educational and medical systems like Banner, Blackboard, IDX and Logician.
Windows 7 is still in this evaluation stage, so we are asking ECU users to postpone upgrading to Windows 7 until we’re certain it’s compatible with ECU systems, various software programs and online applications.
After the evaluation is complete, announcements about Windows 7’s support at ECU will be distributed to users.
