Hi,
I have install Windows 7 in my MacBook.
But I having few problems.

1. Everytime when I switch from 1 OS to another OS, the date time changed.
For example, I set the MacOS date time to 09/June/2009 14:00. If I go to Windows 7 and restart back to MacOS, the date time changed to 09/June/2009 06:00. Same thing happened for the Windows 7.
I have set the Time Zone to Kuala Lumpur for both OS, but still having same problem.

2. After install Windows 7, a new shortcut created in MacOS desktop which is name "Untitled". This is the Windows 7 partition. Can I change the name to "Windows 7"??

3. Eject button is not working in Windows 7 even I have install the Apple Keyboard.

4. Cannot use right-click on TrackPad even I have install the drivers.

I really hope to solve this problem ASAP as I might take this laptop with me to India for biz trip soon.

Thank You.

Why are you worrying about the date?
Not important
Yes you can name it Windows 7
Windows does not have such a button you'll have to do it manually
I dont know wat Trackpad is, so cant answer that one
hope it helps
Yours,

The date & time is quite important for me cause I will need to know few countries date & time as I have to support those countries users.
And also all my files I will need to have the exact date & time so that I know when the files has modified.

For the name change from "Untitled" to "Windows 7". I can't change it from "Get Info", it has been disabled. So where can I change this? This actually not that important but I just hope to know where and how to do this.

Anyway really appreciate your reply.

Thank You and hope to get more replies. :)

Can't help you there. Just make sure that you have wireless or some internet whilst in India and you can have the time sync via internet.

2. After install Windows 7, a new shortcut created in MacOS desktop which is name "Untitled". This is the Windows 7 partition. Can I change the name to "Windows 7"??

Just change the name in windows (with C: changing by right clicking and then rename)

3. Eject button is not working in Windows 7 even I have install the Apple Keyboard.

4. Cannot use right-click on TrackPad even I have install the drivers.
