Main Differences between Win7 and Win8 1)Boot time: win7 : 48sec win8 : 10sec 2)Desktop : Microsoft has replacedthe normal shortcut icons with dynamic tiles. 3)Mounting iso images: Win7 could only burn an ISO image to a DVD but Win8 actually betters this by offering you the option to mount the image too. In Win7, you didn’t have the option to make virtual drives to use the ISO image’s content but Win8 allows to create a virtual drive to mount the ISO image so that you can easily use it just like a normal DVD. 4)Built-in Antivirus: Win8 has an antivirus present inside the kernel of the operating system. This means that your system won’t boot if a corrupt USB device is plugged in. It sounds impressive though we don’t know whether it would pass the test of time and viruses! All in all, Win8 is a serious upgrade on Windows7 and with Microsoft working on the things that require some tweaking 5)Multiple monitors support in Windows : Microsoft announced that customers can use more than onemonitor to connect with Win8 operating system.
