    Hey I'm trying to run Stellarium on my AAO 150 but it does hardly respond. It's very slow. When booting Mac OS X, Stellarium runs perfectly fine.
    How can this happen? Do I need special drivers for 7? Or does Windows 7 need that much "power"?
    Thank you.

    That's because not all windows software is 100% compatible with Windows 7.... You might have forgotten that Win7 is still in beta. Wait for an update of stellarium that fully supports Windows 7. Cheers.

    I think, it's the missing Open GL driver. Had the same problem with XP without the driver but I'm not sure which driver to install under Windows 7. When I dl the newest one for vista it says I already had a newer one.
