Looked at the MSF groups but did not find specific Windows 7 groups?
maybe I looked in the wrong place?

TIA

No, you didn't.

Unfortunately it's highly unlikely that there will be any Microsoft
Windows 7 newsgroups. Apparently Microsoft has decided that web-based
forums are better than newsgroups and they are putting their efforts
there. I'm personally sorry that's the case, but it's their decision,
not mine.

However there is at least one non-Microsoft Windows 7 newsgroup:
alt-windows7.general. Not all servers carry it (at least not yet), but
here's one free news server that does: aioe.org

Thanks everybody for the help.

Hi Folks ,
This is Jeyruse, I have finished my studies this
year itself. I am staying in Sydney. Glad to introduce myself
in this site. And pleased to meet all the other members
of this site
 
Two things to know:

This is a newsgroup, not a website; and
It's for Windows XP, not Windows 7.

If you've got questions about Windows XP, this is the place to ask your
fellow Windows XP users for help.

news.individual.net also carries it.
