Its posted on the first page in comments and all that.

ok so from my understanding the ESD version is to do an upgrade from like windows 7 to windows 8 and only do that . cause if that is correct then all use the ESD

There is also a C2R-based upgrader (those of you that participated in the earlier InstallFair - this is what we were testing) that can be used for upgrades (including from the WDP, which I am doing as I type this).

So there's three ways - ISO (all clean installs), ESD (upgrade installs from Windows 7) and C2R (upgrade installs from Windows 7 and the WDP).

O god. What did I do..lol

Upgrading didn't go very well it seems. Ended up with a weird two desktop version, broken HTMl5 apps and BSOD's :) So I'm going clean..

Edit: Downloads are getting very slow for me. Normally I get like 5-6MB per second. Now it's like 700kb/sec.

Hopefully It will not BSOD before the download is finished :)

Edit 2: They keep falling back. Now it's like 400kb/sec..

Hopefully someone post the X64 ISO on Usenet as soon as possible.

You use Internet Explorer Manager to do a download? You gotta be ****ting me. Go install Internet Download Manager and make 16 connections with it.

Use the 32-bit version, I'm typing from VMWare 8 right now.

Im installing the 32bit version into vmware now. did a Sha1 hast check on the x64 and it was fine, so must be a problem with VMware and the x64 version

O god. What did I do..lol

It automatically upgrades if you use the Autorun, you need to go and install via the Setup.exe on the .iso, unless something has changed, then choose the Custom Install option.

Woudln't go any faster, i'm on a 30Mbps line so 3-4MB is my fastest. Those things are so outdated since the days of IE6. When servers and connections were slow then yeah sure it made sense but Microsoft will full my pipes with anything used to download.

But...but...but MORE connections has to be better !!! :rofl:

Firing it up now in VMware. Hopefully they've improved my gripes with the Metro interface on desktops and laptops.

It feels the exact same as the dev preview to me. Although I dislike it even more because there is no start menu in this one. Unless an option to enable it becomes available, that alone is going to make up my mind to stay with Windows 7 (mind you the god awful start page is a reason in itself).

None of the apps on the start page will even launch, they all crash when I click them, and what apps do work take me into the desktop mode. Granted, I prefer the desktop over the start screen, but it still feels very broken.

    • OpenAI is rolling out a major upgrade to ChatGPT memory by Pradeep Viswanathan OpenAI is rolling out a major upgrade to ChatGPT's memory, making the system more capable, current, and scalable across long-term use. Memory allows ChatGPT to remember useful details about users, including their preferences, projects, and constraints. Instead of starting every conversation from scratch, ChatGPT can use this context to provide more relevant responses in future chats. OpenAI first launched saved memories in February 2024. That feature allowed users to explicitly ask ChatGPT to save information into its memory, such as travel plans or writing preferences. However, this system had limits because it depended heavily on users giving clear instructions to remember something. Additionally, saved memories could become stale over time. In April 2025, OpenAI expanded memory by allowing ChatGPT to reference past chat context outside the saved memories list. This was powered by a background process called “dreaming,” which automatically curates memories from chat history. This made ChatGPT better at learning from natural conversation without requiring users to manually save every detail. Today, OpenAI announced a more capable and compute-efficient memory architecture built on top of dreaming. This new system improves ChatGPT’s ability to carry forward useful context, follow user preferences, and remain accurate as time passes. According to OpenAI’s internal evaluations, the new system improves factual recall from 67.9% in 2025 to 82.8% in 2026. Preference adherence improves from 55.3% to 71.3%, while accuracy over time improves from 52.2% to 75.1%. The best part of this new system is a new memory summary page where users can review ChatGPT's memories. Users can even update details, correct information, or give instructions on what topics ChatGPT should bring up and when. This new, improved memory system is available to ChatGPT Plus and Pro users in the US starting today. It will roll out to more countries, as well as Free and Go users, in the coming weeks.
    • I work for a video production company in Australia. The camera operators shoot footage and then pass the SD card over to the editors. Much easier than handing over the entire camera. Plus, on a busy day you can hand off the SD card and then pop another in for the next shoot. Or, you might have used multiple SD cards because you need the extra space for a long shoot. I also use USB cables and wifi for transferring footage, but in many cases an SD card reader is the easiest method.
