dont like IE7...doesnt flow well with me..and of course fails the acid 2 test but that was no surprise. i hope they do alot more work with it or at least make it more customizable, wich i am sure they will. i aint complaing just puttin in my 2 cents

On the Connect site, where do we report bugs against IE7 on WinXP? I can't spot a feedback, submit bug or similar link on the connect site, but the beta instructions say to use the Connect site to submit bugs... am I missing something obvious or is the bug-reporting mechanism not yet in place on Connect for this program?

To report Bugs on the Connect site go to the Longhorn And IE7 home and scroll down to the articles. Click on View All, the second link on that page is bug reporting

Ditto

Sounds? Really? Ehrm ... I doubt Neowin would want me to copy the Vista sounds to somewhere public, but here's a screeny : http://gallery.damn.be/v/Desktop/vista/sounds.jpg.html

Good point, but I as well would LOVE to hear some new sounds, can you ask or can a mod say something about the matter?

Ehrm, we already know the answer to this! I won't share any of Vista's files with anybody .... Maybe Gates if he asks friendly ;)

I was uhh reading the "newspaper" today and there was an article on Vista Beta 1, however, somebody damaged about half of the article by tearing chunks out of the paper... It was the ONLY article I could find in the "newspaper" on Vista Beta 1, and it was talking about the DVD. Any information on the mysterious missing pieces from the paper? ;)

Does anyone has any idea how to enable that funcky new desktop look?  With all the transparancy and everything?

Didn't that require DX9?  Because in this copy only DX8.1 is installed ...

wondering anyone know if i install longhorn vista beta 1 os will i be able to revert it back to windows xp sp2 home?

or can i just uprgade from windows home xp? clean install?

and finally installing ie 7 beta can i revert back to explorer 6?

thanks

downloading longhorn vista beta 1 now 5 hours.............to.........go................

Mmm .. can't find how to enable that new flashy desktop ...

Oh, and DX9c is installed, but the Nvidia driver only reports DX8.1... Well, it's a beta ;)

But the overall feel of Vista is smooth ... I'm running it on a Northwood 3.2Ghz, 2 Gb PC3200 ram and a 6800GT AGP ... Sometimes it's a bit borky, but it's a beta afterall...

I modded my XP to be as minimalistic as possible, and that's a very big difference with this Vista, there are buttons everywhere, and you can access almost everything from virtually anywhere ... Will take a lot of time to get used to, or even much time to mod everything back to it's minimalistic form ...

You make a new partition and then do a clean install of Vista. Not sure if you can upgrade but it's useless to for many reasons.... after testing it you can easily just keep the partition to install Beta 2 on or you can just delete it and merge the disk space with your primary partition again ;)

Hello, erm, this is Bill Gates and I have seemed to misplace the .wav files that play when you logon/logoff to Windows Vista and I will erm, send you 2 billion microbucks if you pm them to soypowered, my good friend, who will then pass them on to me, that would be fantastic!

Thanks!

    • I have not verified if any of the fixes mentioned on the below article actually work. Why Claude Code Eats All Your RAM (And How to Fix It) There are at least four separate things that can eat your RAM, and only one of them is your fault. The Four Culprits 1. Bloated Session Logs (The Silent Killer). For 2-4 and more inluding the suggested fixes, see link https://marceloretana.com/blog...aude-code-eats-all-your-ram
    • One of my PC's is Windows 11 Home Edition... and guess what? it supports Hyper-V Disks and Containers, as well as WSL2... which these desktop tools leverage on an as-needed basis. It does not need to be enabled system-wide; it merely needs to exist. Furthermore, I tried something yesterday with Hermes Desktop and their "installer" actually builds everything from source as part of its installer toolchain! The installer (and updater as it were) both go through a roughly 19-step process to prep the system for the tool to be used -- and connectivity to local/remote models, local/remote agent configs, and other steps are not included as part of this process (those are all user config steps post-install). ALSO, the "bug wasn't confirmed to exist" is the weakest argument against a bug. That's literally every flawed product's knee-jerk reaction! Even politicians, lawmakers, murderers, and other violent criminals start with that defense... "I deny everything I'm accused of." The bug is the (shared) experience. Whether it's truly Claude Code's fault, or user error, or some other software package being the ultimate culprit, is not the point. They are experiencing unpleasant side effects and don't like that.
    • Each generaton has its exciting times and I was fortunate enough to be right there at the beginning of the PC industry.   I don't think any of us at that time realized how large it would become I still remember working on a TRS-80 with a green screen monitor that kept overheating and dying.     Also used some TRS-80 PCs with tape cartridge memory.   They worked but boy were they slow with everything being a very slow sequential read or write.  But heh, they worked though it wasn't long before they were repaced by the HDD. 
    • One Drive should be a four letter word. First thing I disable on my computer. If I want to upload something to the cloud, I use a cloud base storage, NOT microsoft. Oh but what about backup. I have done backups since floppy disk eras...it just comes naturally.
    • It does just not OneCloud. 🤷🏻‍♂️
