:unsure: I have a Dell Latitude D610 and beta 1 just won't install on it... wonder why?

Files load, and I see the boot screen, but afterwards the screen just goes black and never comes back. :(

The D610 has ability to ship with an X300 PCIe graphics adapter. Per the readme I think this may apply to you, it's not exact but close enough to make one go hmmm:

Display

This note applies only to Windows "Longhorn," not Windows Server "Longhorn."

The graphic device drivers included in Windows "Longhorn" Beta 1 do not support the ATI X700 AGP or X800XL AGP graphics devices. Because the PCI-Express versions of these graphics devices are supported, and the AGP versions have the same device ID, Windows "Longhorn" will attempt to install the PCI-Express version of the driver. This can result in a black display screen on computers with the X700 AGP or the X800XL AGP devices. To work around this problem, start your computer in VGA display mode and install the latest ATI Catalyst XDDM display driver.

err maybe not that is AGP --> PCIe not the other way around.

Continuing the notebook graphics discussion, since I don't have ability to post to betanews yet, anyone else out there able to get full DirectX 9.0c support for the Dell Precision M70? It's adapter is a nVidia QuadroFX 1400 Go PCIe. I am getting DirectX 8.1 when I go to the property sheet of the driver. This is with both the native driver and the updated 77.37 driver. The Dell drivers installed but ended up crashing applet when I accessed it.

I am not getting any of the transparent effects :(. This is a pretty hefty card with 256MB video ram.

Don't ask me, i thought trend micro was doing fine.

but its worth a look i guess, you have to suck some

rear before they just up and give you ( i cannot believe I used the word "give")

One of their NEW products, I mean they should PAY us to learn this stuff not REQUIRE us to do it and then CHARGE US!! I think they s***

But they are the only real game in town and that the way it is kiddies

life is one

you marry one

then we pay MS to TEST their cr**

Posting this on Vista. :)

Aero transparency and all other affects work on Dell Inspirion 6000 with ATI Mobility Radeon X300. I wasn't sure if it would.

No errors so far...

THANK YOU! I was waiting for someone to say that. I have a X300SE, I'm so glad it works. lol.

At the top select the link for Longhorn and then you get testing senarious and be able to file bugs, etc..

    • JetBrains is working to cut false positives in RustRover 2026.2 by David Uzondu Recently, JetBrains released the fifth EAP build of its dedicated IDE, RustRover 2026.2, bringing improvements like a Run gutter icon for criterion_main! macro benchmarking and a feature that alerts you when there are unused traits in your current scope. Now, the company is out with a blog post addressing one of the "most common" complaints from users: false positives. In RustRover, a false positive occurs when the editor incorrectly highlights something as an error even though the project compiles and runs successfully. This mismatch flags a gap between the IDE's internal intelligence and the actual compiler. When the editor flashes red warnings over perfectly valid code, developers lose trust in the tool, which stalls momentum. Traditionally, RustRover runs cargo check to detect compiler errors and warnings, but it also relies on its own code analysis engine to power real-time features. To provide quick feedback, this engine parses your source code into a syntax tree while inferring types and resolving names as you type. Because this engine must work on broken, half-written code and react instantly, its logic sometimes diverges from the compiler's, producing false positives that do not exist in the compiler's eyes. JetBrains said that it has a "dedicated task force" focused specifically on identifying and fixing false positives by analyzing user reports and examining large-scale open-source projects. To speed up this process, the team built an internal system modeled after Crater, the famous Rust project that compiles and runs tests for every single crate published on crates.io. This automated pipeline compares the diagnostics from RustRover's analysis with actual compiler output to catch discrepancies before they reach users, ensuring smoother workflows. RustRover, for those who're unaware, is a dedicated IDE designed specifically for Rust developers. It's been around for a couple of years now, providing features like built-in debugging via LLDB, seamless cargo integration, advanced macro expansion, and HTML support. JetBrains distributes the app under two licensing models: a paid commercial subscription and a free option for non-commercial use.
    • Last year I bought the 2TB variant for $114 on Amazon. That's crazy that the 1TB is now 67% more expensive for half the storage, even with the newer T9 already on the market. And that's considered a good deal.
    • You can disable all non needed features from Brave. There is also Brave Origin which removes them entirely and it is free for Linux.
    • I wish I could use Brave but the tab suspension feature is horrible. It doesn't suspend them like Edge does. Even after 2h open with 70+ tabs (same as Edge), it has 2GB more consumption than Edge for no reason.
