Vista Build 5342 Released - Official Topic

[Ran Sagy]

I think ill wait for paul thurrott's 4th and 5th part about 5302 and then about this build aswell.

I wonder if i can get online in vista now that (XP) driver compatability is higher (some random ECI USB ADSL modem).

[fix-this!]

^ Yep. I was one of the first 25 people to get the X86 build. Twelve more minutes until Its done :).

Installing right now. Its going to take about 40 minutes to install. By 8 PM EST, I should have screenshots. If I don't, Im lazy or there isn't any noticeable changes.

Give us a desktop screenie anyway - for screenshots sake.

[Alladaskill17]

^^^^ Agreed, at least give us a screenshot or two, just to have some screens posted.

Stop complaing, I'm getting 60Kb/s and it will take 15 hours. Stupid England.

[kinetix63 Veteran]

4/5 hours remaining here. Will probably just wait until tomorrow to finish it off. I'm feeling sleepy!

Here's hoping this build will actually install on my rig... 5308 outright refused to.

The only way a broadband modem should connect to a computer is thru ethernet. Never usb :x

[madnuke]

Downloading now, the speed is rubish I guess connect servers must be hammered.

[daytona]

[Ambroos]

Loads of dutch people on neowin.. (like me BTW)

Speaking about Vista torrents will cause problems - Radish?b>

Not in the UK and probably the rest of Europe. Almost all BB modems in the UK are USB for some reason.

[madnuke]

Speed has increased somewhat....

[thollian]

[morficus]

CRC Value is for what?and why Microsoft give 3 product key?

[I8PP]

CRC is to verify the file's integrity. Multiple keys for multiple systems, testing different platforms, hardware, etc.

assuming that you are in the beta, email the connect program manager (the email will be in the connect page).

What does x86 mean anyway?

[Buzz99]

pc not with 64 bit os/processor

[Kraftman]

What does x86 mean anyway?

It means 32-bit. x64 means 64-bit.

[richardsim7]

But 32 doesn't = 86?? :laugh: :s
