Vista Interim Build To Be Released Monday!


Recommended Posts

The talk in the newsgroups is of tuesday, and if anyone remembers the quote: "New builds are always released on the second Tuesday of the week", we might have another day to wait.

We will see, but the release of the Dezember CTP was a Monday. I hope they will release it today. :cry:

Editing this myself to get rid of the flames I had posted for Unknown User.

I'm not even going to waste my breath on going into why he's wrong and will be proven wrong.

Needless to say if you really are a tester you will know why.

Morph how do i subscribe to the n.g. again?

LOL.

In OE hit the newsgroups button up top and select double-click on the NG you want to see added to the list and it will resubscribe to them.

I will just post this here to debunk a few things Unknown User is saying

It's one of the only times you will catch me even somewhat violating NDA.

This is a direct quote from a Microsoft Employee in regards to if we should expect a new build soon.

"Absolutely...8, 7, 6, 5.

Might be a good idea for folks to do some 'prep' to their computer this

weekend..."

Now considering who this employee is, this person would never have a tester nuke a perfectly valid install of a build just for fun.

As said Unknown User is full of crap.

As I was posting this UU proved my point by editing his early post to have in it that he could have been wrong.

Now wouldn't a Project Manager know what's going on? ;)

Also just want to state that there is not just one PM as he's making it sound. There are SEVERAL.

All the programs function that way.

Actually how is this.

If you can tell anyone who posted the quote I put above I will be astounded.

Until then YOU can STFU.

How about this....what's your connect ID? You post in the NG's and we will see if you are even a tester.

If you're not a tester than your opinion means less than dick to me.

Why don't we wait RTM and then explore the new Windows?

Anyway....

There will be a lot of corruptions, performance and other problems with Windows GUI...It is rendered by GPU, and it a lot depends of drivers. I guess the drivers has to pass WHQL certification, LDDM model. Even so i can bet in my $3000 PC Box that there will be GUI problems all over. :yes:

Apple did it using OpenGL API. Well, OpenGL is different then DX. 10 of 10 OpenGL games are running with no problem, requiring no different set of the drivers in order to have all games running correctly. 3 of 10 games supporting DX9.0 api will run fine, the other 7 will have different kind of problems like stuttering, texture corruption, generally low frame rate, crashing etc etc. DX is crap from the starting point, which everything was build on. I agree it brings all these nice features, but when all together is put into action...hm well go over nvnews and rage3d and ask them :D

I'm done with the gaming after Vista is released, and openGL is oficially dead for PC, Windows. It will be time to move to Mac OS for professional work, and get PS3 for gaming.

It's good Apple made available Mac OS on any PC platform, so i don't need to buy a new box.

It's funny how XBOX360 performs. It got a lot of diseases from PC (OS, DX API). There are games where everything seriously slows down...hmm Quake 4 for example etc...

Its coming out today, my guess that source that said 1PM EST meant PST which will be 4PM EST ;)

This was posted today, http://www.microsoft-watch.com/article2/0,...,1950156,00.asp, so thats why I think it's coming out today.

    • With how far Tim Apple's head has been up Trump's ass, there's no way this was done reluctantly.
    • Like the article stated, it's written completely from scratch, unlike the umpteen Chromium clones. It got its start as the browser built-in to the also written-from-scratch SerenityOS.
    • Hello, From looking at the screen shots in your motherboard's manual at https://endownload.colorful.cn/EnDownload/MotherBroard/2022/Intel 600/Manual/Intel 600 Series BIOS English/Intel 600 Series BIOS User Guide.pdf, you go to the ADVANCED option at the top of the BIOS (UEFI) menu, then select SECURITY in the list of options on the left.  From there  you can enable and set the Secure Boot mode.

    • Final Fantasy VII Remake Part 3 is getting a simultaneous release across PC and all consoles by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Square Enix showed up to the Summer Game Fest presentation today with multiple trailers showing off its next chapter in the Final Fantasy VII Remake saga. The final chapter of this trilogy now has an official name too, with it being dubbed Final Fantasy VII Revelation, following up Final Fantasy VII Remake and Final Fantasy VII Rebirth from recent years. Vincent Valentine, Cid, Cloud, Barret, Tifa, and more showed up in the trailers as they battle against enemies, or 'Weapons,' from the final chapter. "As the world teeters on the brink of annihilation, the final battle against Sephiroth begins," says the trailer description. "A meteor mars the sky, monstrous planetary guardians wreak havoc across the globe, and the fires of war rage. Now, Cloud and his companions must stand against this chaos to not only decide the planet's fate, but bring a legendary conflict to its conclusion." Following the reveal trailer, the show also dropped some gameplay footage that shows off a new way to travel across the open world using the Highwind airship. Players will be able to swap characters on during battles, use tactical mode to synchronize with allies, and summon their entities. Cid Highwind and Vincent Valentine are joining the party this time too. “FINAL FANTASY VII, first released in 1997, has been beloved by fans for many years and has since become a “legend” in its own right," added producer Yoshinori Kitase. "The FINAL FANTASY VII Remake Series that began in 2020 with everyone’s passionate support is finally reaching its climactic finale with FINAL FANTASY VII REVELATION. The story’s final destination represents my emotions spanning thirty years working on this title" One of the biggest revelations of this announcement, however, was the multiplatform release confirmation from the get-go. Square Enix will be releasing Final Fantasy VII Revelation across PC, Xbox Series X|S, Nintendo Switch 2, and PlayStation 5 in Spring 2027 without any timed exclusivity programs.
    • Hello, Having a simple utility to allow Microsoft's customers to configure the context menu, with a few options like showing the current menu, showing a proposed menu/alternate configurations, loading and saving the settings, and a "reset to default" option would have solved this. Let Microsoft provide a recommended default look-and-feel, maybe a couple alternative configurations, like a basic/simplified version of that, and a more advanced version for that, and that would have been very well-received, I think. Microsoft could even had offered a library of different configurations, similar to what they have done in the past for Windows Media Player skins, Themes, and desktop wallpaper.
