who could get the realtek ALC880 drivers dated 2006/07/14 to install on this new build? i've had no luck so far and i also tried to manually install them it always says "this driver is not intended for this platform"... seems like vista isn't accepting old drivers from winxp anymore...

I can't add new users in this build, i can choose name & user type but after clicking apply they don't appear. the box stays blank as does the user picture ?

it's a bug...it's happening here too. I'm not booted into Vista right now, but if you bug it and post a link, then I will V & V

I'm not exactly liking the new basic theme :( Can anyone with builds 5384 or 5456 send me the basic theme file for scrap metal :) ?

How the msstyle works has been changed for 5472.5. You can not use the aero.msstyles file from any previous build of Vista on 5472.5

I reburnt the iso & this time it installed fine, only problem i've got now is the language bar keeps reappearing on the startbar.

Open up the options, then under the second tab (can't remember what it's called) select the 'hidden' option :)

Nice one ! now if i can just force firefox to the default browser i'll be happy, all links opened in windows mail open in IE7. There are 3 options in default programs (under protocols) which refuse to change to open with firefox ( have turned off the option in internet settings for ie being default ).

    • Where is the "Wow!" emoji? This'll have to do 🤩
    • I hear you on browser password manager, in my case I have two Google profiles, one was created when Google decided to grandfather us out of Workspace for Domains (with the replacement being too expensive for 25 users) resulting in my domain email address no longer being able to be registered to a new Workspace I created (for myself and another co-owner) so I could use Takeout and sync over some stuff to the new Workspace. Then I have my personal Google profile which I could be logged into on my desktop or Mobile, so I am saving passwords on one or the other, and when an URL changes another password for the same service gets added, it basically ends up being a giant mess. Unless I missed something is there a local decent password manager that can override the browser password managers for Chrome, Edge, Firefox (profiles) so that there is only one vault, and does that also support Passkeys (which to me are still confusing because sometimes it will ask for a Passkey on a phone I am no longer using!) Microsofts implementation of Passkeys is the worst!
    • It's utterly baffling that we have no idea when we'll get new features even well after they've been released. Why Microsoft thinks this is a good rollout strategy is beyond me.
    • If it makes anybody happy, others will need to be bitter about it. (apologies to Yogi Berra)
    • I owned a lot of Soundblaster cards over the years all the way back to the ISA slot era. I use a Soundblaster X3 external now because I'm able to run it through a KVM and have it follow the machine I happen to be using. It drives a set of JBL 305 powered monitors wonderfully. I'm not gaming or doing home theater through it, so rear channels aren't a consideration for me, though it does have side / rear / sub outputs.
