Honestly, I'll wait until MS releases it on connect. That link needs to be reported or something. There's something hinky about it.

SP1 has been better than the final ed. Just still has bugs and uncomfortable aspects to it. I'd wait for a final release of SP1 if you are not an official MS beta tester. It simply isn't worth it.

The link tells you how to edit a file, thats all. It works fine, and tested fine.

If you don't want to run SP1 RC then pass on it. A lot of people would like the opportunity, and this way is legit and works fine.

Running it 3 days, no issues at all

Why do you want to report a link? People like you ruin it for everyone.

Can anyone report on how good this one is compared to the latest v.275 that's on the Microsoft Connect website? It takes FOREVER to uninstall it so hopefully someone whos tried both can tell me if it's worth installing this newer version. Thanks :)

You should always run the newest version of a SP1 Beta. It fixes things that were previously not working or not tweaked in previous versions.

Well that's the thing, I never had ANY problems with the older version and my system already felt so much snappier... If the latest version of SP1 didn't change all that much over the v.275, it'd be better to save me from the hassle of waiting forever for the thing to uninstall, install it again and just wait for the final...

i cant seem to download is there something special i have to do?

You follow the instructions?

There are 3 updates you need to DL off windows update (each one is seperate).

After downloading 1, reboot, rerun update, download next, reboot, etc. Finally after the 3rd, you'll see sp1 there

It's not on Connect yet. Meh. I'll just wait until it is. Thanks for the heads up anyway.

I dont think it will be on there anytime soon. Never is, they did the same thing before. Everyone known to man had a build by getting it from other sources and the testers are left without it.

i dunno about you guys but my fresh install (installed Sunday NOvember 11th) still feels faster than before. I haven't even had a chance to install all my software yet. So this was just installed and i installed the beta 1 day after so i can definitely say there's an improvement. Also some show stopper bugs in v.275 is the reason why i formatted back to RTM. NOw back on Beta and i love it so far :)

    • For the purpose that it was built for, it’s a great machine. It’s okay to own multiple machines, it’s okay for machines to be different. If every computer was the same, they’d be boring af.
    • OpenAI is rolling out a major upgrade to ChatGPT memory by Pradeep Viswanathan OpenAI is rolling out a major upgrade to ChatGPT's memory, making the system more capable, current, and scalable across long-term use. Memory allows ChatGPT to remember useful details about users, including their preferences, projects, and constraints. Instead of starting every conversation from scratch, ChatGPT can use this context to provide more relevant responses in future chats. OpenAI first launched saved memories in February 2024. That feature allowed users to explicitly ask ChatGPT to save information into its memory, such as travel plans or writing preferences. However, this system had limits because it depended heavily on users giving clear instructions to remember something. Additionally, saved memories could become stale over time. In April 2025, OpenAI expanded memory by allowing ChatGPT to reference past chat context outside the saved memories list. This was powered by a background process called “dreaming,” which automatically curates memories from chat history. This made ChatGPT better at learning from natural conversation without requiring users to manually save every detail. Today, OpenAI announced a more capable and compute-efficient memory architecture built on top of dreaming. This new system improves ChatGPT’s ability to carry forward useful context, follow user preferences, and remain accurate as time passes. According to OpenAI’s internal evaluations, the new system improves factual recall from 67.9% in 2025 to 82.8% in 2026. Preference adherence improves from 55.3% to 71.3%, while accuracy over time improves from 52.2% to 75.1%. The best part of this new system is a new memory summary page where users can review ChatGPT's memories. Users can even update details, correct information, or give instructions on what topics ChatGPT should bring up and when. This new, improved memory system is available to ChatGPT Plus and Pro users in the US starting today. It will roll out to more countries, as well as Free and Go users, in the coming weeks.
    • I work for a video production company in Australia. The camera operators shoot footage and then pass the SD card over to the editors. Much easier than handing over the entire camera. Plus, on a busy day you can hand off the SD card and then pop another in for the next shoot. Or, you might have used multiple SD cards because you need the extra space for a long shoot. I also use USB cables and wifi for transferring footage, but in many cases an SD card reader is the easiest method.
