Inctye Posted February 8, 2009 Share Posted February 8, 2009 1 month worth of work is definitely worth a reinstall. (Beta ###### :p) Well let us know what else is good. Reinstalling every month is just too much work for me, unless the computer is so screwed up that there is no other choice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

George P Global Moderator Posted February 8, 2009 Global Moderator Share Posted February 8, 2009 There's gotta be performance/speed improvements at the least. I'll stick with 7000 also, but it's still interesting to see what they've done in a month. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kyang Posted February 8, 2009 Share Posted February 8, 2009 that's also because aero is off. tbh people shouldn't post screenshots like that because it clearly isn't helpful when people don't know what they're looking at. I realize Aero's off, but that still doesn't explain how that little tint helps. From my use of build 7000, that tint becomes an added layer of translucent haze when Aero is on, and it's useful there since the icons in the notification area should be easily seen. But with translucency off, that tint no longer serves a purpose on an opaque background. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

x-byte Posted February 8, 2009 Share Posted February 8, 2009 I'm not sure, but it looks like UAC is set at a higher level now. It's set at the next highest as default. Here's a screenshot And here's the light blue action bar or what ever it's called. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Access Denied Posted February 8, 2009 Share Posted February 8, 2009 Thats insane! I do mine every 2/3 years. LOL, I've done it 2-3 times in one day on several occasions. Sometimes it just doesn't feel right. I'll do it if I have about 2 hours to spare to reload what few apps I need. The UAC is set to the same in my 7000 beta 1 build by default also;);) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gate1975mlm Posted February 8, 2009 Share Posted February 8, 2009 Well now that we know it's leaked, i'll be installing it shortly (like 30mins!! :) ) Anyone else installed it yet and noticed anything new?

hurtz777 Posted February 8, 2009 Share Posted February 8, 2009 Does Media Center seem faster and more stable with this build 7022? I wonder if the media center extender issue where the AC3 cuts out every few seconds is fixed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
