Can I be the first (of many) to ask how one would turn a folder full of installation files into a bootable DVD? Many people are going to want to try a clean installation of this build.

Put it on an external USB device like a Memory Stick or an External HDD i do this for Vista and 7 you dont need a boot file either.

For those wondering how to make this leaked version bootable simply replace \Sources\install.wim on the ISO for build 7000 with the install.wim file from the leaked copy. Then use this modified iso to install windows.

Using WinPE with imagex could apply the wim image but then again if you know how to do that I guess you would have figured it our for yourself + if you don't have it the WAIK to create a WinPE cd is 1.3GB.

Let the torrent complete and you will have the contents of Win7 build 7048 x64 DVD.

It's not hard to make it a bootable ISO. Get your hands on a copy of WinISO, MajicISO, or UltraISO. Load the Windows 7 build 7000 or 7022 x64 ISO file, delete the files in the ISO and copy in the files from 7048 x64 (torrent download), save the new ISO with a different name. Now you have a bootable ISO of build 7048 x64!!

The ISO file you save should display as "Bootable UDF" which means it includes the boot image from the original 7000 or 7022 ISO. Burn to DVD and install. Keys from the public beta of 7000 should work.

Slowed to a crawl at 60.6%. Can't wait for this to finish. NIS 2009 didn't work at all in 7022. Confirmed to be working in 7048.

thanks for the tip. it was really frustrating getting BSoD (tcpip.sys) error while installing NIS 2009 in 7022.

That's the route I was going to go for to avoid unnecessary complications. Thanks for the advice everyone.

I was asking for everybody, not just myself. Let's face it, until an ISO of this build becomes available this question will be asked again and again!

do you want a cookie? stop complaining... i uploaded 75gb of 7022 version before i got it down, i currently already uploaded for 24gb of 7048 version and im on 48%... do you see me complain? people like you makes me sick :< be happy that it seems we finaly got some reliable leak source, i rather wait a day and get new build, then wait for months and get nothing at all...

u upped 75gb 7022 b4 u got it down? see thats not normal, thats pervert and not the sense of it. if i want to DOWNLOAD something, i mean downloading. okay, uploading a few mb's here and there i wouldnt mind (and b4 u start another battle, i hav flatrate, so no problem that way) but wheres the sense of uploading way more than downloading it and wayting hours, days and weeks before a download finishes?

dunno why every1 loves torrents so much. they always sucked, always will. rapidshare, megaupload, etc. these 1 click file hosters are so much better. u can DOWNLOAD from there, and they are fast and reliable.

But unless you pay a subscription fee you are capped, cant use download managers, can only download a set amount before you have to wait.

The whole point of torrents is sharing not just being greedy and downloading what you want without uploading anything in return.

LOL so true! I guess mclaren is just living in his own little piny tiny world!

I hope this build runs better with iTunes. 7022 is just terrible.

Apple needs to up their game with iTunes on Windows. Native UI, take advantage of Aero UI Acceleration, the Windows 7 Libraries, as well as Taskbar Previews, Jumplists etc.

I wouldn't hold my breath. Even QuickTime on Windows is becoming irrelevant.

You can just load the 7000/7022 build, delete the .wim file in that iso and replace it with the one you are currently downloading. Burn it and be happy.

Ah...good to know thanks. Can I use one of the Beta keys to activate 7048 or am I stuck with a 30-day trial?

    • Likely nothing will be done in corporate America, there have been countless Tesla self-driving incidents. Then again, there have also been countless human operated incidents. It's literally daily news here in Canada, to the extent that it's now odd if we get a day where a collision doesn't get announced on the radio throughout the day...
    • SKG Hand Massager with Heat OS500 hands on by Steven Parker I was offered the chance to test out the SKG Hand Massager with Heat OS500, and full disclosure, they let me keep it regardless of my findings. Anyway, I jumped at the chance due to my long hours sitting at my desk, mousing around. Apologies for the knife cut across the top of the box; that was my doing, being a bit too heavy-handed with opening up the outer packaging. First up, what's in the box: SKG Hand Massager with Heat OS500 1x Type-C charging cable User Manual 1-Year Warranty (card) In short, everything you need to get started. According to the official Amazon listing, here are the key features: Full-Hand Air Compression: OS500 wraps your fingers, palm, and wrist with multi-chamber air compression for a complete hand relaxation experience. The extended massage chamber helps cover more of the hand and wrist area than standard palm-only hand massagers Palm Kneading with 6 Modes & 6 Intensities: Built-in palm kneading rollers add a hands-on massage feel, while 6 preset modes and 6 pressure levels let you choose the comfort level that fits your day—from gentle relaxation to a firmer full-hand massage 3 Heat Levels with Cooling Fan: Choose from 104°F, 113°F or 122°F warmth to suit different seasons and comfort preferences. The built-in cooling fan helps reduce stuffiness during heated sessions, keeping your hand feeling fresh and comfortable Easy Visual Display & Smart Timer: The digital image display clearly shows massage area, mode, intensity, heat level, and remaining time at a glance. Select 10, 15, or 20-minute sessions for quick office breaks, evening relaxation, or everyday hand care Rechargeable, Cordless & Comfortable: A 3000mAh battery supports over 90 minutes of full-function use on a full charge, with convenient USB-C charging. The soft inner lining, smooth ABS/PU finish, and premium black-gold design make OS500 ideal for home, office, or gifting With all that out of the way, here are my own findings. I gave it a try on both left and right hands, and as you can maybe see from the above YouTube Short, (sorry for the shaky video), my whole hand fits in, but my wrist barely enters the Hand Massager. I was able to push through a bit more with my fingertips extending out the other end to get a bit of massaging on the start of my wrist. Usage For some reason, there is a strap that is very difficult to fasten to my wrist with one hand. I am not sure what function it has, and it isn't mentioned in the user manual. The only thing I could find was in the product images that claimed "wrist precision". Unlike the Bob and Brad Hand Massager, this device does not massage the wrist anyway, even though a "wrist mode" is mentioned, which must be for smaller hands than I have, as it is mainly intended for the hand and fingers. In addition, for its steeper price, there are no disposable gloves provided in the box, which is a bit of an issue considering the internal cover (which appears to be elasticated nylon) cannot be removed for washing; so you are left with only one choice: always thoroughly wash your hands before using it. I can imagine this thing getting a bit grimy after a period of use, and that is a bit of a shame. With that said, the buttons on the device, from left to right, do the following: Heat button: 3-level heat control at 104°F, 113°F, or 122°F Mode button: Auto mode Circular mode Soothing mode Relax mode Palm and fingers mode Palm and wrist mode Intensity button: from (First-time users) 15Ka, 25Ka, 35Ka, 45Ka, 55Ka, 60Ka (Intensive relief) Knead button: on or off (6 pressure levels) Power button: Long-press to turn on or off Cooling button: turn on or off the cooling fan Also, in the product imagery, it states there are 36 "custom modes," but nowhere is it listed what these modes are. I can only imagine that they mean a combination of all of the above settings in different intensity levels. The device itself seems to rely on a single "kneading" mechanism located at the palm area of the hand, which spins when in use, and the other massage features are mainly utilized through the air sacs, increasing and decreasing at various levels on the hand and fingers. I am not sure it offered too much relief for someone who is typing and operating a mouse for hours at a time; further testing may be required. It does feel nice, though. Finally, you may be wondering how this fits into the scope of a tech website? Well, let me tell you something: sometimes I sit for up to 15 hours working on Neowin, and although I take breaks in between, it takes a toll on my body. I think in the immediate absence of a partner to apply relief, a good massager like this Hand Massager can shed the strains of the day in just a couple of 15-minute bursts. On the official website, this has an MSRP of $99.99, but luckily for our readers, it is selling at $10 off for just $89.99 right now on Amazon. SKG Hand Massager with Heat OS500 for $89.99 (with $10 off coupon), $99.99 MSRP For me, this gets a thumbs hands(?) down. However, it could be improved by making it so that the protective covering could be removed and thrown into the washing machine, or get yourself some disposable gloves to use with it.
