I'm just going to run the setup file as is without creating an ISO to mount or burn a dvd. Can't get simpler than that. Basically the current 7000 x64 partition will be overwritten and moved to windows.old, which can be deleted by running disk cleanup.

The uploader did the same thing, which is why he might have unpacked it. Who knows. At best we could have checked the MD5 of the ISO to verify it, but not a big deal.

So I can just copy the files on a mem stick and boot up with the mem stick and do a fresh install from that? No need for bootfiles etc.?

Yep, as long as the stick is properly formatted, you will be able to boot and install from it.

Is it possible to Upgrade build 7000 to 7048 or to do a repair/reinstall which would keep my settings and applications in tact. I know Microsoft said they would allow upgrades with the RC and the Retail so there could be a smooth transition from beta to final without having to reinstall XP or Vista.

I don't think I could stand going back to vista, and some of the "Quirks" of build 7000 are starting to bother me. As a designer, I appreciate the changes build 7022 and 7048 brought over 7000 UI wise...

I just right clicked it and chose format(quick). That should do it right, or do I need to format it in ntsf?

Don't use NTFS on a memory stick :)

(That said, i don't know if it would or would not work with NTFS; but generally Fat32 or exFat is preferred on memory sticks due to the large overhead due to NTFS)

I'm not done downloading yet, but i can successfully start the installer, and the "Upgrade" button isn't greyed out as one would expect, whether or not it actually works, or it works as it should do, i don't know.

You need to make the partition active

Check out these instruction for Vista

http://kurtsh.spaces.live.com/blog/cns!...!1665.entry

just use: list disk

to make sure you select the right disk (i guess you know what can happen if you format the wrong one)

Also, before you start copying, make sure the device is set to Better Performance in Device Manager (or else copying will take forever). Just remember to safely remove.

I know I'll be rebuilding the ISO even though the "upgrade" method looks simple enough. I may be adding more of a hassle to the process but I trust a clean install from a disk more than an upgrade.

What program do you recommend for doing just that?

MagicISO or CDImage would do the job nicely. Here's a step by step guide on how to make a bootable Vista DVD with CDImage but it should work with Windows 7.

1. Put the three files (the .WIMs and the .exe) in the same folder or directory. Let?s make the example that the three files all in the C:\ root.

2. Run the .EXE file. A new folder named Vista will be created and it will contain a lot of files. These are the setup files.

3. Exit from the install Windows screen.

4. Download CDimage and install it.

5. Click start on your desktop, open Run and type ?cmd?. A command prompt shell will appear.

6. Type: cdimage.exe -lVISTA_EN_DVD -m -u2 -bC:\Vista\boot\etfsboot.com C:\Vista\ C:\Vistax86.iso.

A bootable Windows Vista x86 DVD ISO image will be created as vistax86.iso in C:\.

7. Burn the ISO image by using a burning software such as Nero. To avoid any error make sure to burn at a 2X or 4X speed.

Me thinks this 7048 build is real but tampered with to install malicious code. No iso and install.wim must have been modified to inject some non-Microsoft code...

You're wrong. Stop spreading malicious rumors. :no:

@scratch42069

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.

    • Valve finally confirms Steam Machine prices, starts at $1049 for 512GB option

      By Zeromus2003 · Posted

      Not sure there is good value here.... the only real choice is 2GB w/ Controller since 1. 512GB would disappear fast based on today's PC game installs 2. Controller is back ordered until 2027. The appeal of playing PC games on TV (along with PS5) sounds interesting, but I am not too lazy to fire up the huge PC either. Not really sure this would be "worth" it.

      Because we were never offered a UFC game to review it in the past. Sometimes it's not a conspiracy, the reviewer does not even live in the U.S. and didn't ask for it.

    • Apple releases iOS 27 Beta 2 for developers and power users

      By Aditya Tiwari · Posted

      Apple releases iOS 27 Beta 2 for developers and power users by Aditya Tiwari It's been a couple of weeks since Apple previewed the iOS 27 update during the WWDC official keynote. The upcoming iOS version will bring even more refinements to the Liquid Glass design language, an upgraded Siri AI assistant, and several new Apple Intelligence features. Interestingly, the latest WWDC keynote was different than previous years. Apple has released the iOS 27 beta 2 (build 24A5370h) for developers who want to test the new features being baked for the iPhone and optimize their apps. If you're interested in downloading the latest beta, go to Settings > General > Software Update > beta Updates, then choose iOS 27 Developer Beta. You can download the latest iOS 27 beta on more than 30 supported iPhones. Make sure you know what you are doing since developer betas can be unstable and unexpected at times. If you want to be on the safer side, you can wait for the public beta, which will arrive next month. It's been a while since Apple discontinued its AirPort router lineup. Now, the company said in the iOS 27 beta 2 release notes that the AirPort Utility is deprecated and won't be available for new downloads from the App Store. Apple added that if you previously downloaded the app, you can re-download it. However, the functionality isn't guaranteed when using the AirPort Utility on iOS 27 or later. Speaking of known issues, Apple said that the Portrait mode blur effect might render incorrectly for photos; you may be unable to stop an alarm from the lock screen without unlocking your iPhone; the "Add a Control" button in Control Center edit mode might appear small or clipped. There are several new features in iOS 27 beta 2 as well. It comes with Neural Engine improvements for Apple Intelligence, including better performance when loading large models over 1GB. HomeKit Secure Video recordings are processed on-device and through Private Cloud Compute for video descriptions and search, when Apple Intelligence is enabled in the Home app. That said, you can also download the second betas of macOS 27 Golden Gate, iPadOS 27, watchOS 27, and other Apple operating systems.
