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.

    • Hey Google, these are the Gemini features I want in 2026

      By Snake Doc · Posted

      I used a Pixel 10 Pro XL when it first came out for about 8 months. When I first got it, it was using Google assistant and that was fast, when asking it to call somone etc. Then it automatically switched with some update to Gemini. Doing even the simplist of things like asking it to call someone in my contacts was soooooo slow compared to Google assistant. I guess it had to go out to the cloud to do that? Back on iPhone and while Siri is dumb right now, it does do those simple things, like call someone, set a timer, star the stop watch etc, really fast. That an while I like Google Material Design 3 over iOS 26, they Pixel 10 Pro XL was so slow in comparison to the iPhone 17 Pro I am using.

      I use Gemini in my rotation of AI clients...that work pays for. It is good at most things, better than copilot for imgage searching and making images, worse at writing vs Claude and way worse at hadling technical issues when it comes to Azure stuff. I also use YT premium and maps. Anything else Google is a pass for me. I have now seen multiple people locked out of their Google accounts for reasons that are just very vauge.
    • Microsoft is building an AI datacenter that "uses less water than a fast food restaurant"

      By Ivan Jenic · Posted

      Microsoft is building an AI datacenter that "uses less water than a fast food restaurant" by Ivan Jenic Image: Microsoft Microsoft has announced plans to build a new datacenter campus in Pecos, Texas, as the company continues to invest billions in AI infrastructure. The new facility, called project Kilby, will reportedly have a capacity of 2 gigawatts and will be one of the largest single capacity additions in the company’s history. To power the campus, Microsoft signed a 20-year deal with Chevron to supply natural gas from the Permian Basin, America's largest oil field. This deal is set to become the largest collaboration to date between a U.S. oil and gas giant and Big Tech. It’s no secret that Big Tech has often been criticized for exploiting natural resources for its AI developments. Microsoft is trying to mitigate some of that negative consensus by promising to build its own power supply for the new datacenter, independent of the public grid. The Pecos datacenter will be powered by a power plant hub, built by Chevron, with up to 2.5 gigawatts of gas-fired capacity, with potential to scale to up to 5 gigawatts. The facility will include at least seven GE Vernova turbines, with first power potentially coming online as early as late 2027 or early 2028. The power plant hub is part of an approximately $7 billion investment by Chevron, making it one of the largest dedicated energy projects tied to a single datacenter campus in the U.S. Microsoft hasn’t publicly disclosed the amount it’s investing in the new datacenter. Microsoft has also committed to implementing a closed-loop cooling system that will only require an initial water charge to operate. The company said that “the total lifecycle water use of this datacenter is only a fraction of that consumed annually by a typical fast-food restaurant.” What the press release doesn’t mention, however, is how much water the natural gas plant itself will consume, or how a 20-year fossil fuel commitment squares with the company's pledge to be carbon negative by 2030. The construction of the new datacenter should provide over 6,000 construction jobs at peak build-out, and create hundreds of operational job roles once the facility is built. Via: Reuters
