Me thinks I have the right to voice my opinion and concerns... :cry: During the Vista beta 4 years ago, similar leaks caused disasters...

Feel free to voice your opinion, but DiamondNRG is a respected individual. I know him from testing Trillian Astra (eventually gave up on Astra) and is still very involved . So it would be wrong to question his intentions as he is going out on a limb to seed this right now.

Four years ago when "leaking" fakes was relatively easy to do, but times have changed. Just take the example of someone trying to convince us 7056 was real today. It is just way too easy to determine what is real and what is not with all the screenshots and digital sigs to look at. I already have the setup file downloaded and everything in the properties seems to match what we know about 7048 so far. In short, this 7048 is real. Now it is up to you to decide whether you want to download or not.

What are you on about? There was never any dodgy builds.

Who knows? Sometimes bad effects appear days after install and sometimes users (and anti-virus programs) don't detect them. Leakers make a living by spreading this and the beta build serves as the 'sweet shell' to lure users...

Yeah I see that now, but when you don't put quotes around what you're saying when you copy paste it really sounds like you're the one saying that. That's what the "Quote" option is for.

Plus, your English is poor so I'll give the benefit of the doubt.

I actually understood exactly what he was saying, you just need to take the time to read before you go accusing people of things.. seriously.

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.

Thanks for a better guide to rebuilding the ISO :) That'll be the way I do it when my download finishes.

How extreme.

I don't believe it though.

LOL it's okay :)

I did say its not from me and I guess they didnt really understand.. sooo nevermind lol.

Hmm I also think you actually need a PhD in English to post this forum? LOL

Definitely looking forward to when this finishes downloading, FedEx just dropped off all the parts for my new Core i7 system and I'm looking forward to doing a fresh install of what is likely to be the Win7 RC for it =)

If Windows 7 works fine on a netbook, which it does, it would be more impressive if the i7 was being used with Vista....

7 isn't that resource hungry to want or require an i7.

The i7 itself is impressive. Neat design.

I am not going to be discouraged in installing 7048 just because the Windows Experience Index does not work. It could just be bug, or more likely it is probably an incompatility with something running on his system.

Like I noted in my previous post, I trust DiamondNRG. So nothing to worry about.

An RC with this error? Thats intresting... This is the RC, are you sure? Cause I just thinking, the 7050 will be the RC, because the public beta build was a round number too (7000)....

How does Aero work then? I thought it was dependant on WEI scores?

Aero can be turned on automatically when the WEI checks the system score is above a certain number. But, it can also be manually turned on if the graphics drivers have been installed without updating the WEI score.

Netbooks aren't 64-bit.

So?

WEI isn't that big of a deal. As long as there aren't any show stopping bugs that render 7048 useless for common use than I'll install it anyway.

Slideshow animations depend on the WEI score. Windows Live Photo Gallery will default to lame none accelerated slideshows :(

That sucks, looks like people who use Live Photo Gallery are in for a fun time with 7048. I'm lucky, I don't use it regularly.

    • I'm too old to return to the "good old days" when I was installing custom ROMs and tinkering with my devices - now I just want to turn it on and use it. I've read that banking and payment apps work on Murena /e/OS (I'll have to check the ones I use) and I also really want to support Fairphone 😉

    • NVIDIA announces 35 new AI HPC supercomputers across Europe by Fiza Ali NVIDIA has announced that 35 AI high-performance computing (HPC) supercomputers are planned to open throughout Europe this year. This marks what the company describes as the largest single-year expansion of AI infrastructure in the history of the continent. These new systems, unveiled at ISC High Performance 2026, will be placed at a number of national supercomputing centres, AI factories, and research institutes to provide advanced computing resources to more than three million researchers. Describing AI, NVIDIA founder and CEO Jensen Huang stated, "AI is the new instrument of science, and Europe is building the infrastructure to put it in the hands of millions of researchers." Built on NVIDIA's Blackwell and Hopper architectures, the new systems will support research in climate science, healthcare, clean energy, quantum computing, and other scientific fields. Among the major projects are the Barcelona Supercomputing Center's MareNostrum 5 AI upgrade, BavariaAI's Blue Swan platform in Germany, Italy's IT4LIA AI factory, Germany's HammerHAI project, and Sweden's Mimer AI Factory. The Barcelona Supercomputing Center plans to expand MareNostrum 5 with NVIDIA GB300 NVL72 and GB200 NVL4 systems. In total, the BSC expects to deliver up to 20 exaflops of AI training performance and 33 exaflops of AI inference performance. This increased computational capability will support research efforts related to climate modelling, biotechnology, energy systems, etc. Furthermore, as part of the IT4LIA project, more than 8,000 GPUs, each based on NVIDIA’s GB200 NVL4 architecture, will be used in Italy. This represents one of the largest AI factory initiatives announced to date. Additionally, the Blue Swan platform from BavariaAI will include about 1,000 GPUs to help develop multimodal AI models for use in the medical field, robotics, and various areas of scientific research. NVIDIA also emphasized in the announcement how rapidly growth of accelerated computing usage is taking place within both energy and climate-related research. The company said Siemens Energy uses NVIDIA-powered technologies to significantly accelerate the process of designing and simulating hydrogen-capable gas turbines. Using those same acceleration technologies, Siemens was able to reduce simulation time by up to 77 percent. The company also highlighted several quantum computing initiatives across Europe. CINECA, EuroHPC, and Pasqal are integrating a quantum processing unit into Italy's CINECA supercomputing centre using NVIDIA's CUDA-Q platform. Meanwhile, researchers at Germany's Julich Supercomputing Centre recently simulated a universal 50-qubit quantum computer on the JUPITER supercomputer. The announcement demonstrates Europe's continued commitment to building out its infrastructure supporting AI and supercomputing as governments, research organizations, and technology companies compete to build out their respective computing capacities and secure their positions in advanced scientific research.
