I think I mentioned it before but what I don't like about windows 7, this build has the same issue, is that in Vista, if I wanted notepad or power options I could search in the start menu, it would be the first option in the list, hit enter and I'm done. I search for "note" and power. In Win7 note=sticky note and power=powershell. Its a seriously minor issue, but one that really irritates me.

Also, has anyone managed to get steam to work with it? I havent.

I think it remembers your preference - so if you search for note and then manually click "Notepad" from the list a couple of times, itll display that one first from then on so you can just hit enter.

Thats just a theory though, I am pretty sure it existed even in Vista, but not sure if Ive ever really needed it - for the same reason you have that its always just been at the top of the list!

Someone proove me right/wrong?

You're right, that's why I'm just going to have to test it out in a virtual machine or see if i can manage to get it to install on my computer. :)

If not having 32bit is a problem, how is using a virtual machine going to help? You have to be using 64bit Windows to virtualize a 64bit OS.

You must give a try to Virtual Box then, from version 2.1 you can get a 64bits guess OS in a 32bits one

I will be patient, i would rather not take the time downloading over half of the ISO and it doesn't end up working. I'm sure the 32bit will be released by latest, Sunday. :)

what seems 2 hav changed in 7048 is when i click on the pinned libraries icon it wont open a new window again, just bring back in front the one which is already open. i liked the old behavior much better.

I could of sworn they removed or said they were going to remove the classic Windows theme. Why is it back again? :s

I don't recall this ever being stated, nor was it ever removed from any Windows 7 build. The fact is, Windows Classic is there for fallback reasons. Machines that can't run Aero can always run Windows Classic. (Think of it like an emergency GUI.) Also, while some do prefer the look overall, it's also still the de facto GUI for all Windows Server releases.

Yes it was removed in Pre-Beta's and Beta build 7000 but people would have requested it to come back, i like the classic start menu :D

Steam works fine for me, but I had to download the installer from the site.

I upgraded from 7000 and steam worked straight from the upgrade (like it should have)....not sure why anyone would be having problems with steam not working...

I found a torrent but low seeds.

I got mine in 4 hours from Demonoid......the original, non-ISO one that is....

I goggled "7048 x86 download", one the very first page there is a good target.

That site gave 4~5 links, all posted on 3-5, but what's curious are the sizes, all under 1G(????)

Any ideas ????

Those are fakes!!! Don't click on them.

Yes I get the same.

Change preview delay

HKEY_CURRENT_USER --> Control Panel--> Mouse --> MouseHoverTime

change 400 to 50 or less, restart.

    • I hope this encodes in to AV1 or AV2 as currently tiktok uses h265 and h264.
    • Qualcomm reportedly in talks to build custom video chips for TikTok parent ByteDance by Karthik Mudaliar Qualcomm is reportedly in advanced discussions to provide custom chip-design services to Chinese tech giant ByteDance, the same company behind TikTok. According to a report from Reuters, Qualcomm could be involved in designing custom silicon tailored for ByteDance's massive data-center workloads. If it goes through, the deal would make ByteDance one of Qualcomm's early anchor customers for its fastly growing custom chip-design division, For years, Qualcomm was the king of making smartphone processors and modems. The company has also been moving into the PC ecosystem and other formats such as on-device AI for Android XR headsets. However, this particular deal is about Qualcomm's custom Application-Specific Integrated Circuits (ASICs). For a platform like TikTok, ByteDance needs hardware that can help it ingest, process, and serve billions of short-form videos daily. Generalised hardware is no longer the most cost-effective and efficient route, which is why ByteDance is trying to develop custom Video Processing Units (VPUs). VPUs designed specifically for ByteDance’s algorithmic needs could drastically reduce data-center power consumption and improve encoding speeds at an unprecedented scale. The underlying tech behind these processors is actually from Qualcomm's recent acquisition of AlphaWave Semi, a high-speed connectivity specialist company. By combining AlphaWave’s high-bandwidth IP with Qualcomm’s architectural expertise, the company could begin mass production by the end of 2026, if the talks go through. All this also comes at a time when U.S.-China tech relations have dwindled. Escalating trade frictions between Washington and Beijing have severely impacted the export of high-end AI chips from U.S. firms like Nvidia, AMD, and Lam Research. Yet, the Qualcomm-ByteDance discussions show that U.S. tech companies are still actively seeking growth avenues and are open to doing business with China, where regulators still permit. Reuters notes that the outcome of this deal could be uncertain, and ByteDance might also seek partners other than Qualcomm. via Reuters | Image via DepositPhotos.com
