The 9.2 driver works fine, what doesn't work is CCC. I can't get it to work, I get a crash error saying that CCC isn't compatible with the current version of driver.

Works fine for me as well here, no problems whatsoever. I did a fresh install of 7048.

Thanks.

Hi,

Driver sound max for audio integrated (Analog Devices AD1986A @ nVIDIA nForce 430 (MCP51) - High Definition Audio Controller PCI)

NOT work :o :blink:

In the build 7022...working normally...

Very compliments MS!

My system is not most recent (athlon 64 3,2 , 2 gb of RAM drr 400, Nvidia 8400 and HD WDC 320 GB... ), but respect an XP (in absolute the better operating system than MS) and to Linux. Vista and Seven turn out to be truly and uselessly abnormal!

build pre beta WAS NOT so, indeed the opposite one, seemed the carried out one!

Overall 7048 is running good. I have noticed some bugs though. But hey, it's a beta right?

1) WEI is not reliable and very buggy.

2) Shutdown and restart takes over 5 minutes and does not complete successfully.

3) Dell TouchPad driver is not working right.

4) I have to supply username and password still after re-booting for mapped drives in a workgroup.

i have a problem with copy-pasting. dunno whether it a known issue.

my problem is, i cant copy/cut - paste any file on folder in Libraries (documents/music...)

i have to open up that particular folder to paste the content.

You guys must be mad testers because I have yet to experience any bugs with 7048. Actually, there was one. Remember the right-click problem in Vista where if you right clicked a file and it would function as if you were right clicking an empty area? I think I got that a few times

Is there a problem like memory leaks in this build?? Because after using it for around 10mins my laptop slows to an almighty crawl and I have to re-start.

Never had anything like this on 7022 or 7000. :( Might have to drop back to 7022 for now.

The only problem I have is that this build does not recognize my Intel imsm RAID controller and I think this is causing my WEI rating to go down too, other than that I miss the "BladeRunner" font which is gone in this build, The new method to strech and shrink the superbar is awesome, very good Microsoft.

It's hard to explain for me, you would have to see it to understand it, maybe I didn't use the right words, the thing is that now you can fit a lot more icons on the superbar and as it fills it starts to automatically shrink or contract so that more items fit, eventually you will get the little arrows that help you navigate to the new row of items in the superbar when you add too many icons to it though.

I have this ability in 7000 today.

Not really, in 7000 you had a set number of icons you can add and when it fills out you see the arrows, now it takes many more items for the arrows to show, and as you add icons or open programs you can actually see the superbar visually strecthing or shrinking.

iTunes is acting odd, AGAIN.

It's got a mind of its own, sometimes it opens, sometimes I could click the icon for ages and nothing appears.

Task manager shows its there and taking up 23,080k. That never increases and it should be more. I end the process and try again and again. It always hits 23,xxx usage and we know it should be higher.

I just tried to understand but if you don't mind, any chance for a video on youtube ? :p

So is this build going to be the RC?

No, the UAC issue still hasn't been fixed in this build and it definitely cant be RC... Its sort of pre-RC build for internal testers

Ah right, thanks. I think I'll skip it then until a build leaks thats definitely the RC, or just get the RC. Now the main question is whether to go 32 or 64bit.

    • Latest Rufus update improves new Windows 11 install method

      By TarasBuria · Posted

      Latest Rufus update improves new Windows 11 install method by Taras Buria Pete Batard, the maker of Rufus, a very popular app for creating bootable Windows (and other OS) media, has released a new beta version of its app. Rufus 4.15 beta is now out, and while it offers no new features, there are all sorts of improvements and fixes, including for the new Windows 11 installation method that was introduced in version 4.14 in early May. The "Silent Windows 11 installation" is a new feature whose goal is to automate operating system installation. All you have to do is boot from the drive, and then Rufus takes over, doing all things for you, such as setting up a new account, skipping ads and prompts, and more. It is a very handy tool, but initially, it had some bugs and issues that required addressing. With version 4.15 beta, Rufus is fixing that, particularly a bug with installation failing at 75%, crashes on Snapdragon X-based PCs, and more. Here is the changelog: Rufus 4.15 beta is now available for download from its GitHub repository. If you have never used Rufus before, you can check out our guide here. It is a very useful utility to have, as it allows you to deal with plenty of Windows 11's annoyances, which are still there, despite Microsoft's ongoing efforts to fix them.
    • Microsoft fixes one of Excel Copilot's most frustrating limitations

      By Usama Jawad96 · Posted

      Microsoft fixes one of Excel Copilot's most frustrating limitations by Usama Jawad Microsoft began integrating Copilot into Excel a couple of years ago and has been upgrading it with new functionalities since then. While some changes have been controversial, Microsoft is hoping to win over users by allowing them to be more productive via Copilot. To that end, it has now announced a Copilot improvement that may actually be appreciated by people who use it regularly. Excel customers often use the Copilot prompt box to issue instructions to format and customize their data, but it can become quite tiring to keep repeating the same instructions again and again. Microsoft now allows you to define Copilot personalization rules for formatting, naming conventions, formulas, and report styles. These can be accessed via Settings > Personalization, where you can explain your rules in natural language like "Always format currency in USD with no decimals", and just let Copilot take care of the rest. Microsoft is going a step further in this direction by allowing you to set workbook rules too. These rules are stored as a .Rules sheet, and are preserved while the workbook is shared. This fosters collaboration while making sure that standard rules govern the Copilot editing experience across the organization. Other advantages of this capability include pointing it to specific examples, defining dynamic formulas, and referencing an entire sheet and asking Copilot to infer rules based on that. You can leverage this feature by opening Copilot in Excel, clicking on "+", and selecting Create workbook rules. If you have an existing .Rules sheet, you can simply start listing the rules in column A as well. Personalization features are available to all Copilot in Excel users across the web, Mac, and Windows. Meanwhile, workbook rules are currently being previewed for Windows and Mac customers on the Insiders channel. General availability is scheduled after a few weeks, but a concrete date is currently unknown. Overall, the Excel capability is quite similar to ChatGPT's memory features, which allow you to permanently store items in the AI model's context window.

    • Millions of users to benefit from Windows 11's new performance boost on Adobe Photoshop

      By thartist · Posted

      This sounds like underneath the nice marketing spin, either someone at Adobe got tired of their lazy devs and asked Microsoft to help them sort at least some of Adobe's ancestral spaghetti code to make it go faster, or Microsoft wanted Adobe's crap to run better on Windows to make it look better when compared to Apple, so they offered to intervene. Either way, GOOD.
    • My favorite file manager for Windows 11 finally gets a long-requested feature

      By TarasBuria · Posted

      My favorite file manager for Windows 11 finally gets a long-requested feature by Taras Buria Files is among the best File Explorer alternatives for Windows 10 and 11. This free app is packed with all sorts of features and conveniences, but there is one crucial feature that is still missing—Tree View. Fortunately, the latest update in the Preview channel finally delivers it. With version 4.1.4, which is now available for download in the Preview channel, developers implemented Tree View, a new mode that displays folders in an expandable hierarchy. Windows 11's stock File Explorer always had this feature, but it was nowhere to be found in Files until now. Starting with the latest preview update, you can expand each drive and its nested folders without leaving the current location and then open the folder you need in the main view. To try Tree View in Files, update the app to the latest preview version, then click the small arrow next to a drive to expand its content. The developers say they are rolling out Tree View in Preview first to gather feedback from users and improve the feature before bringing it to all in the stable channel. In addition to Tree View, Files 4.1.14 improves the Windows Fonts folder. You can now preview each font directly in Files with no need to open the built-in font viewer. For now, these two features are only available in the Preview channel. For those using the stable release, developers recently released version 4.1.3, with improvements for the built-in tag system, on-demand folder size calculation, and plenty of various fixes. You can check out the full release notes here. You can download Files from the Microsoft Store (paid version) or its official website (free).
