This build is quite nice... even for it being in a VM Session. Right now listening to the default music in it... slight crackling, but overall.. NICE.

I'm betting this will be quite nice once they are finished with it. The new sounds are nice, and it's pretty smooth overall.

Hi there, I'm new and am just wondering if there would be any difficulties in installing 7 Beta on a new partition, and dual-booting with an existing XP build? And then, once the Beta expires, being able to remove 7 and the partition without doing any damage to XP. Thanks in advance. :)

Yes you can do that with an Appy called Vista Boot Pro. It is easy.

Ahh, I think you might be right there - I jumped the gun a bit :D

Do they host private betas with Connect participants, rather than just testing these development builds internally (like I thought)?

Sorry for the slow response, I had to run an errand. I'm a TechNet subscriber and Connect tester. No, we haven't seen any new bits since 7000 officially. Of course internal, TAP, ISV, invited private testers, etc, get new builds virtually every day.

I bet 7060 will be official RC.

Internal folks are already at a higher build than that. They are probably at 7062 today.

Since we're guessing on the RC build number, I say it will be 7077. However, I heard that the build on Mar.10th was locked down in escrow for RC, that would be 7060. So, you may be right. ;)

I was previously on Windows Vista Home Premium. And this is my first time using Windows 7.

So everything works well except I feel that something is blocking or hindering my torrent speed. Anyone else experience this? I usually get about 700 KB/s to 1Mb/s on my vista. But after switching to Windows 7. There seem to be a huge drop on speed..

Anyone else notice this?

Hello .. my problem is that the following ...

I installed this new build 7057

only I'm not able to give the note to my computer ...

This error appears when I try to give the note to the computer

How solve this problem?

To solve this:

- Open Start. Type "devmgmt.msc" (without quotes) and hit Enter.

- Expand "Disk drives," and double click on the hard drive Windows 7 is installed on.

- Click the Policies tab. Make sure "Enable write caching on the device" is checked, then click OK.

- Try the Windows Experience Index check again.

indows can not evaluate the note to my computer ...

ok go to "computer" right click on the hard drive, click on properties.

click on the hardware tab

then you should see your hard drive(s) in there, click on it and go properties

click on Change settings (bottom left)

click on the Policies and make sure that "Enable write caching on the device"

and that "turn off windows...." is NOT turned ticked

Question for you guys, how do you know this? You scream at us that we are worng, well, how do you know your right? you could be worng to.. none of us knows for sure

Because technet subscribers are already past this build by SEVERAL compiles... You guys are so funny, you see the EULA and winver say RC and you just automatically say that this is the rc version, it must be..

Ive been around for many betas and was apart of the windows 98 beta. Every time i see the same thing, except now there are 1000's more noobs.

    • Linux 7.1 arrives with an NTFS overhaul and major hardware performance boosts by Paul Hill The founder of the Linux kernel has just announced the availability of Linux 7.1. This is a stable version of the kernel that will now be tested by various Linux distributions before it is shipped to users through update managers. Some users, like those on Debian, for example, might not get it for a long time, if at all, while Fedora users can expect it in the near future. With Linux 7.1 out on time, the merge window for Linux 7.2 is now open, giving contributors the opportunity to send in major new features that have been waiting for the last two months. Torvalds warned that he is currently travelling and will be in another timezone, so timing for the merge window may be irregular due to timezone differences and limited internet access. Torvalds said that he has already fetched early pull requests to allow him to do some offline work, but the travel could still cause disruption. Right now, he is not planning to extend the release, but did consider it. He said he might later regret not extending, though. In terms of this last week of development for Linux 7.1, Torvalds said there were no major or alarming changes. This week consisted mostly of smaller driver updates to GPU, networking, and sound, networking fixes, trace tooling fixes, and misc minor fixes. The shortlog this week lists fixes for driver bugs, memory leaks, I/O and USB fixes, networking and RDMA fixes, DRM/graphics fixes, and tooling and verification improvements. Specific fixes include USB series heap-overflow and buffer overflow fixes, and multiple use-after-free, memory-leak, and refcount corrections across subsystems such as i2c, zram, gpio, and net. There are fixes for graphics drivers, including amdgpu, i915, and virtio, as well as hypervisor and virtualization tweaks affecting mshv, vmbus, and hyperv. According to Phoronix, anyone running Linux 7.1 should look out for the new NTFS driver, Intel FRED for improved performance on Panther Lake and future CPUs, faster graphics with Intel Arc Battlemage, and improvements for older AMD Radeon GPUs. If you are running Linux on your computer and everything is fine, then you don’t need to worry about updating to Linux 7.1 as a priority; just wait for it to be pushed to you. If you have tried Linux on hardware but it didn’t work properly, trying again with a distro that uses Linux 7.1 could cause Linux to work on your machine, thanks to the new hardware support.
    • you can also do this with this tool: PowerSettingsExplorer made by mbk1969 at 3dguru forum.. I found it by accident researching on modern standby and annoying quirks of it in 2022
