"7068 does have something new under-the-hood"

Probably, can't wait to get it installed. :woot:

"...and it's a lot better than Vista which was nothing but a big mistake."

I do think 7 is better than Vista. However, Vista was NOT any kind of mistake. :wacko:

Does anybody know if this WMP bug is in the x64 build also? More WMP bugs....=\. When you press the next song button in the thumbnail, it skips two songs everytime. I'm wanting to go back to 7057....

I would assume it happens in the 64 bit version too but I can confirmed it happens to me too as does the pause button bug.

Yeah, confirmed! :s

If you pay close attention, it does pause.. for a fraction of a second, then plays.

What it seems like is using the thumbnail pause (or play button) is issuing two commands instead of just one.

fake edit: yeah, that is what is happening.

The same thing happens if you use the skip forward button.. if you're on song one, it doesn't go to song two (I'm talking about the media player default songs), it skips to song 3.

Anyone else get this message in action center in 7068? So there's a problem here, or the action center updated for the future antivirus programs?

(and when I installed this build, it tell me that I have only 3 days for activation)

Oh and the games explorer got new icon

I'm using ESET Smart Security 4.0 and I do not get that message. Have you tried upgrading to the newest version 4.0?

Change log?

Worth upgrading from 7057?

Its very much worth upgrading. Why not? Its not like you have to format. This build has fixed many of my issues and it might fix any issues you may have as well. Also, this build is much faster for me.

Exactly how I feel. Been having a few windows explorer hangs in 7057 and before that. So far, have not had any hangs on 7068, which is a good sign of how the builds continue to show improvement and reliability.

7068 isn't dropping my wireless connection randomly like 7057 did. WMP has a couple bugs from the thumbnail view buttons, but overall, I love this build. :p

Guess that explains why digsby was always disconnecting once in a while. Good to see it fixed too.

As noted earlier in this thread, there are apparently 3 leaks

<snip x86 ei.cfg confusion>

No such troubles with the x64 version, there's only the unmodified Ultimate version :cool:

The WinSat still has the same bug with Aero Graphics as in 7057, only 5.9 instead of 7.9 :pinch:

It seems they changed the gadget handling in 7068, because of my gadgets (Anime PC Meter) that worked fine in 7057 has some bugs in 7068 :(

- doesn't display properly (e.g. the outlines are shifted)

- flyouts don't work anymore

- constant cpu load of ~30% from that gadget alone, closing it stops it (see screenshot below)
