Windows 7 7106 x86 & x64 leaked

[crazlunatic]

Waiting for the official RC now - I'll be fed up with Win 7 by the time of RTM if this carries on :)

Public RC comes out in May!!!

[Luis Mazza]

Ya know... I was going to sleep and now I look like a zombie waiting for BRAAAINS.

Screw it. :crazy:

[atleeit]

will SOLAR1 come in here and say it still isn't going to come. I'm not saying it's real until i read someone who has fully d/l it.

x64 is 3.32GB

x86 is 2.6GB

ive found nothing.

Meh, each build I've installed has had some annoying bug that has made me fiend for a new build like crack. :p

revreddy: don't most of the winmain builds with the full build string in the watermark say "For testing purposes only" instead of "Evaluation copy"?

I think they put "evaluation copy" since 7077 was an escrow build. But for official public builds, they always use "for testing purposes only. Build 7xxx" without using the full string. Based on that picture alone, 7106 seems to be newer than what the public may get. Someone has to download it and confirm. Until that, we are zombies as atleeit said.

I will look at setup.exe dig signature and post a screeny if i can.

OK here's a pic of the setup.exe

I still don't know if anyone can release a legit build with or without it being properly signed, If someone edits 7106 build then the signature breaks, maybe this time is what happened? I cannot say i'm right.

Found this image posted as a comment from this other blog that says its confirmed fake.

Compare that pic to 7077 x64

[Inctye]

Any legit leaker would leave the digital sig and ISO itself untouched. If they modify it, then it signals it could either be a fake or some other malware might have been added. I'm going to call this one done and get some sleep.

[ontysseas]

wow what a news....

[atleeit]

x86 has no trackers

x64 has one tracker

i'll post a x64 setup dig sig in a minute

Possible both Chinese x86 and x64 have been modified, but don't know. Could be fake or real, someone will verify it, But here is what x86 and x64 look like.

Look forward to it :) This the Chinese build or English? I've managed to track down the Chinese build but no luck with my native tongue :p

That doesn't look too promising. :(

[LiquidSolstice]

thats why people should wait for the rc ;)

Exactly, I'm getting rather annoyed with having to get newer and newer builds. At the rate these builds are being pumped out, RC should be here in no time.

[heslo]

Well you don't HAVE to get new builds, you choose to. I'd rather be swamped with new builds than be starved of them but that's just me

[Windows7even]

that digital sig will save u alot of headache and re installation time...conficiker is still out there lurking

True, what I meant was that I did constantly get new builds all the time, but I finally settled with 7068, and am reading over the changelog and reviews the newest build, and I'm thinking hard before I get it this time.

I've been having some major issues with my wifi cutting out at high torrenting speeds, so I'm hoping "improved networking" fixes that.

Here is 7077 VS 7106 Pics

Possible picture is real, by the way i put this together in paint, but don't know about leaks. Still waiting till someone tests.

Why on earth someone would want to fake a Chinese build in Traditional and Simplified is beyond me when most of the population uses English builds. To me that would be wasting alot of time to create the fake, waste of Easter happiness lol.

Was every build including 7068 all digitally signatured even if the builds were modified?

If this ends up being real, ill stfu for ever, however i still cant see how it can be real.

[atleeit]

The below images are my system VS supposibly 7106 version in Simplified Chinese, don't know if it's real, let's wait abit longer.

Just because it's not on TAP doesn't mean it can't leak, it's certainly not the first time it has happened with Windows Betas.

[SoLoR1]

I need to apologise, for taking my stand so firmly, but i seriously belived it wasnt any chance of being real. However i opened boot.wim (cant open install.wim yet) and all dlls and files seems to be 7106 version. So its eather great job faking it or its most likely real... however chines version doesnt help a lot of people here ;(

Just because it's not on TAP doesn't mean it can't leak, it's certainly not the first time it has happened with Windows Betas.

i do understand that ofc... but odds that happens are small, thats why i tought its fake in 1st place.

[anandus]

stupid. Yes im going to complain. for the majority of us this does us no good. might as well have not wasted their time.

Slight sidenote: There are more Chinese speaking people on this planet than English speaking people, so it depends on your definition of 'majority' :p

(There are even more people in China with an internet connection than people living in the US, for instance)

Ah hell, ANOTHER one? Seems like I'm spending more time installing new builds and tweaking things again afterwards than actually using the damn thing!

Wait, we're supposed to be using it? :|

[koinonia]

LOOOL! You're such a cute baby! =)

We love Joo no worries mate.
