It's not on Technet. It's still the Beta that is available there. Looks like MS has messed up again and posted the page a little early. Anyways the RC build hasn't been compiled so how people can take this seriously I don't know.

Information from Microsoft Online Concierge Chat:

Currently the Windows 7 RC has not been avaiable through the TechNet subscription yet, only the Microsoft OEM partners such as Dell, Siemens are taking part in the RC's this period of test.

It appears it's already been leaked out if you know where to look.

I can't say for sure if it's actually the actual RC or not, but it appears to be valid, and it appears to be both the 64 bit and the 32 bit version. O_o.

* Modify the MinClient build number to a value lower than the down-level build. For example, change 7100 to 7000

* Save the file in place with the same name

* Run setup like you would normally from this modified copy of the image and the version check will be bypassed

(atleast this confirms the new 7100 milestone)

It's been confirmed that only Gold Partners ie OEM's will be able to download this. I believe it not to be the actual RC but more than likely an RC Escrow build as no info has been given about the RC build even being compiled yet on wzor.net which is usually correct and up to date.

I think this thread should be closed as it's misleading and causing unnecessary rumour.

i doubt it's the escrow build, it's states it is indeed the RC that will be publicly available by may 5th.

wzor is not the end all tell all definitive source for info...if microsoft puts it up on their own pages then what more proof do u need...and i don't think Microsoft would advertise for a half-baked Rc build either..they usually deliver the whole enchilada

The latest build compiled (Not leaked) where in the 708x range. The RC is build 7100 and is being compiled today. It will be released to MSDN/Partners Tuesday. Non MSDN/Technet people have to wait til May 5th. No I cannot give a source, and no I cannot tell you who gave me this info.

    • Sound Booster 1.13 Build 575

      By Copernic · Posted

      Sound Booster 1.13 Build 575 by Razvan Serea Increase volume on your laptop. Boost the volume of even very quiet speakers. Raise volume above maximum. Letasoft Sound Booster can be used as an extra amplifier when the volume of the program you are listening to is too low for comfortable listening and you feel that your PC’s speakers can produce a louder sound. This can be the case when the audio or video has been recorded at the level below normal. Or, for example, when the other person’s microphone you are talking to on Skype, is not working properly. There can be a plenty of other reasons why the sound is being too quiet and there is not much you can do about it except buy external speakers. Sound of any application that is being played in the system can be amplified up to 500%. Letasoft Sound Booster can raise volume of programs like web browsers, on-line communication software (Teams, Discord, Zoom), any kind of media player or games. Simply put, volume of virtually any program that can play any sound in PC, can be boosted to a comfortable level with Letasoft Sound Booster. You can control current volume with the pop-up slider from the system tray. Alternatively, you can assign system-wide hot keys for increasing and decreasing, and use them when you need to adjust volume Letasoft Sound Booster constantly monitors current gain level and prevents samples from clipping, thus reducing all major sound distortions.

      I own these and the normal QuietComfort ones from Bose. The QC are amazing and I want to love these, but for the life of me, I have a terrible time getting them attached to my ears.
