rednekcowboy Posted April 25, 2009 Share Posted April 25, 2009 I tried the beta and i thought it worked pretty well, however, i had issues with my Auzentech X-Plosion sound card. It stuttered and the quality was kinda poor. Anyone know if there's a driver for the RC anywhere. I know there's one for the prelude, but it's not the same is it? I saw something about that near the beginning of this thread, go back and read. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SuperKid Posted April 25, 2009 Share Posted April 25, 2009 Im sure there are alot of behind the scenes code changes and bug fixes in this rc, but some people may not notice them as build 7077 was stable anyways, well it was for me except that profile error i got which is likely from the power cut or crash i had.

matthewmarley Posted April 25, 2009 Share Posted April 25, 2009 For me its seems much faster, I dont know if that is even possible as the previous builds are fast !! I love it :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RvXtm Posted April 25, 2009 Share Posted April 25, 2009 i have to give it a try and post more impressions after installing. The only problem is that i tend to use this builds as main OS , and it's ok :) never had any problems with this. The only problem is transferring the data between formats. I wish to see more speed in the final. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Examinus Posted April 25, 2009 Share Posted April 25, 2009 The position of Fewer and More details needs to be changed so it aligns with the arrow button: The Windows Media Center startup sound needs to be changed too, because it's just terrible. Why would anybody choose that? Why would anybody even make it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sialivi Posted April 25, 2009 Share Posted April 25, 2009 I tried the beta and i thought it worked pretty well, however, i had issues with my Auzentech X-Plosion sound card. It stuttered and the quality was kinda poor. Anyone know if there's a driver for the RC anywhere. I know there's one for the prelude, but it's not the same is it? No, it's not the same. X-Plosion is built on C-Media hardware, Prelude is built on Creative parts. I mailed Auzentech regarding issues with the X-Plosion drivers back when build 7000 was released and received this answer from them: First of all, we apologize for all this situation. The formal driver of Windows 7 is not available yet.The O/S is pretty stable though it is beta version. However, our major focus is on the driver of Windows Vista and XP for our product line. We have got issues on Windows 7, and we do have a discussion on the driver of Windows 7. As the CMedia's mentioned, Windows 7 driver scheduled from June of 2009. All your ticket will be reported to the develop team. It will not come to finish soon, however we will let you know any updates as soon as it is available.

funkyblue Posted April 25, 2009 Share Posted April 25, 2009 Does the latest nvidia driver (with nvidia control panel) come with windows update? I have a 7300GT. Windows Update had the new drivers. First time for me actually! Working 100% Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Subject Delta Posted April 25, 2009 Share Posted April 25, 2009 WIN7 BUG QUESTION -Is it true that bugs from here on out will be fixed via Windows Updates rather than newer builds? If so, does that mean there will be no further builds? Should we be turning on Windows updates on a leaked build we are not even supposed to have? Anyone get any love from WU yet? No, that will not happen, new builds will continue to be released, and yes Windows update still needs to be left on to download drivers, definition updates, ETC <snipped>edit quoted bodean when i meant to quote frank lol My annoyance was at the way that Bodean posted, in a way designed to talk down to me Is WMP12 allowing third party codecs yet? It has always allowed third party codecs, you just can't replace the default ones Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lamp Post Posted April 25, 2009 Share Posted April 25, 2009 Most of the leaks seem to have modified that cversion.ini that holds the earliest build you can upgrade from, by default its 7100.....from what I have it has been modified to allow upgrading from earlier versions (something MS themselves explain how to do, but they suggest not doing it).So in short, these builds are supposedly the official RC builds, but (from what I read at least) the cversion.ini has already been modified so you can upgrade if you want. (Again, this is just what I've read, my DL has not finished so I cannot confirm it) I have the ISO released to the scene, which should not be modified, and the cversion is set to 7077 min. So I'd guess 7100 have got 7077 -> 7100 enabled by Microsoft, maybe as they are so similar code-wise? :s Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RvXtm Posted April 25, 2009 Share Posted April 25, 2009 The Windows Media Center startup sound needs to be changed too, because it's just terrible. Why would anybody choose that? Why would anybody even make it? +1 here... i have the same opinion about it. The startup animation is kind of cool, but the sound is way to "plastic" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blunden Posted April 25, 2009 Share Posted April 25, 2009 Runs a little faster on my laptop it seems (ran great before too though). Also, since the Themida issue is fixed I can actually use this build again. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Audioboxer Subscriber² Posted April 25, 2009 Subscriber² Share Posted April 25, 2009 Also is there a way to remove the watermark? This works, tried it myself http://deepxw.blogspot.com/2008/12/remove-...d-20081210.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
djeter Posted April 25, 2009 Share Posted April 25, 2009 The only problem I have run across in this build is a anti-virus detection issue with VirusScan Enterprise + AntiSpyware Enterprise 8.7.0i in Windows Security Center. I've done everything I've been able to look around and do to try to fix it, but it's still there. If this problem still exists when Windows 7 goes RTM, then it'll be a little bit more of a problem. But at this point, it's no big deal since Windows 7 is still in testing and the anti-virus still works. (I'm one that likes to know what's going on with things, so I'm not turning that message off.) I didn't have this issue in Build 7077 and earlier, although VirusScan Enterprise + AntiSpyware Enterprise 8.7.0i Patch 1 should be coming out soon. Whether or not it fixes this particular issue I'm seeing or not, I don't know. Besides that, I've had no other problems out of Build 7100. Overall, it's a good build.

cosrocket Posted April 25, 2009 Share Posted April 25, 2009 I have to run off to work so no time to read through all the posts. Just a quick question, I'm running build 7077, is there any reason to upgrade now, other than this being the RC build. If there are no important bug fixes, speed enhancements I would just wait. Thanks for any responses. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lee31 Posted April 25, 2009 Share Posted April 25, 2009 The only issue I have is below Notice the Yes button becomes inactive when you tick the box. It shouldn't be like that and it has been ever since the beta. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DSLJay Posted April 25, 2009 Share Posted April 25, 2009 The only issue I have is below Notice the Yes button becomes inactive when you tick the box. It shouldn't be like that and it has been ever since the beta. I don't think this is a bug. If your checking the box that says you do not want windows to remember your password, then why would you want it to remember the password for the current site? If you click No then the box shouldn't come up again and offer to remember passwords of any sites. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
George P Global Moderator Posted April 25, 2009 Global Moderator Share Posted April 25, 2009 The only issue I have is below Notice the Yes button becomes inactive when you tick the box. It shouldn't be like that and it has been ever since the beta. I always figured the checkbox meant you don't want it to remember passwords at all, but it seems they changed the wording. I didn't notice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It shouldn't be like that and it has been ever since the beta. I actually noticed that this morning when I was updating Windows Update to use Microsoft Update and wasn't expecting that dialog to pop up. I didn't even have to have the checkmark checked and the "Yes" button was grayed out. Not that it mattered to me, I don't store passwords anyway, but I'm glad to know it's not just me.

n3ptun3 Posted April 25, 2009 Share Posted April 25, 2009 reporting a successful upgrade from 7057 to 7100. Everything looks in order, except my recording audio devices. All the names were messed up and I had to rename them. My mic was the CD Player, the line in was the mic, and so on.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SuperKid Posted April 25, 2009 Share Posted April 25, 2009 This is nice, i just installed it fresh seems nice a smooth, i find it loads up quicker than build 7077 though! much quicker, in my oppinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
