If it bothers you that much, you probably should see a doctor or something. Seriously, it's a non-issue and there's no point in making a stink about it when no one notices it during their daily usage of Windows 7.

Yes, it bothers a lot and you notice it thousands of times on daily usage (everytime you open or close a window). It just ruins the Aero experience, trust me.

Perhaps it is you who should actually see a doctor if you can't see it. Something must be wrong with your eyes/brain. If you don't see it or don't care about it doesn't mean it is a non-issue. Maybe just a non issue for you but not to the peoeple who notice this. Just because you can't see it doesn't mean "no one notices itduring their daily useage", there are plenty of posts/threads about this on th internet and I expect there will be many more come GA.

I never said I didn't see it. I just don't notice it. I don't stare at my PC like it's some painting on the wall. I actually use it. So, again, it's a non-issue. Millions of users aren't going to notice a "bug" like this that only takes a fraction of a second to happen. Learn to use your PC instead of staring at it.

Again, it is a non-issue to you but you are not everyone else, so keep your generalisations to yourself. A fraction of a sec every time I open or close a window adds up to many minutes a day. What is it with all these apologists (for microsoft) lately? There is one camp that tells people not to notice this bug, then there is another that says icons are not important because everyone supposedly changes them (by that logic they should just release a bare os with no icons or programs or services and everyone just fills in these gaps). How about you respect youselves a little and expect a product without these flaws.

Does anyone know if 7600 x64 is as horrible as 7264 x64?

Why is 7264 x64 horrible for you? .. working fine here.

Exactly what I was thinking ..

Jesus Christ. You're one of maybe 3 people who have complained about this. It's a NON-ISSUE. It does not get in the way of productivity. It's not noticeable during normal usage. If it was as big of an issue as you claim it is, MS would have fixed it by now. The other issues you name are cosmetic, nothing more. As much as something like this bothers you, I'm surprised you choose to use Windows at all.

FFS, who are you to generalise for everyone. It certainly is not only annoying to just 3 other people as you claim. It is noticeable during normal usage, in fact the only time it wouldn't be noticeable is if, as you put it, one just stares at the computer and does nothing with it.

P.S. This is my last response to you as you are extremely annoying and do not provide anything constructive in your posts.

As I said before, if it's as big of an issue as you claim it is, it would have been fixed. But, hey, let's start an online petition to get MS to stop the RTM of Windows 7 because of this showstopper of a bug. :rolleyes:

About this aero frame skipping 'mistake' i do notice it, and it does annoy me.. and some arent bothered by it.

We are all diffrent, we think diffrent and we notice diffrent things.

As some people are annoyed by it, do notice it each time a window is closed its not so much as 'making' it an issue its just seeing thats its not supposed to be like this, some people are perfectionists and some arent.. why bash eachothers heads in because we look at something in a diffrent way? cmon..

I agree that this does not stand in the way of the OS operating as it should, and in time i will probably get used to it.

I have several sources now telling me that Windows 7 is indeed RTM!

October 22 is tha launch date and you can buy it on new PC's and in shops.

Epect official aanouncement and availability on MSDN, Technet and Volume Licensesing sites soon.

7600.win7_rtm.090710-1945

I think him being in such a rush to bring us this news resulted in him forgetting English spelling rules, as indicated by the parts that have been highlighted in bold.

If you're going to bother pointing out things like that, might want to make sure you highlight all of the mistakes ;)

maybe his office 2010 beta spellchecker isnt working :D
I believe you meant to say "spelling checker" and not "spellchecker". Checking spells is a job for Wizard of Oz and Merlin.

Yes, I noticed that there are a few incorrect parts in the last sentence too. I would highlight them, but I'm unable to edit my own post. Those with a good grasp of English spelling and grammar won't need me pointing out the mistakes anyway.
Why is 7264 x64 horrible for you? .. working fine here.

It was really slow, IE didn't want to load half the time, a lot of my programs crashed upon opening. Maybe it was just a bad iso or something.

Also this may not be the final RTM build, according to MS it's going to be finished in the last 2 weeks of July.

https://partner.microsoft.com/US/productsso...dows/wiwindows7

And announced at Computex 2009 in Tapei, Windows 7 will release to manufacturing (RTM) during the last two weeks of July, with general commercial availability on October 22, 2009. So get started and test-drive Windows 7 RC today. Then show your colleagues and customers how Windows 7 can improve management, security, reliability, and performance.

Alright lads listen up, no one actually knows if this is the RTM build so stop asking if its real or not. I have installed it and the only difference i have noticed is, that there is no watermark on background, i don't know whether that means its RTM or not. Lookwise no difference at all.

I also doodled around with activation and this is what i got.

Don't ask me what i did :shiftyninja:

    • JBL BAR 800 5.1.2 Dolby Atmos soundbar is an amazing deal today by Sayan Sen This Amazon Prime Day 2026 sales so far we have had a couple of nice deals related to sound and audio. First we have the Sennheiser HD 600 at its lowest ever price of just $225. Next we also have the Beats Studio Pro at its lowest price ever at just $150. However perhaps you prefer your gear to sound great on a larger scale, like throughout the room. In that case an all-in-one soundbar system can help and currently JBL's BAR 800 is a great deal for sure as it's up for grabs at just $600 (purchase link under the specs table down below). One thing that should be appreciated a lot about these JBL soundbars is their spec sheet and the frequency response data it provides. The firm is honest about it as JBL confirms the subwoofer is able to go down to 35 Hz at -6dB or F6. This means it should be covering 40Hz and up very well, where most of the bass lies. You miss out on a lot of sub-bass but that is to be expected given the price point and the subwoofer driver size. Speaking of which, it is a 10-inch driver and promises a max output power of 300 watts at 1% THD (total harmonic distortion). JBL also claims the system will provide you with a "True Dolby Atmos" experience. The surround speakers are wireless and battery-powered which means setting them up should be really convenient. The technical specs of the JBL BAR 800 are given in the table below: Specification Value Channel Configuration 5.1.2-channel soundbar system Dolby Atmos Yes, with 2 up-firing drivers Total System Power Output 720 W Soundbar Power Output 340 W Surround Speaker Power Output 2 × 40 W Subwoofer Power Output 300 W Soundbar Drivers 3 × 46×90 mm racetrack drivers, 3 × 20 mm tweeters, 2 × 70 mm up-firing full-range drivers Surround Speaker Drivers 1 × 46×90 mm racetrack driver (each speaker) Subwoofer Driver 10-inch (260 mm) wireless subwoofer Frequency Response 35 Hz – 20 kHz (-6 dB) Audio Inputs Optical, Bluetooth, Chromecast built-in, AirPlay, Alexa Multi-Room Music (MRM), USB* HDMI Inputs 1 HDMI video input HDMI Output 1 HDMI eARC output HDCP Version 2.3 HDR Pass-Through HDR10, Dolby Vision Bluetooth Version 5.0 Wi-Fi Version 6, 6E Streaming Services Chromecast built-in, Apple AirPlay, Alexa MRM Get it at the link below: JBL Bar 800-5.1.2-Channel Dolby Atmos soundbar with Detachable Surround Speakers (Black): $599.85 (Sold and Shipped by Amazon US with Prime) Prime subscription can be cancelled within three business days.

    • Microsoft releases PowerToys v0.100.1, fixes a bug that made remapped keys misbehave by Ivan Jenic Microsoft just released PowerToys v0.100.1, a patch update that addresses several stability and behavior issues found in v0.100.0. The v0.100.0 patch was a significant update for PowerToys, as it introduced all sorts of new features and additions, such as a rebuilt Shortcut Guide, a Command Palette Extension Gallery, webcam overlay support in ZoomIt, and more. However, the v0.100.0 version also introduced some bugs and stability issues. And now, Microsoft is addressing these issues in the new patch. The most impactful fix in this release perhaps is in Keyboard Manager, where remapped modifier keys were being delivered as system-key events, causing unexpected behavior in apps. The clearest example of this was Alt-to-Backspace remaps, deleting whole words instead of a single character. So, if you thought there was an issue with your keyboard, Microsoft just confirmed that it was PowerToys. Beyond the Keyboard Manager fix, v0.100.1 also addresses several other issues. It fixes a bug with Power Display that was preventing monitors from waking from standby correctly. Additionally, the new update patches Quick Access crashes on launch, and resolves a Shortcut Guide crash that occurred when switching between sidebar sections. Here’s the full changelog: Color Picker Fixed a bug where the main Color Picker window could appear inside the zoomed-in picker view Command Palette Fixed Run history initialization in AOT builds Fixed a bug where the Performance Monitor dock item could show ??? after restart Fixed the Hibernate command using the Sleep icon Limited the "pin to dock" dialog to displays where the dock is enabled Keyboard Manager Fixed modifier keys remapped to non-modifier keys being delivered as system-key events, which caused unexpected behavior in apps such as Alt-to-Backspace deleting whole words Power Display Fixed a bug where selecting On in the monitor power-state control did not wake a monitor from standby Fixed built-in display detection and brightness control on dual-GPU laptops where the internal panel is driven by the discrete GPU PowerToys Run Fixed VS Code Workspaces discovery after VS Code moved recently opened workspace data to shared storage Quick Access Fixed Quick Access flyout crashes caused by unhandled XAML exceptions during launch or page navigation Shortcut Guide Fixed a crash when navigating between Shortcut Guide sidebar sections Fixed number-key rendering in shortcut manifests and added a Postman shortcut manifest Updated bundled shortcut manifests to use the literal number-key token so number keys render correctly across apps ZoomIt Fixed a race condition in audio initialization for ZoomIt video recording You can download PowerToys v0.100.1 from the official GitHub releases page.
