[WZOR] New Windows 7 Build 7662 (SP1) Beta ?


Recommended Posts

can't see them including .NET 4 as developers using .NET 3.5 might get conflicts, they have never including newer versions of .NET with Vista service packs, can't see them doing it this time, would be nice though for us end-users. Bluray burning support, .mkv support, new games, replacing windows defender with microsoft security essentials would be good too but for anti-competition reasons i can't see that happening either.

They could improve the features drastically but i can't see them doing that as there would be less reasons to buy win8 then.

doesn't 7 already burn blu-rays ?

oh wait ...even vista SP2 can ...have a look

ahh, so it can:P can't see them adding bluray playback to WMP tho, pesky royalties:(

that would be currently neat of them to include it .......at very least maybe they should include it as win7 ultimate feature ?

USB3 support shall be nice in SP1 :) I hope that SP1 is slipstreamable and not just putting the .exe in the update folder on the dvd.

Slipstreaming the same way it used to be done in XP is not possible under Vista/7. Just install the update, sysprep, then capture the image, or, as you said, just slap the update in the update folder (which is the new way of "slipstreaming").

or wait for a SP1 integrated .iso to be put on technet/msdn and download the leak of it:P

I've got a legit copy of win7 pro, cost me ?80 but i want a properly integrated SP1 .iso as i format a few times a year due to upgrading my pc regularly, ms forcing me to illegally download:( they should just release a hotfix that will let you slipstream or release a seperate tool.

Off topic, but has that CHKDSK memory leak been fixed with these updates that have been going around for Windows 7? There hasn't been any specific information on that and I am starting to need it.

For crying out loud, there wasn't a memory leak in CHKDSK. Does anyone not pay attention to crap anymore?

Please those who care about improving the OS by SP1 instead of chanting the "Windows 7 is perfect" mantra, please request the features from http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_featu...n_Windows_Vista and http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_featu...ed_in_Windows_7 on their forums. Only if enough people complain they might fix some issues like no total size or free disk space on status bar in Explorer, ability to disable auto sort so your files don't get scattered and so on.

There is no perfect OS out there. I don't have any problems with Windows 7 Pro and I don't see any bugs that would require a SP. All I can say is the first build of Win 7 is better than Vista ever was or wil be.

Don't be so pathetic. Microsoft aren't forcing you to do anything. You're downloading stuff illegally yourself. *rolleyes*

It is not that we think it is too early to start working for SP1, rather just too early to even reach a beta milestone for SP1 without waiting for some post-launch feedback. From what I have been reading about MS, they probably will be releasing SP1 sometime next summer, which puts it just one year after they RTM'd Windows 7. Basically all their release times are accelerated now compared to how they used to do things prior to vista.

Agreed - I think it's too early to meet a "beta" milestone but I do think they will be working on it.

(Y)

this isn't legit, not yet, too soon. but man can you imagine how much better 7 will be after sp1? i mean it's almost perfect now! ;)

Which will come first ? Vista Sp3 or 7 Sp1 :p

whats vista? jeez...i can't even sell my vista keys, people only care about 7 now.
