Windows 7 "Pre-Beta" Build 7004

Doug Holland: Scott Wylie, Microsoft's New Zealand Director of Development and Platform Strategy, wrote today on his blog about his experience installing a pre-beta build of Windows 7 on his home laptop.



It is interesting to note that the pre-beta build of Windows 7 installed on his home laptop seems to be build 7004, which if the term "pre-beta" is accurate would indicate that Windows 7 beta one will be some build number higher than 7004. On the blogosphere the general consensus has been that beta one would be build 7000.0.081212-1400 which the following screen shot from Scott's laptop could indicate is inaccurate.

Windows 7 pre-beta build is 6801

Microsoft announced the availability of a critical security patch yesterday affecting a variety of Windows operating systems.

Interestingly, the Windows 7 pre-beta build, which will be available to developers next Tuesday, also contains the bug. Microsoft stated "Customers running Windows 7 Pre-Beta are encouraged to download and apply the update to their systems. On Windows 7 Pre-Beta systems, the vulnerable code path is only accessible to authenticated users. This vulnerability is not liable to be triggered if the attacker is not authenticated, and therefore would be rated Important."

In a support article Microsoft details some Windows 7 Pre-Beta file information notes. The build string on the notes is 6.1.6801.4106, the same build string that has been screenshotted recently.

It is believed that the 6801 build is a milestone 3 (M3) build released to select customers and partners over the last few months.

Microsoft will be releasing the build to attendees at their professional developers conference next Tuesday.

Windows Vista Build 5219 to be released at MS PDC

Microsoft will tomorrow release a refreshed build of Windows Vista at it's Professional Developer's Conference.

Thi s build is 5219.

No. It is not Beta 2. No. It is not Beta 1. Yes. It is newer than Beta 1. It is a pre-beta-2 build.

Screenshots leaked onto the internet earlier today have led people to erroneously claim that the 5219 build compiled on 050824 (24 August, 2005) is the build that will be released at PDC.

This is untrue. Contrary to popular belief, every new build generated is not necessarily automatically incremented by 1. If this were true, the correct 5219 build (more on that below) would have been one compiled before 050824. Thus the 5219 050824 build would not exist. We have confirmed that the 0824 build is a legitimate build which was issued to OEM partners for testing. Did you leak these screenshots IBM as you did the screenshots of the 5203 build?

Build 5219 compiled on 050830 (30 August 2005) is the one that will be released at PDC.

How is that possible? Simple. Microsoft compiled mutiple builds of 5219 over the period of at least a week before finally declaring 050830 as the final build for 5219.

Among the changes from 0824 to 0830 is the fact that the sidebar visible in 0824 has been removed in the 0830 build.

Windows 7 pre-beta build: What’s inside

Microsoft isn’t going to show Windows 7 to attendees of the Professional Developers Conference (PDC) in Los Angeles until Tuesday, October 28. But new info about what’s part of the pre-beta build that will be provided to show-goers is beginning to trickle out.

"According to a variety of sources, the build that will be distributed at PDC — and, a week-plus later, at the company’s Windows Hardware Engineering Conference (WinHEC) — will be one of the M3 (Milestone 3) builds. Like the build that leaked in September, this will be a 6801 numbered build, sources say. But it doesn’t seem to be the same one I saw a few weeks back. UX Evangelist blogger Stephen Chapman says it will likely be a 6801 M3 build which Microsoft finalized on October 20."

Microsoft guru Mary-Jo Foley sheds some light on what we can expect in the soon to come build. Read on at the source for a comprehensive list of expected new features.

Bright future ahead for Windows 7 and netbooks

Craig Marcho, a support engineer with the Performance Team of Microsoft has blogged his recent experiences with Windows 7 on netbook. A pre-beta build of Windows 7 loaded on a netbook helped him to run Microsoft Outlook 2007, a number of internal applications, and IE 8 without any issues. Though Craig hasn't mentioned which version he installed, since it is a pre-beta build of Windows 7, I think we can assume it to be Windows 7 Ultimate.

Mary Jo Foley: Microsoft provided attendees of its Professional Developer Conference this week with a 160 GB drive full of bits and resources. The Windows 7 M3 pre-beta build and Windows Server 2008 R2 M3 pre-beta are on the drives.



(The Windows 7 build attendees got is the September build 6801 that leaked out a month ago. The new taskbar and quite a bit of the other eye candy Microsoft showed off during the October 28 PDC keynote aren’t part of the pre-beta build.)

The development of iPhone OS 3.0 has been progressing nicely, and approximately a week after beta 4 was released, Apple has churned out a new beta, along with a new version of iTunes 8.2 pre-release. Gizmodo is reporting a few changes in this new beta, despite initial reports that there were only bug fixes. First and foremost, it is being reported that MMS is no longer available, and the methods used to enable it are now prevented. To add to this, apparently YouTube is now improved, in that it will stream a higher quality video to users on 3G, the same video that was initially reserved for those on WiFi.

PINNED: Vista Pre-RC1 Released To Public

Not part ot the managed beta? Just itching to see what's happened to Vista since Beta 2? Good news for you then, Vista Pre-RC1 has just been released to the public as a CPP (Customer Preview Program)

Hurry up though, because it is limited to 100,000 downloads! And only those with valid Beta 2 keys will be able to install this after downloading due to the fact that no new keys have been provided.
