#1 Post by tric » Sat Oct 07, 2006 12:26 am

Windows Vista RC2 is now available for download for a limited time only. Its open to MSDN, Technet, and CPP participants. I'm downloading it now. Will try to install it as soon I'm done with it.

Here's the download link for the EN x86

I installed Windows Vista RC2 Build 5744, so far, it's the best Build I've ever tested in my T43 (2686-M4U/1GB RAM). I did an upgrade from Build 5728. I was to lazy to do a clean install even though I know, I clean install would be better than an upgrade.

My Peformance index increased by .1 hahahha, from 2.0 in 5728 to 2.1 in 5744. (Wow, such lousy performance). But I know, coz Vista base it in my ATI x300, which you guys know isn't really that powerful. But I was amazed with the performance of my 2.1 PIndex. Build 5744 seems a stable and fast. The only bug I discovered is you get an error creating a folder named Con in the desktop . Can't figure out why.

Regards to all.
