release candidate

I've paid for XP previously -> i have the disk), and have the release candidate downloaded, which i'm trying to install from a virtual disk application since i don't have a dvd drive. the virtual disk application isn't the problem in trying to get rid of the Win7 Beta nonsense (that's how I...

in the 5th of this month microsoft release the windows 7 RC with a direct link from the microsoft website . Just when we thought Microsoft was getting uncharacteristically generous, we got this nasty surprise: that free Windows 7 release candidate Microsoft is giving away to everyone today...

Assassins Creed, i could install it and run it in Beta, for some reason i get an error trying to run the setup in RC. Any thoughts?

As of 6:30 am BST (British Summer Time) the official Release Candidate is available for downloading from Welcome to Windows 7

Very happy with Windows 7 RC. Microsoft have hit this one on the head and the customers can kiss Vista goodbye now forever. Runs pretty quick and is snappy too. This will probably be the best operating system that Microsoft have ever released. Goodbye XP and Goodbye Vista. I can see why...

From MS website: Please note: All users of the Windows 7 Release Candidate (including Windows Vista users who have upgraded to the Release Candidate) must do a clean installation of Windows 7 RTM. Please keep this is mind as you consider downloading the Release Candidate as opposed to waiting...

Hey all, So the time is here.. WINDOWS 7 RC TIME!!!! YAY!!! :) I just wanted to remind everyone though that even though we've reached the RC point you must keep in mind that Win 7 is still NOT in FINAL FORM.. Therefor there WILL still be some issues that no matter what we try, they just won't...

While running the Beta version I moved "My Documents" to D:\data. Today I reformatted and installed the Release Candidate but now I can not access the Data folder. I tried taking ownership of the folder and subfolders. Now I can get into the top directory (D:\data) but I can't get into any of...

I'm seeing on other sources that the Release Candidate is actually released on MS Download today -- anyone else hear this or try getting it?

Microsoft names Windows 7 RC1 dates â€Ã‚¢ The Register :D EDIT: I guess I this topic would be more appropriate in the "Rumors and News" forum. I didn't think to check all the forum catagories before posting.

Hello Fellow Windows 7 Users:D I have been running the Windows 7 now for 9 weeks and to tell the truth, I think that this could end up being the best Microsoft Release Candidate since Windows XP. There are some bugs mainly being with the Virus/ Spyware Programs, they all seem to have one problem...

When the public beta program first starts, a version is released that has been extensively tested and determined to be stable enough for the general public to start testing. This first version (In this case v. 7000) is used as the base code for all of the bug reporting and feedback until the...

Link Removed Those who want to move from the beta version of Windows 7 to the upcoming "release candidate" version will be able to do so, but it is going to take some work. In a blog posting on Tuesday, Microsoft said that it is offering two options for going from the beta to the newer test...

Is 7077 is the RC? where is 7100. :confused: I am still using 7068 , waiting for the RC.

Well, according to a post from SoLoR, who has been more accurate than anyone up to this point, the Win 7 team has reached a milestone, and have jumped build numbers up to 7105. The build string is 6.1.7105.0.winmain.090404-1235. As I said, and most of you probably know already, SoLoR seems to...

few days after Windows 7 Build 7068 , microsoft release windows 7 7070 , this release can be a sign for the quik developpement of this new os . More crumbs from the Windows 7 Release Candidate branch development are now available with the leaked screenshots for Build 7070. As Microsoft is...

Hi there, I'm not sure if I'm posting in the right forum... I have installed Windows 7 as my primary Operating System, and would like to ask if I'm able to upgrade the Beta to Release Candidate, and as soon as it is released to the full version of Win7? I really like the new features and would...

I would go download the latest build off a torrent, but I'm lazy and will just wait til I know for sure my surround sound will work in it. Anyone think the RC build will fix a lot of the hardware issues? The only problem I have with W7 Build 7000 is that my onboard surround sound doesn't work...

many people clam that Windows 7 build 7057 is the release candidate (RC) build , but certenly pretty close to being RC . Rather than publish a series of synthetic benchmark results for the different operating systems and builds (Microsoft frowns upon benchmarking beta builds, not to mention...

I know IE8 was included, and MS Paint had some upgrades + UI tweaks. Also, I like the new welcome screen. What's new in that build?
