Windows 7 Build 6956 Startup

The bootscreen of Windows 7 Build 6956 as seen from VirtualPC running on Windows Vista x64.

The only videos I have seen so far have been blurrycam ones so I thought I would share this right from a Virtual terminal.

Please note that as it is a virtual computer it is not capable of displaying the full aero interface we would expect and what is seen is the new equivelent of aero basic.

You can't download from Microsoft anymore, but I guess there are other places.

I am not sure what the availablity of the release candidate will be, but it can't be too far away.

where did you download it from? i really want it.. i was gonna download from microsoft but then i read it only works until 20/08, then you have to buy windows 7 or reset to old OS

I am a beta tester.

If you install this version of Windows 7 on Virtual PC 2007 Service pack 1 then do the Virtual Machine Additions work on it?

[PatrickOSNN]

Oh, although I have noticed that dragging and dropping files onto the desktop from outside the virtual environment doesn't work so well!

The Windows Release Candidate is coming out soon. That's the full version of windows 7 for free. If you want I can send you the link (From the official Microsoft site, but just google it).

[russianman07]

can you give a link to the beta or is it closed down?

[PatrickOSNN]

Very much not true :)

Of course a look can always be copied but there is much more going on.

apparently there is no difference between vista and 7 only 7 is made for table pc's but other than that and the theme there the same. if you want the 7 theme for vista you can download it from many place as i am using it now.

Yeah, seems to work fine. The older build I was using didn't seemto like custom resolutions but this one has been working with no issues.
