Pre-RC1 Tweak Guide


Check out the Windows Vista Pre-RC1 (5536) Guide

Quote:
Windows Vista Build 5536 has been released to beta testers. This is the first build that truly shows what Windows Vista is capable of, and shows a great deal of improvement over previous builds. It is also “Pre-RC 1”, meaning that it is a preview of what we can expect in Windows Vista Release Candidate 1 (RC1)

This build introduces a lot of performance fixes and offers greater stability overall. The installation process is much quicker on most machines, and some people have even gotten the much desired 15-minute installation times.

As this build is a preview of Release Candidate 1, it is stable and usable on a day-to-day basis for most people. However, there are some things that you may find negatively impacts your experience with Windows Vista, and this guide outlines some of these things as well as how to remedy these issues.
Lots of good info.

I am getting 5536 atm... but I have been kicked out of my house so don't know when I will get around to installing it If you want the upgrade just buzz me... but I would probably wait for RC1 if you REALLY believe it will come out on the 7th!

Well Crabby your right!!!! i have just put 5536 on my PC this morning and it kicks ass. Its allot lot faster and smoother and its bug free up to yet in my experience. I relay wasn't expecting this after BETA 2 being a big flop but Microsoft have finally got there act together and its gonna be a fantastic week when RC1 hits our monitors. Anyone have any questions please ask I'm keeping this build on my PC till RC1.

Its a thumbs up from me and I'm really looking forward to RC1!
