    7264 leaked
    search it
    x86 and x64 versions.....

    i jsut uninstalled windows 7 and tried windows xp 64, it takes less memory than windows 7 and i ust found a theme that looks like win7

    win7 takes in my case aroud 1.6gb of ram
    and winxp64 only took 260mb and its faster...all my hardware is working with the proper drivers and all....but im going to try 7264 version to check it out, 64 version....
    im just messin with OS also im very curious about ubuntu but i havent tried coz i read some programs arent compatible with it.....
    but have read good reviews about it....

    This is why I only use RAID 0 for my operating system and system files/programmes. Any critical data goes onto a seperate drive.
    Windows and all programmes are loaded up from the striped drives for speed. Everything else goes on a 500GB drive I have.

    2 x 150GB would give you a 300GB system drive which would be more than plenty.

    so its better to buy 2 disk of 500gb and make them raid than buy a 1tb disc? but the risk is that if one fail i lose all my data on them?
    shite....
    does it cost the risk? i mean how much performance would i get doing that?...my curiosity its to much hehe

    how much does

    ^^

    RAID 5 (striped disks with parity) combines three or more disks in a way that protects data against loss of any one disk; the storage capacity of the array is reduced by one disk.

    RAID 0 (striped disks) distributes data across several disks in a way that gives improved speed and no lost capacity, but all data on all disks will be lost if any one disk fails. Although such an array has no actual redundancy, it is customary to call it RAID 0.
    Doing a 150gb raid is not very smart imo. Id say go at least with 500 to 1tb+ HDs.

    in my case, the only reason for having that much memory would be for running heavy programs simultaneously with smooth precision, and serious gaming (diablo3 and starcraft2 are coming out soon! ).

    xp has served me well in the past, but i'm so done with that shit now. i'm looking into building a custom desktop hopefully within the next 5 yrs and running linux it, but i'm gonna stick with windows again... when i buy a new laptop at the end of this year for gaming/internet and mobile deejaying. thinking about grabbing one of these: http://www.alienware.com/products/no...computers.aspx

    I'm currently getting the SoloR torrent - latest x64 build and gonna upgrade my laptop installation with that.
    As for the new system build, yes its gonna be fucking powerful but its still a little way off so plenty of time to change my mind.
    I went back to a single drive XP installation a couple of months back after so long on RAID 0 (one of the drives failed) and I'm hating it. So slow to start up and get programs running. So my next system I want everything available in memory or quickly accessible.

    you need to download the version you want and install it or upgrade it without any lose of you currently files in use, leaving them intact or do a clean install(what i did)
    thats all, i have 7260 x86 and so far i havent had problems with it, i need to install more games and more aplications to see a difference or something...

    12gb of ram ddr3 and i7 or i9? what the hell why you want that much powa?
    damn!

    it looks cool, and you can download a program that enables dreamscene, what i did and also it removes the watermark of the windows version

    Running build 7100 on my laptop here. Can't say I've noticed any problems. That said I'm not using it heavily. How do I upgrade it to a later build?
    Also hoping MS offer me a nice cheaper upgrade price from Vista. Got a full licence for the Home version that I never wanted on my laptop in the first place.
    So by the time SP1 comes out I'll probably all set to go. Plan to have a new system built with Core i9 and tri channel DDR3 with 12GB. (although the reality will probably be a Core i7 as i9 is bound to be rediculously expensive). Also hoping by then SSD will be at a decent price/performance ratio and I can RAID 0 a pair for my system drives.

    sheesh MS is really taking win7 seriously. They've hit the RTM milestone already

    6.1.7260.0.win7_rtm.090612-2110

    If you do go to any beta build that's 72XX (or higher), be sure to clean install it. For some reason, upgrading to a higher build doesn't clear out the bugs from older beta builds. It's so painless to install that it'd be a no-brainer anyways.

    I really really REALLY dig Win7. Defo one of the best OS's yet.
