| Windows Vista - Part 2 11.01.2006 |
 Ok, Emulin was a bit far but finally managed to give me the build 5270 of this new OS. I firstly tried to install it with a server version key by mistake. I took twice of longer, the final instalation was something like 7gbytes and the skin was the one of windows95 and there was no way to change it. Great! So, after a little bit of research I found out the mistake about the key I used and found a client version key. I have to say that they improved a lot the installer tho the progress bar is still not working. Now since the beginning you see the glass style thing with a decent resolution. So after 45min doing the installation this time I was able to start using the OS. I thought everything was going to be quite slow with that skin thing, but in fact, everything was quite fast and smooth, with a sublte animation when closing or minimizing the window, with the blur effect with the background and other windows. And also with that new posh thing for changing between windows you see in the top screen. Really nice visual improvement! I tried to install quicktime to be able to see the famous keynote from Apple's Jobs but it didn't work properly :'( Then I tried to watch any demo, I tried first Heaven 7 and worked properly and smooth. Then I tried fr-025 but unfortunatelly didn't work. So, looks like everything needs to be recompiled to run in this OS. I was going to try installing Trillian but was quite late then, it's still not using my wireless properly. If you want more Vista Build 5270 screenshots, check out this Paul Thurrott's gallery. |
