Windows 8 build 8176

Windows 8 build 8176 is a Consumer Preview build of Windows 8, which was uploaded to BetaArchive on 4 January 2019.

It is the last available build of Windows 8 to include a Start button on the taskbar and to play the shutdown sound.

Changes

 * Similar to build 8140, a new "Windows 8 Beta" branding is used in System Properties and the  banner. However, some parts of the build, including the boot screen and setup, still mention "Windows Developer Preview".

Autorun
Like in builds 8155, 8161, and 8175, the  text on the autorun is in the System font.

USB 3.0
This build appears to have a broken xHCI driver, and therefore will crash during setup if USB 3.0 is enabled. Disabling USB 3.0 for the VM (or from BIOS/UEFI, on real hardware) should fix this problem.

DPI settings crash
Adjusting the DPI settings will result in a bugcheck after attempting to apply changes.

Intel Graphics driver black screen bug
It is recommended to NOT install the Intel Graphics driver, as it will cause a black screen bug to occur, effectively rendering the display useless.
