[https://web.archive.org/web/20020607020255/http://winsupersite.com/reviews/windowsxp_gold3.asp Windows XP: The Road to Gold (Part Three)], ''Paul Thurrott's SuperSite for Windows''. 24 August 2001. Archived from the [http://winsupersite.com/reviews/windowsxp_gold3.asp original] on 7 June 2002.</ref> and later scene leaked on 22 June 2001. == Release information<ref>https://groups.google.com/g/microsoft.public.es.windowsme/c/yiU38QvqF1Q/m/240a6VzSjrcJ</ref>== {{Collapse top}} <pre> Interim Build 2465 is available for download We are pleased to announce availability of Microsoft(R) Windows(R) XP interim build 2465 for electronic download. This is an interim build following Beta 2. You are not required to download or install this build as a part of the Whistler beta test. Interim builds are provided on an as-is basis for hardware and software developers, and for those beta testers that are interested in interim build updates. Microsoft has recently announced that the official product name for Whistler will be Windows XP. However the code name "Whistler" is still present in many places in the product. Please do not file bugs on these issues yet. This build will NOT be made generally available on CD. FEEDBACK ON INTERIM BUILDS We are not looking for detailed feedback on this build (e.g. bug reports). Although there are some improvements, there are not a lot of significant Beta 2 changes. You should report regressions from Beta 2, and you are welcome to see if bugs in some areas have been addressed. Other than that, please report only critical issues at this time, as we are still focused primarily on beta 2 feedback. PRODUCT KEYS Microsoft Windows Whistler requires a product key to complete installation. Each Technical Beta ID will be issued a unique product key for their use in testing Windows Whistler. If you have not yet gotten your assigned product key, log on to http://windowsbeta.microsoft.com/support/key.asp. The product key previously issued to you should be used to install this build. Your product key can be used to install all editions of Whistler (e.g. Personal, Professional, Server, and Advanced Server). This product key is assigned to you and should be used by you only (or only your designated representatives if you are a corporate site). Your product key is a representation of your Technical Beta privileges. You may lose your Technical Beta privileges if your product key is published on an Internet site or otherwise becomes publicly available. WINDOWS PRODUCT ACTIVATION You have up to 14 days from installation to activate Windows. The prior registry key to disable activation no longer works. Activation can be accomplished via two different connection methods: Internet and telephone. Customer service centers supporting telephone activations for other countries are now available. You may install Whistler on as many PCs as your End User License Agreement (EULA) allows. Please see your EULA and the supplemental EULA posted here and on the web site for exact details. For beta, the grace period by which you must activate is set to 14 days. For RTM, it will be 30 days as previously stated. Please use the ".beta.whistler.product-activation" newsgroup to post any problems or technical questions pertaining to product activation. INTERIM BUILD This is an interim build we are releasing for ongoing development efforts. Microsoft does not recommend that you install this build. This is an "external test release interim build" provided primarily for hardware and software developers to use in lab test environments to verify recent code fixes and application and device compatibility. If your connection to the Internet is such that you can download a build of this size, you are welcome to download, install and report any critical problems to us as soon as possible. However, this release is interim developmental code between standard release milestones. As such, much work is in-progress and many features may not be fully functional. In addition, this release has not been fully tested to the same level as a full external beta release This build may not be as stable or reliable as a beta milestone release. It may contain fixes and improvements in some areas while it may have new problems in other areas. You are welcome to install and try this build at your own risk, recognizing these limitations. This build may in fact work better in some cases for a limited set of beta users. We are only releasing the client SKUs at this time (personal, professional and professional checked versions). Server SKUs may be available in future interim releases but will not be made available for 2465. If you install this build, please complete an install survey. (http://windowsbeta.microsoft.com/Survey/Install_Survey.asp) WHAT IS NEW IN THIS BUILD? To avoid going too deeply into the details of the build process, very few areas of build have changed since Beta 2. Most of the changes that have been made were prepared and cued up before Beta 2 even shipped. As a result the changes do not contain many changes based on specific feedback from Beta 2. The areas that have changed are: - User Interface - Audio drivers - Print drivers - COM + - Help and Support - Some server components - IE, OE and Windows Media Player </pre> {{Collapse bottom}} ==NFO file== This NFO below is republished here for archival purposes only. {{Collapse top|title=NFO contents}} {{:Document:Windows XP build 2465 (idx01) NFO}} {{Collapse bottom}} ==New features and changes== ===Out-of-box experience=== The pre-OOBE display settings popup was updated to have its options reduced to just an "OK" confirmation dialog, with the never ask again checkmark being removed along with it. ===User interface=== ====Look and feel==== The [[Luna]] theme has been updated to feature a near final design. This design removes the shine on the start button, makes the titlebar color lighter when maximized and changes the tab header style to what would be later seen in the [[Windows XP build 2600|final release]]. The theme itself has also been renamed from "Whistler" to "Windows XP". [[winwallpaper:Bliss|Bliss]] is now set as the default wallpaper, replacing the previous [[winwallpaper:Red moon desert|Red moon desert]] wallpaper. Windows XP branding has been introduced. It can be seen in <code>winver</code>, on the watermark and in a few other areas, removing most references to [[Windows 2000]] and Whistler. The Home Edition SKU now also starts to reference the "Home Edition" branding, replacing the previous placeholder "Personal" branding. The <code>ShellAboutW</code> dialog (used in winver and the various inbuilt apps) has changed the copyright notice to use the copyright symbol character (©) instead of <code>(C)</code>. ====Icon set ==== Most icons (like the [[Internet Explorer]], Control Panel or Recycle Bin icons) were updated to their RTM counterpart. ====Wallpapers and user account pictures==== New wallpapers and user account pictures were added, which would be later included in the final release. The wallpapers include: [[winwallpaper:Autumn|Autumn]], [[winwallpaper:Ascent|Ascent]], [[winwallpaper:Crystal|Crystal]], [[winwallpaper:Friend|Friend]], [[winwallpaper:Home|Home]], [[winwallpaper:Peace|Peace]], [[winwallpaper:Power|Power]], [[winwallpaper:Purple_flower|Purple flower]], [[winwallpaper:Radiance|Radiance]], [[winwallpaper:Ripple|Ripple]], [[winwallpaper:Stonehenge|Stone henge]], [[winwallpaper:Tulips_(Windows_XP)|Tulips]], [[winwallpaper:Wind|Wind]] and [[winwallpaper:Whistler#/media/File:Windows_XP_Build_2465.jpg|Windows XP]], while the user account pictures include beach, car, chess, dirt bike, dog, drip, duck, frog, guest, horses, kick, lift off, palm tree, red flower and skater. All of these user account pictures (with the exception of car and frog), were first used in MSN Explorer 6.0. ====Login screen==== Clouds on the login screen were replaced with a spotlight and the Windows logo was moved from the top right corner to the left side of the user account selection, with the logo itself now only visible when logged out. Additionally, the "welcome" text is now only shown when logging into Windows, with text underneath being removed. ====Start menu and Quick Launch==== More Programs has been renamed to All Programs. The "Log off" and "Turn off computer" options have also had their first letters capitalized. Outlook Express and MSN Explorer were removed from the Quick Launch toolbar. ====Notifications and Desktop==== Balloon tips now contain a close button on their top right corner. The "Run in compatibility mode" and Release notes icons were also removed from the Desktop. ====Shutdown or log off dialogs==== The shutdown or log off dialogs now fade the background instead of having a block-like effect. ====== Shutdown screen ====== The shadows on the Windows XP logo on the "shutting down" screen have now been added. ===Control Panel === New Internet Options were added, now allowing the use of third-party browser extensions and disallowing the use of visual styles on web pages. The Gaming Options applet was also renamed to Game Controllers. ===Music and movies=== Windows Media Player has been updated to include a new modern look, with the default sample music being changed to "Like Humans Do" by David Byrne. The legacy MIDI files located in the <code>%windir%\Media</code> directory were also removed and replaced with <code>flourish.mid</code>, <code>onestop.mid</code> and <code>town.mid</code>. [[Windows Movie Maker]] has had its built-in tour removed. === Help and Support === The background of the Help and Support Center is now light blue, with the topbar now being dark blue. The home page has also had the secondary header seperated into two individual headers. ===Windows XP Tour=== The Windows XP Tour has been massively overhauled and now behaves like the one found in the final release. ===Miscellaneous=== *The Outlook Express 6 splash screen was updated to match the Luna theme. *[[w:Windows Installer|Windows Installer]] has been updated to version 2.0. *[[DirectX]] has been updated to version 8.1. ==Bugs== ===Broken OOBE=== The OOBE is not functional in this build on a clean installation. As such, to bypass it, the user must kill the <code>msoobe.exe</code> process or select "Cancel" on the display resolution dialog beforehand. The OOBE may work after an upgrade, but usually only if the preceding build has the missing OOBE components. == File differences == {{Collapse top|title=The following files have been introduced or removed compared to [[Windows XP build 2463|build 2463]] Professional:}} {{:Document:Windows XP build 2465 file differences}} {{Collapse bottom}} ==Gallery== ===Home Edition SKU=== <gallery> XP2465Home-Desktop.png|Desktop XP2465Home-SystemProperties.png|System Properties XP2465Home-Winver.png|[[winver]] </gallery> ===Professional SKU=== <gallery> WindowsXP-5.1.2465beta2-blstartmenu.png|Luna theme WindowsXP-5.1.2465beta2-wcstartmenu.png|Windows Classic theme WindowsXPbuild2465.png|Demo BUILD2465 SYSTEM.png|System Properties </gallery> ===Miscellaneous=== <gallery> 2465 Autorun.PNG|Autorun with new XP branding Whistler24282469Boot.png|Boot screen 2465-Display Settings.png|Display settings 2465-MonitorSettings.png|Monitor settings WinXP-5.1-2465-BrokenOOBE.png|Broken OOBE WINXPBETA2465-LoginScreen.png|Login screen WIXPBETA2465-ScreenSaverLogon.png|Login screensaver BUILD2465 ShuttingDown.png|Shutting down Whistler22572474Safe.png|Safe to shutdown screen Turnoff.gif|Turn off computer animation fade Logoff.gif|Log off animation fade </gallery> ===Tour=== <gallery> Xp-2465-tour-intro.png|Introduction Xp-2465-tour-basics.png|Start Here Xp-2465-tour-safe.png|Safe and Easy Personal Computing Xp-2465-tour-media.png|Unlock the World of Digital Media Xp-2465-tour-connected.png|The Connected Home and Office Xp-2465-tour-business.png|Best for Business </gallery> ==References== {{reflist}} [[Category:Windows XP builds]]'
