=== Setup === | |||
*The page of [[Windows Setup|setup]] before the restart has been redesigned to resemble the [[Windows Vista build 6000.16386|RTM]]. Most notably the "Restart now" button no longer has the arrow icon from pre-reset Longhorn, but it does not work in this build. You will need to wait until setup restarts automatically. | |||
*During the first boot, the message "Please wait while Windows prepares to start..." has been changed to add "for the first time..." at the end. This will persist to the RTM and will be changed again in [[Windows Vista SP1|Service Pack 1]]. | |||
*Windows Experience Index stage has been added to Setup. Unlike later builds, it is performed before the [[Out-of-box experience|OOBE]]. | |||
*Added some new messages when logging into a user account for the first time such as "Preparing your desktop". | |||
