Windows 8 build 7898 is an internal build of Windows 8. It was first shown running on an Intel Atom system-on-chip at the CES 2011 trade show to demonstrate the capabilities of low-power SoC devices.[1][2]

The original partner drop for both the retail and debug client releases of this build's unstaged ARMv7 installation media and Preinstallation Environment, including software development kits and raw symbol sets for Nvidia were eventually uploaded on 11 September 2024.

CES 2011 demo differences[edit | edit source]

Various aspects of this build were either changed or disabled during the CES 2011 demonstration, two of which are likely a result of file replacement originating from newer builds:

  • The characteristic User Tile seen in builds 7785 through 7880 is not present or was disabled.
  • The Windows Fingerprinting Service is disabled, as evidenced by the lack of the Microsoft Confidential leak warning in the watermark.
  • The desktop background was changed to the one seen in the RTM build of Windows 7, in place of the blue-green gradient Milestone 1 wallpaper that was used since build 7777.

Notes[edit | edit source]

  1. 1.0 1.1 1.2 The Starter edition (and its N and E counterparts), last included in Windows 7, had since been internally repurposed during Windows 8 development to act as a base for new and existing Windows client SKUs. The Web Server edition would also be identically repurposed during development of its server counterpart for both Desktop Experience and Core editions, although Standard Server would later take its place as the base for Server Core editions during the late development phases of Windows Server 2016, specifically during Redstone 1 development.
