  • There is a new shortcut to the "Administrative Tools" in the Control Panel.
  • This build replaces the sound files (except for startup and shutdown) with the ones from Windows 98.
  • Microsoft Distributed Transaction Coordinator is now installed by default, along with it a new Control Panel applet called "MS DTC".
