Private build of core components[edit | edit source]

Privately built versions of this build's kernel (ntkrnlmp.exe and ntkrpamp.exe) and hardware abstraction layer (halacpi.dll and halmacpi.dll) were shared along with the original archive that contained this build. The private build has a buildtag of 6.1.7799.0.fbl_core1_kernel_ee_fwproto_lpia(pareshm).100730-0948.

Quirks[edit | edit source]

The build tag string (BuildLabEx) is too long to fit in the About Windows dialog, so it ends up displaying just the build number itself.

Bugs and quirks[edit | edit source]

USB 3.0/xHCI[edit | edit source]

This build includes a non-functional xHCI driver and will not boot if USB 3.0 or later is enabled. Disabling USB 3.0 from the VM configuration (or through the physical machine's BIOS/UEFI firmware) will allow the build to boot normally.

Installation[edit | edit source]

The background seen in the Windows Preinstallation Environment is absent in this build.

Windows Media Center[edit | edit source]

Both the text size and text color of the Windows Media Center are abnormal in a few areas.

DWM and Aero[edit | edit source]

  • The Windows Basic and the High Contrast themes do not properly render due to the enforcement of the DWM Aero theme.
  • Only the top portion of the window frame is blurred when using the Windows Aero theme, leaving the side borders transparent.
