Bugs and quirks[edit | edit source]
Crash on startup[edit | edit source]
In VMware, this build can sometimes crash on startup with a DRIVER_POWER_STATE_FAILURE bugcheck. Restarting will fix the problem.
HAL[edit | edit source]
Common to most leaked Windows 8 builds, this build can still boot successfully, on most hardware Windows would otherwise no longer be able to boot on, without the hal.dll file being present. This is in contrast to officially released builds of Windows 8, as well as builds of other Windows versions, which can no longer boot without the file being present, on the same hardware.
Touch Keyboard in Setup[edit | edit source]
Touch Keyboard only works a single time and will not work after pressing again. To fix this, get out of the Product Key section and then go back to it again (note that the same will still happen if Touch Keyboard was closed).
