Changes[edit | edit source]
- Setup's appearance has been changed in this build:
- The sidebar on the left side has had its color changed from gray to black.
- Setup billboards have their Windows 95-esque appearance replaced with a new style where the text is now sliding from the right and shown on the background.
- A new bug reporting utility was introduced, along with a warning asking if you are a part of the Memphis beta program.
- The Memphis HelpDesk was introduced.
- Task Scheduler has been added.
- The "Scanners and Cameras" Control Panel applet received a new icon, which would be replaced again in build 1500.
- The My Computer, Network Neighborhood, Recycle Bin and folder icon have all been changed
Bugs[edit | edit source]
When setup is restarting into the second stage, a fatal exception 0E at 0028:C003BDF7 in VXD VFAT(01) + 00009AE7 may occur. If this happens, press Ctrl+Alt+Del to continue.
