Bugs[edit | edit source]
Installation[edit | edit source]
- This build requires either a debugger or replacing drivers with ones from the non-Check/Debug versions from build 4051 due to the large amount of assert errors that prevents setup from installing properly.[2]
- Due to this build being a PDC build like build 4051, this build cannot be normally upgraded from a previous build and can only be clean installed.
