Changes[edit | edit source]

  • The HEAP_INITIALIZATION_FAILED (0x5D) bugcheck was removed, leaving an undefined gap in its place.[2] This is due to changes in the heap manager that no longer deems an initialization failure as a fatal system error. It would be reimplemented in build 1130 as UNSUPPORTED_PROCESSOR.

Bugs and quirks[edit | edit source]

_DEFAULT.PIF is missing from the installation disc. This file can be safely skipped.
