- The default background color was changed from gray back to the shade of blue used in Windows 2000, Windows Me and Windows Server 2003.
Bugs and quirks[edit | edit source]
Installation[edit | edit source]
- On some machines, this build cannot be upgraded to due to a bug in the setup component file copy process.
- The
$OEM$
folder (containing eHome-specific customizations) found within thesources
directory must be removed from the image before installation due to a bug in the way Setup handles directory paths with special characters, resulting in an invalid parameter error. - The hard drive must be partitioned through the Diskpart utility (and the system restarted) first before this build can be installed.
Shutdown[edit | edit source]
Like in build 5270, the shutdown sound is cut off during playback.
