New features and changes[edit | edit source]

Bugs and quirks[edit | edit source]
Graphics driver[edit | edit source]
The default VGA graphics adapter is very buggy, often having the screen flicker through resolutions and cannot have resolutions higher than 800x600 pixels. However, if upgrading from a previous build, it is possible to get resolutions of 1024x768 and higher.
Branding[edit | edit source]
Like in build 5456, winver and System Properties incorrectly refer a "Service Pack 0 v."
Shutdown[edit | edit source]
When shutting down, the sound will only play for a quarter of a second.
Upgrade[edit | edit source]
The wallpaper gets changed to img22 when upgrading from Windows XP, Windows Vista build 5384 or build 5456. This bug persists until build 5840.16384.
