About dialog

Windows Vista build 5472 is a pre-RC1 build of Windows Vista, released to beta testers on 17 July 2006.

New features and changes[edit | edit source]

Certain applications such as Windows Media Center have received design updates.
The Digital Identities feature was renamed to Windows Cardspace.
The Windows PE utility (wpeutil.exe) has been added to Windows PE configuations.

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]

Unlike in previous builds, the shutdown sound in this build is the one found in Windows XP. This is likely due to changes not being reverse-integrated into winmain branch yet.
When shutting down, the sound will only play for a quarter of a second.
