Bugs and quirks[edit | edit source]

Setup[edit | edit source]

The "Repair your computer" text is cut off in setup, instead saying "Repair your".

Graphics driver[edit | edit source]

The default VGA graphics adapter is very buggy, often having the screen flicker through resolutions and not achieving resolutions higher than 800×600 pixels. However, if upgrading from a previous build, 1024×768 and higher resolutions remain being possible. This is the last build to contain this bug.
