About | |
Windows XP build 2211 is an early build of Windows XP, which was shared online on 20 March 2000.[1] The build refers to itself as "Whistler Windows 2001 Professional", which is possibly a name combination of "Whistler Professional" and "Windows 2001 Professional", though it may be a formatting error when compiling the build string.
New features and changes[edit | edit source]
- Control Panel and some parts of Windows Explorer have gained updates to resemble that of Windows Me.
- An early version of the category view for Control Panel is included, showing only the most used options. The final version of Windows XP would include the applets within the categories.
- The Setup font has been changed from Tahoma to Arial. This change persisted in later builds until build 2419 reverted this change.
- Shortcuts to the "Hot Pluggable Devices" and "Taskbar and Start Menu" applets have been added to the Control Panel.
- Microsoft Management Console has been updated to version 1.2, however it contains a WordArt boot banner that states version 2.0. To open it, navigate to
res://c:\winnt\system32\mmc.exe/startup.htm
. - The Help Center from pre-release builds of Windows Me has been ported to this build. It also contains several references to Neptune in the "Report a bug to the Windows Neptune Beta team" page.
- This build introduces the Automated System Recovery. This process creates a floppy disk with setup files and performs regular backup of the Windows and Program Files directories. The user can press F5 at the Automated System Recovery prompt during setup to allow setup to recover the Windows installation.[2]
- The copyright date in
winver.exe
got updated from 1981-1999 to 1981-2000. This remained until build 2416. - In the splash screen of Outlook Express 5, the copyright date has been changed from 1995-99 to 1995-2000, while its About box still reports 1995-1999.
- Internet Explorer 5.5 (actually 5.60) is now included, replacing version 5.
- The watermark now includes the full build tag, rather than just the number of the build.
- The ability to convert a disk to GPT has been added to Disk Management.
Neptune login screen[edit | edit source]
This build contains a user friendly login screen, which is unchanged from Neptune build 5111. To enable it, change the value of LogonType
DWORD in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon
to 1. While functional, the shutdown button only relaunches the login screen unless ⇧ Shift is held down.
ClickLock[edit | edit source]
This build is the first to introduce ClickLock. To enable it, change UserPreferenceMask
in HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\Desktop
so that 3E
now reads BE
. After that, log off and log back on again.[2]
Bugs and quirks[edit | edit source]
Upgrade[edit | edit source]
On some machines, upgrading to this build from build 2202 is impossible as the text mode portion of setup locks the system up when the message Setup is starting Windows 2000 is displayed. This bug persists until build 2287.
Installation[edit | edit source]
During the hardware detection phase of setup, it may stop detecting devices (shown if the progress bar freezes for a long time). If this occurs, restart the installation.
Drivers[edit | edit source]
Some audio drivers may cause audio to be severely distorted.
Power[edit | edit source]
Sometimes, when powering the machine off, the system will either:
- Bugcheck with the error code
REGISTRY_ERROR
and will restart the machine instead of powering it off; or - Hang on
Windows is shutting down
.
