New features and changes[edit | edit source]

The "Starting Windows..." text present before the boot screen is initialized was removed.
Windows Setup[edit | edit source]
Text-mode[edit | edit source]
The key to launch Automated System Recovery during the text-mode part of Setup has been changed from F5 to F2. The BOOTCFG command was also added to the recovery console.
GUI setup[edit | edit source]
The GUI setup has been updated to its final design. The steps in this design use radio buttons instead of checkmarks, with the bars on the bottom right corner being replaced with green squares.
The color used for the progress bars has been changed from orange to green, and the check marks have been replaced with radio buttons. another change is with the Windows Whistler wordmark which is replaced with the Windows XP wordmark.
A new icon was also added to the top right corner of the Setup program.
In the upgrade setup, check marks are now used for marking steps. The background color was also changed from white to blue.
Out-of-box experience[edit | edit source]
The Out-of-box experience has received an overhaul since build 2463. The clouds in the background were replaced with a spotlight and Merlin was replaced with a Question Mark. Along with this, the popup telling the user on how to use the mouse was removed.
This is also the earliest available consumer build of XP to include the Welcome Music composed by Stan LePard, also known as title.wma.
User interface[edit | edit source]
More icons (like the Notepad, Windows Update, Activate Windows or System Restore icons) were updated to their RTM appearance.
System Restore has also had its appearance updated to its final design, which includes a dark blue topbar.
Miscellaneous[edit | edit source]

- The alternative
