I've got it booting into a spare primary partition but there are still driver issues. Download the VHD and mount with Disk Manager. Copy entire contents to new primary partition -- I used a 2 GB. Boot from 6801 DVD and use Recovery Manager. It will add the new partition to the boot menu. Reboot and at the boot menu select the 6956 partition and press F8 and start in Safe Mode. You might need to mount your 6801 partition in Disk Manager to get at any device drivers you might have saved there. That's where I'm at now...

Im downloading the Windows 7 build 6956 by WinHEC

is it a chinese release? or is english available?

I have 6801 installed, and my programs work perfectly, except for the sound.

Will i be able to do a upgrade install? or will i have to do a fresh install?

If anyone has installed it tell me how it is, and whats new from 6801.

Ill have it in about 1 hour
