Windows 7 SP1 Beta FAQ

    Windows 7 SP1 Beta FAQ


    Posted: 14 Jul 2010

    The Beta of Windows 7 Service Pack 1 (SP1) and Windows Server 2008 SP1 is now available for download from Microsoft, and undoubtedly, there are questions around the release. Microsoft offers a list of Frequently Asked Questions, but of course, there are additional issues. In this regard, I put together my own FAQ for Windows 7 SP1 Beta, also leveraging details from the Redmond company. Make sure to leave any additional questions you might have in the comments section

    1. What are the best new features of Windows 7 SP1 Beta to look for and test?

    Unfortunately, there are none. Windows 7 SP1 does not offer any new features on top of what is already available in Windows 7 RTM.

    2. What are the best new features of Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1 Beta to look for and test?

    Dynamic Memory and RemoteFX. Microsoft has focused more on Windows Server 2008 R2 than on Windows 7 with the first upgrade. But still, Windows 7 SP1 will also support scenarios in which Dynamic Memory and RemoteFX are used in relation to Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1.

    3. What does Windows 7 SP1 have to offer?

    I’ll let Microsoft answer this one: “Windows 7 Service Pack 1 is an update for consumers and IT Pros that helps keep your PCs supported, provides ongoing improvement to the operating system, by including previous updates delivered over Windows Update as well as continuing incremental updates to the Windows 7 platform based on customer and partner feedback, and is easy for organization to deploy a single set of updates.”
