7201 - Those running it, what's new?

Ok. I got it burnt to disk and am thinking of doing a clean install.
I tried an upgrade install with 7137 and it went pear shaped. No idea why as others said it was fine.
Anyway, I scuttled back and did a clean install of 7127 which runs really well for me.
So I think I'll do a clean install with this.
Anyone know if the old activation keys work with this build?

Cheers, John

My key from 7137 worked, but having said that I had to get a new key for 7137 so maybe get a fresh one to start with before the off.

EDIT: sorry it was a key from 7127, just noticed my scribbling on the dvd cover next to me. I should clean my glasses!

Thanks Guys. Here I go. J

Quick question, does windows update behave the same way as 7100 RC? i.e. able to download language pack and fixes like RC 7100 because it didn't work for me under 7106.

i've been using the same key since build 7000

Strange, I know the error I just made in my last post was my eyesight but regarding my first key I even got my other-half to type it in just incase. It definitely was wrote down right too because I used it on two builds prior.

I suppose my connection to MS servers could have been iffy or something at that precise time.

Somebody checked already if this build takes 7137 language packs?

Or are there already updated versions around?

Upgraded from RC1 7100 64-bit build and everything works fine so far.
