For me absolutely yes! I was getting BSODs all over the place with the 7232 build! So far win 7264 runs perfectly! PowerISO is lightning fast, not like in the older builds!

one simple solution is to run setup.exe in compatabilty mode (vista SP2)
you will get some rubbish about losing your ultimate extras and have to re-start, then all will work fine from there on.....
Ps you will prob have to mount the image or copy the files to your hard disk for it to work properly.
So you have to modify files to UPGRADE to this version from 7229 64?
I wouldn't ever do an upgrade via the software.. Only a clean install for me.
Looks like I am gonna do it...
If it looks good on the lappy, I'll do it on the media server.
Upgrade installs from prior builds of 7 to later builds have been working quite excellently for me on my rig. Having done several of them by now, I'm quite happy with the results and the ease.
I do have to clean up a few little things after each upgrade is completed, such as reinstalling a couple of security apps, and a driver or two, but it's far easier than doing a clean install. MS has really improved the upgrade outcome, imo, and upgrades now work very well indeed.
That said, I'll probably still clean install the final golden RTM version, although I'm now not convinced it's really necessary if upgrading from a prior version of 7.
Flawless upgrade from 7229. Only thing I have to reinstall after each upgrade is my Auzentech Prelude drivers for soundcard.
The fresh install on my laptop went so well that I am going to do it on my media center tonight..
Thanks guys, good call!
