7057 is Slow vs 7000

Swift · 25 Mar 2009

Don't have much problems. Perhaps you should do a clean install or something?

Same here no problems with the 7057 build using it every day system. Only issue is programs that do not have the correct drivers for W7.

I also find 7057 to be buggier and slower than any previous builds to date. We have to remember that this was an Internal build and never intended for the public. Internal builds are strictly to apply fixes and see what they break in the process so they can be very unstable under certain circumstances and setups. There can be 2 builds a day sometimes, so until MS has another public release build that's known to be pretty stable, or the RC branch builds come out, we can expect this kind of behaviour on builds other than the 7000 public release.

im using 7068 now but when using 7057 i found it much faster with file transfers and extracting files then 7000 and alot more stable, 7000 was the worst build iv used

I had good luck with 7057 too. Nothing has really been bad until now with 7068 and that's just the screen saver and power to monitor not working properly. I can just turn the monitor off but it does bug me. I have an open thread now if someone knows about this bug.

NO bugs in build 7000? Did you ever try using Explorer in the 7000 build?

We cannot give direct links but you can search torrent sites for the latest builds (7057 & 7068, both x86 & x64). Always read the comments, they will give an indication as to the validity of the torrent.
