No need to enable the Themes service, it's enabled by default in this build - otherwise Aero lite wouldn't be able to function.

Is is really loaded. also writes the Windows Server 2008 what is this?

well it is going to take longtime to be downloaded

You aren't funny.

Nice to get a x64 built ...but it is "only" the Server Edition?

As always, WinWorld has this build mirrored if the FTP becomes too slow or down.



Don't you think you're taking it a bit far there? That's a wee bit offensive to some people.

You sir, are first, not funny. Second, quite offensive. Goodbye.

86.4%... Not long, are you guys enjoying this build? ;D

Can you give me information about this version of Windows 8?

Installing it now \o/

I can't download nothing in the private FTP, so I downloaded this build by torrent and installed. I prefer Client builds, but thanks to the leaker !

The DDoS attack is being really a pain in my arse if you know what I mean lol... I can't get ahold of the leak until it ceases...

Guys, here's some information before installing.

I'd advise you to stay on build 7955.

1. The installation process was extremely laggy.
2. There is no aero theme.
3. None of the registry tweaks from 7955/7850 work in this build.
4. Drivers refuse to install via device manager.
5. No pattern login UI
6. Stripped down features.
7. Aero lite isn't present.
8. Ugly build.

This build is horrible, I will go back to 7955 if nobody manages to unlock the new features.

1. your computer is a piece of [censored].
2. Same as above.
3. Obviously.
4. Same as #1
5. Still locked.
6. Not really.
7. You have to "add" it yourself.
8. That's just your opinion.

Now stop scaring other people...

Aero doesn't work because the video drivers do not install on this build (works fine on every other build) IT seems to install "Microsoft Basic Display Adapter"

Also, could someone tell me how to enable Roaming Options? It seems to redirect me elsewhere when clicked z_z

I heard that account should be linked with Windows Live for this. But probably it's just locked.

For anyone that's interested, VMWare might not work but Hyper-V does. It's running as well as one can expect.

Did I hear right? Themes are enabled by default on the server edition?
I'd have thought that these would be locked down, by default!

Has anyone an unlocker for this build?

It most likely would/will be once released. But for this alpha/beta/demo...it's not.

There are bunch of pretty interesting tools in the C: partition of this build (I don't know, maybe older collectors already have those tools from previous Windows versions).

Test them

Make 750 posts or donate some money.

There is new OOBE in this build?
