| Kernel version | NT 5.50 |

| CPU architecture | x86 |

| BIOS date | December 10, 1999 |
Windows Neptune build 5111 is the Developer Release of Neptune and a Milestone 2 build.
It is the only build of Neptune to have leaked.
Features
Login Screen
The Login Screen in Neptune is an HTML and Javascript based UI. The Login Screen files can be found in logonhta.dll. Installing Internet Explorer 6 on this build usually causes the login screen to stop functioning.
User Accounts Panel
Another HTML and Javascript based UI, pretty much an early version of the Windows XP one. The source code for the applet is contained in nusrmgr.cpl.
Help Center
The Help Center in this build appears to be a direct copy from an early Windows ME build, as the internal branding and help text often contains references to "Windows Millennium". It is run by MSHTML and uses .htm and .xml files for most of the content, as can be seen in the data folder C:\WINNT\PCHealth\HelpCtr\System.
The database is a .mdb file and can be edited with Microsoft Access (after Whistler 2202, Microsoft switched to a different file format that doesn't allow easy editing); copying the database from early Windows ME builds should add the full range of support topics, however some broken help links will show up.
Using the HCupdate.exe in the binarys folder and a properly configured .cab file allows updates to the Help Center components.

To install the Activity Centers in this build, follow these instructions:
- Put your Neptune installation CD into your CD drive.
- Click Start, Run or press Windows Key + R to open the Run dialog.
- Type in regsvr32 X:\i386\accore.dll (where X:\ is the drive letter of your CD drive) and press Enter.

You can set the activity centers as a background, as it is probably meant to be, by doing the following:
- Right click the desktop, click properties and go to the Web tab.
- Put a tick in the box with: Show Web content on my Active Desktop.
- Click the "New" button and browse to the activity center's main homepage (%WINDIR%\Activity\Start\StartPage\start.htm).
- Maximize the new screen at the desktop by hovering over the top with your mouse and clicking the second right button.
- Optional: Remove the icons by right clicking in the empty space on the desktop, hovering over "Active Desktop" and clicking "Show Desktop Icons". Then place your mouse over the left border and stretch it as far left as possible or click the third right button.
The Ex-BA member KenOath was able to fix the Activity Center completely using different files and resources from unleaked Windows ME builds.
