Since this Windows 7 beta build is from early 2009, I wonder why the desktop wallpaper with the fish on it was cut from the final release a few months later? It was one of the best due to its spectacular under-the-sea style!
This build is supposedly to be the first build to have USB3 support. MS is just really lazy to put it. So this is why Windows 8 Build 7850 is the First OS to have USB3x support which came out on 2010. Besides. USB3x came out on November 2008. Speaking of that. I was born on November 6 2008. And also Windows 7 came out on 2009. Which is A year after USB3 came out. And Win7 should be the first OS to have it. Unfortunately it's Windows 8 which came out on 2012. It was 4 years far before a supported MS OS to have the USB3 support. Vista SP1 and XP SP3 also came out on 2008. But sadly they also have no USB3 support
Everything resambles to rtm in this build the only difference is the wallpaper which will be changed from beta fish to harmony in build 7232 and the harmony wallpaper is also the default wallpaper in rtm
Install vista first,then boot from the 7 beyw CD and format it during the win7 beta install and you dont have to worry about resetting the BIOS . Works with Windows XP and a random Longhorn build
It's much easier to do what I did instead. What you're saying requires a lot more work. You might as well just mess with the BIOS which only takes a minute,
@@arthurmartinsgoncalves6468 It's not lazy. It's actually the right way to do it. I don't upgrade from previous builds for a reason. Upgrades sometimes lead to huge discrepancies in how the build is and what it should be. This is most noticeable when I once upgraded to a Windows NT 5.0 build from Windows NT 4.0 and a viewer who paid a lot of attention to that build became very puzzled when there were things that were supposed to be removed were left behind and the build behaved differently. I've also seen discrepancies in multiple builds when upgrading where the startup and shutdown sounds from the previous build were left in use, but when clean installed, the correct startup and shutdown sounds were used. Much of these discrepancies create confusion for the viewers hence why I don't upgrade builds.
Because most builds are only valid up to a certain date. The build was compiled on 2009-03-24 and the timebomb is 2010-03-01. So you can only install the build before the timebomb. I set the date back to modern date after installing so I can use the web browser without issues but if I were to restart, I would get a message telling me that the build has expired. When builds expire, they often will either refuse to boot, won't let you login, or disable some features.
@@A_Guy_with_Ribbon That's exactly the issue. Before you install, you need to set a BIOS date. You can find articles for these builds at BetaWiki.net BetaWiki gives you all of the information you need to know about builds including things like BIOS dates and issues with a particular build as well as workarounds.
I just use whatever I find works first. If I find something that works and it doesn't take that much time to do, I don't like to mess around any further because I'm already satisfied with the fact that it works. I totally understand your method is better, but this is just what I decided on.
@@realcgcristi Not at all. That used to be an issue for me, but I've already found a workaround for that, which is done by adding this to the VMX: tools.syncTime = "FALSE" time.synchronize.continue = "FALSE" time.synchronize.restore = "FALSE" time.synchronize.resume.disk = "FALSE" time.synchronize.shrink = "FALSE" time.synchronize.tools.startup = "FALSE" time.synchronize.tools.enable = "FALSE" time.synchronize.resume.host= "FALSE" But I have a program called "VM_Tweaker_0.13.3.50", which hasn't been updated in awhile so I believe it only works with Workstation 12 and before (works fine with backwards compatibility mode) and it will do all of that work for you.

Windows 7 is my favorite version of Windows. In fact, I am using it right now.
probably because you’re called windows 7
I'm also using it right now and i'm using the full released version of windows 7 extended kernel
I remember having the beta version of Windows 7 on a laptop and then upgraded to the final version a long time ago.
Awesome

The wallpaper was specifically designed for the beta, as the fish shown is the betta fish. It’s a play on words
Perfect video, i love Windows Betas!
Awesome video
Nice👍

@David Anderson Windows 8 isn't bad at all. But i prefer Windows 7 sometimes. But I mostly Prefer Windows 8 or Windows 8.1

I mean not only is the video perfect, but also notice the build number, it makes sense.

No offense

More people following my trend of asking billy to test builds with numbers that match with the os
I like vmware 15 EDIT now that i moved to windows 10 (older build meant for slower computers) i now use a more recent vmware version
wow it is debombed
¿drivers?
Whistler 2467 Professional (PT-BR)?
Not leaked
Really, there is no need to change that clock...
There's a timebomb on this build as you can see in the description. It is necessary.
why did you set your date to 2009?
Because most builds are only valid up to a certain date. The build was compiled on 2009-03-24 and the timebomb is 2010-03-01.

why not just install VMware tools 10.2.5?

What's the product key?
I don't give those out or allow them in the comments in my videos so that it cannot be used against me for the purpose of having my video taken down.
