XP and Longhorn? - splint0r - 2003-12-14

I installed Longhorn 4051 PDC, and it took FOREVER to install. 10 minutes of detecting my computer's hardware took about 45 minutes or so! [img]<___base_url___>/uploads/emoticons/default_dry.png[/img] So far it is running very slow and extremely buggy, but hey it's in the early stages so what do you expect? haha. B)

ugh buggy, but looks nice... i don't think it worth for my business uses.

hehe, oh well. the download finished 5 hours ago, i haven't burn on to the CD coz i didn't notice that my CD-R is empty. now i see that the longhorn is pretty buggy - but at least i can test it on virtual PC 2004 B)

 

oh me duh, got some CD-RW so i can play with it :)

Agreed!

 

i'm on "Please wait while Setup detects your computer's hardware

this can take up to 10 minutes."

 

Really it should be:

"Please wait while Setup detects your computer's hardware

this can take up to 100 minutes."

 

not bloody 10! o_O

[img]<___base_url___>/uploads/emoticons/default_ph34r.png[/img] Longhorn looks overly beautiful for a gui. I will too someday have a copy I'm sure. I'd like to try it out.

 

When are they going to start working on that stupid "Digital Signed" does Longhorn have any of that?




XP and Longhorn? - Oroshi - 2003-12-17


I dunno yet, once it finish the "Please wait while Setup detects your computer's hardware

this can take up to 100 minutes"

 

then i will have a look and let you know about "Stupid Digital Signed" :)
