Batu69 Posted July 10, 2015 Share Posted July 10, 2015 The announcement that Windows 10 (final) would be launched on 29th July took a lot of people by surprise, including yours truly. The general consensus being that October was the most likely general release date for the new operating system. Now, in a recent blog post, Microsoft has indicated that Windows 10 will not be available for the majority of people on July 29th, and that the July 29 date is more of a guideline than an actual hard launch.The Windows blog post presented by Terry Myerson describes a staggered delivery approach beginning from 29th July:Starting on July 29, we will start rolling out Windows 10 to our Windows Insiders. From there, we will start notifying reserved systems in waves, slowly scaling up after July 29th. Each day of the roll-out, we will listen, learn and update the experience for all Windows 10 users.So, Windows 10 will only be available to Windows Insiders on July 29th, everyone else will have to wait until they are included in one of the ensuing “waves”. Which is entirely contrary to Microsoft’s initial announcement regarding the launch date:On July 29, you can get Windows 10 for PCs and tablets by taking advantage of the free upgrade offer, or on a new Windows 10 PC from your favorite retailer.Why the Change of Heart >> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

masterupc Posted July 10, 2015 Share Posted July 10, 2015 Win 10 TP is still far from RTM, far from RC, far from being complete.There are a lot of things to be fixed and we insiders are guinea pigs... and will be like that until it becomes stable enough to go RTM...

Sadly, even on a fresh, MSDN, untouched install you can get BSOD on certain configurations. But most of the time, it's a faulty driver not installed/developped properly, or a fault in the hardware.But you are very lucky not having a single BSOd since win 95, because it can happen even on non-modified install.

The advantages of dll's over sll's is big so thats why that didnt happen they can change microsoft could change it up but if you google dll vs. sll dll's are better. I heavily tweak windows and I dont want to jinx myself but I havent had a bsod of death in awhile. As for printer drivers depending on the printer and how old it is and if its manufacturer keeps supporting windows xp depends on the difficulty on installing those drivers. I dont think microsoft can fix the blue screen of death.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I dont think microsoft can fix the blue screen of death..I got another blue screen, just yesterday, Windows 7 x64 fully updated. I installed the latest ATI Catalyst Driver and it apparently tried to install HDMI audio on top of my IDT Audio in my old HP DV2 notebook. Blue Crash of Death, no warning, no recovery .................... basta Gates. they can't fix it .... they don't care about the user. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
