Windows 7057 Upgrade Issue

Hello,
Yesterday I've installed Windows 7057 (RC1), I upgraded it from 7048 with a mounted image. I already managed the problem with notepad starting up on each boot up but the new windows boots up for about 10 minutes and when it finally shows my desktop it keeps causing problems. I can move the mouse but suddenly I can't click on anything, than gadgets load up and system makes another freez althoug a gadget shows Core1: 2% Core2: 3% and RAM: 70% FREE, after some minutes it runs ok but freezes when I start installing/uinstalling. All in all full boot up takes up to 15 minutes :/ Any solution ? Thank you for further replies.
My computer:
Core2Duo E8400, 3,5GHz
EP43-S3L Gigabyte Motherboard
2GB HyperX Kingston CL4 ( Dual channel )
250GB SATA (here is the system installed) & 80GB IDE
GF 9600GT Gigabyte MCC

Sorry, I don't have an answer for your long boot up. But I have that problem with notepad starting up with a desktop.ini label with this text:
[.ShellClassInfo]
LocalizedResourceName=@%SystemRoot%\...l32.dll,-21787

How did you solve it? It's not a show stopper, but I would like to know why. Build 7022 did not have this.

Thanks in advance.

Startup Bug, Desktop.ini Opens in Notepad on Every Boot – FIX
This is an odd bug, mostly due to the fact that some instances of desktop.ini are visible and not set to system and hidden. Fortunately the fix for this is quite easy:

1. Navigate to C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\Startup
2. Delete desktop.ini
3. Navigate to C:\Users\USERNAME\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\Startup
4. Delete desktop.ini if present.

Thanks, that did it.

Can someone please help me, as far as I know, I'm not the only one with that problem. And I don't want to format my C:\

Apparently I'm more of a computer idiot than I thought, but there is no "programdata" file or "appdata" file. I am not able to follow your file string on 1 or 3.

nevermind, figured it out.

show hidden files mate

I'm experiencing the same problem as you buddy666. Have tried almost everything I can come up with, but still no luck.
My computer is a Acer Aspire L5100, And I'm pretty sure it is a hardware related problem. But what? Now that I can not tell.
If you come up with a solution, feel free to share with me, I will sure as hell share it with you.

Same here on an eee pc 901 with build 7057

i did some testing and it seems to be related to the Sata drive. using my old (pata) ssd everything installs and runs smoothly, but when using my Sata ssd install take ages and very slow startup.

also device manager seems to hang when i double click the sata drive.

Maybe if I try to load the SATA-drivers when installing, it might solve it.
I do not have a SSD in the machine. Just a regular Sata-drive.
I'll give it a try tomorrow to see if it might solve it.

Thanks for the tip
