Sorry for the confusion in my choice of words. It can be complicated sometime to correctly identify something.
I mean "See the desktop", with the icons, the taskbar, XXHE coming back into view. It just stays "empty" and then I am ejected from the RDC session but now necessarily with an error message. It just shows the window to access RDC like when we click on the RDC application the first time.
By "Reset", I mean a "hot start". Apart from the Power button on the audio PC, I also have a "Reset" button and it skips the shutdown sequence. Something I will use only when the PC seems frozen.
I have checked the Power options. There does not seem to be as many options as there was before, but I will go back in BASE and Normal OS mode first to check this and report back.

I have attempted quite a few times to play in unattended mode (mostly in RAM, I don't recall doing it in BASE OS Minimized). In my setting the "Persist" is ON with the LAN.
As long as I do not shut the RDC window on my Server PC, I have no trouble, but if I close it, I can't get back to the desktop view.
Sometimes it shows something but it looks like it is taking long enough to bring me back to the RDC opening window. Some othet time, it will not do anything. I simply press the "Reset" button to start a new Windows session and leave my RDC window either open or I do not use unattended mode.
This seems to be happening no matter the OS I use (BASE or RAM mode), in Minimized OS.
Since I do not detect any difference (audible difference), it is not a big concern for me, but I was wondering if there is something I am missing ?
Regards,
Alain

Peter, I always wonder how you can relate the sound of a previous version such as Windows 7 compared to a very recent version, but I trust your reports as I know that when you do (report), you have a method that has so often proven to be right. I am excited too about this and I may even "scr*p" my experiences with Windows 8, but for the moment I will leave it on the disk. My 3 OSes (apart from the TEST version, build 14388) will be the ones I play with for a while, but you define the different attributes so well, it incites me to go "with the pack" if I can express things this way. So I will put accent on this new version and yes it is well weighted in the LF, but man are those highs an incitative to smile !!!! It almost brings the sunshine to the grey weather we have her (but at least it is not hot and humid as it has been last week). I hope that more will weight in to report their findings, but the percussions... It is mad Golden Earring "Radar Love" is in a league in itself with all those percussions. I feel crazy... Alain

Alain, I cannot change the date and time (BASE, normal OS mode) since it requires NOT to have the administrator privilege. Possibly you mean via the normal clicking on the date/time ? I never even attempt that because it usually does not work anyway - certainly not in MinOS. So I always start a command prompt and apply date [enter] I just tried it ... works for 14393.0 just the same ... Peter Yes, my attempt was through the date on the taskbar... I don't know why I stopped doing this through the command prompt. I will follow that path from now on. Alain

There is a picture in XXHE, maybe an album cover or something else ? Alain, Do you mean some left over of my own situation over here ? Thanks, Peter It sould be (a leftover), but since I never play with images, it is probably easy to remove it if someone is used to it ? For the moment, it is not a concern for me (just an observation).

Peter, The increasing in size went fine. Then I accessed the audio PC locally with a keyboard, mouse and monitor. The NEW file creation in the "Boot into" menu also went fine. Modified the titles with "BASE" on the BASE option and did a few "Refresh" (to get more familiar only) and even closed the menu to restart it. Accessing now through RDC... Allowed the share of the music drive that sits on the Server PC. Creation of shortcuts on the desk (icons) for: - "All Control Panel Items". - "This PC". As prescribed, I did not add them on the taskbar. I cannot change the date and time (BASE, normal OS mode) since it requires NOT to have the administrator privilege. Made all the adjustments on XXHighEnd. Works fine Going in Minimized OS mode now. There is a picture in XXHE, maybe an album cover or something else ? I thought it has disappeared with Minimize OS but it is still there. It seems to load longer when accessing (through RDC), but is OK. I did not check this through local connection (in Minimized OS). Sound is very nice and "full". I will need to compare (this will take some time). But I like it In RAM it plays fine too I will play with it for a while now Regards, Alain
