===Timebomb===
This is one of the first Windows builds to include a timebomb, which is activated by IO.SYS. Once activated, it will display a message saying that the pre-evaluation period has expired. Windows will immediately shut down and no longer boot until it is reinstalled with the correct BIOS date set, as IO.SYS patches itself to run on an infinite loop once the timebomb activates. Therefore, it is strongly recommended to disable time syncing with the host if using a VM, if available, or replace IO.SYS with the version from build 189 before boot.
