Hello All,
If you are having trouble downloading pre-RC1 here are some things that you can do to get it to download. 1. Clear all cookies, temporary internet files 2. Run disk cleanup to clear all temporary folders 3. Try downloading without the download manager (it goes slower..I know..but at least you will have pre-RC1) 4. If you want to use a download manager I recommend Free Download Manager (http://www.freedownloadmanager.org) Again the download link is http://download.windowsvista.com/pre.../download.html If you want to verify that all is well with the ISO you just downloaded, get a CRC checking utility and check the ISO against the following checksums. Signatures of the ISO file: MD5 hash: e7f0a439e1e61d57ebf3c4f89e2f96d7 SHA1 hash: d1e7eaeb9893200c80e8a4902f2b012f3ff3eef6 After you get it installed, please install the Feedback tool and set it so your bug reports are public. Directions are as follows. To do this make sure you have the latest Beta Client. (Install by using the icon on your desktop after you install.) In the client go to the Options link on the left hand side of the window and select Enable Advanced Tracking Options. Before you send your report, on the finish page make sure you select Public down towards the bottom of the window and then send your report off. I'll monitor this group and then if you have questions about your feedback leave them here and I or one of the other Tech Testers can review your feedback in Connect. If you have any other questions post them here and I will be glad to do the best I can to help you solve your problems.

That's just 32 bit. I would like the 64 bit. Have a URL for that? Thanks.

Hello Buddha,
The Pre-RC1 build does not come in a 64 bit edition. You'll have to wait for RC1 for 64 bit.

Hello Beck,
Yes. Use the same key that you used for Beta 2.
