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.

I followed that link but there seems to be nowhere to register for a
product key, do I use the old key I have for beta 2?
Thanks
