willing to install Razz

wondering how long you can use it without entering any kind of key/etc


Mine said "3 days left until you have to activate" or something like that right before I activated it. Not sure what happens then. You'll probably be stuck in non-Aero mode with various limitations unless there's a working PID, then you get another 30 days before you have to activate. From what I've understood Win7 beta 1 will be a CPP offer, ie. free for anyone to try up to 180 days or something.

I'm just positively surprised, it's twice as fast as the last build I had, and it's very polished (as opposed to shaky interim builds). Everything have been smooth sailing so far.

btw, you don't have to click on all programs to make them all show up.. you can just hover over it until it auto expands...

XP had the same behavior.. it never showed you everything automatically.

Without a key you could rearm Windows every 30 days
30 days trials + several rearms resulting in 120 days or something i think

Here you go:



I have only installed all drivers and some Apps, haven't tweaked anything, disabled unused services etc. etc...

However, from your previous posts it's clear you'll be interested in the rumored Win7 Starter (great for people with single core 1ghz cpu's and 512mb ram etc.)

But your shot sucks! You should have stopped every single process and service of the OS and should have removed AERO of course, it uses Shocked 20MB more RAM! Razz

For those of us that are waiting for the official release from MS, I guess we'll have a bit more of a wait.. hehehe. Seems the sheer amount of hammering their site is taking from people trying to get their free beta has thrown the site offline Very Happy Very Happy Very Happy

That's the technet download (not technet subscriber, so it's open for anyone)

ps. I think I read somewhere they're giving out 2.5 million PID's before pulling the plug, so make sure you get a key. No need to rearm SL etc...

Lol, no I haven't tried the link. I downloaded my stuff from other servers (beta servers). Instead of a million people trying to download it's ~500-1000 or so. Wink

Well I give up trying the "official" channels. MS have been hammered into oblivion all day, heh. I haven't gotten through once - so screw it. I'll just grab the 64bit release on Usenet and use the ReARM trick instead. Screw MS and their key give-away.

It ultimately sent me to the "try again on the next workday" page which turned into a "here's your beta key" page after about 500-600 refreshes...
