As an MSDN subscriber yes. Please show me a page that has a Download option
for Vista otherwise. The page you referenced has NO LINK to DOWNLOAD VISTA.
Service pack 1, yes but NOT the FULL OS.

MANY PAGES? You're covering up your embarrassed ass.

Click "Buy Now" on the referenced page and on the NEXT page anyone
with normal eyesight will see a download reference at the top of the
right side of the screen.

See the BIG green Buy Now button on the bottom of the page? Ever try
clicking on it?

The next page that comes up allows you to purchase Vista online, and
download it from Digital Locker.

I know, because it is how I purchased Vista, a year ago. A few months later
I sent MS $10 for a DVD.

Hey,

I was 81 in August and my family gave me Windows Vista as a gift.. I
hesitated a few weeks before I tried to load it.

By then I realized that I don't have the Authorization Code, or the
Manual, or even the receipt from the online Vendor and I can't
remember where I bought it.

Is there any possible hope for me??? I hate to tell my family that I
can't use the disc without the Authorization Code....I'm so
embarrassed!

Help please in getting this thing loaded?

A million thanks from one desperate soul!

Swallow your pride and ask the family where they bought Vista, assuming
the information in the first paragraph is correct. The second paragraph
contradicts the first one.

I turned 78 in July. Is this sort of stuff what I have to look forward
to? <grinning weakly>

Just think of my predicament, Bill, I'm only 38 and already having 'senior
moments'.
A few weeks ago I mislaid my car keys, eventually finding them in the
fridge!
