I am trying to install the OS RC2 and got as far as the product key
registration. I am looked everywhere on the net as to how to obtain this but
have not been able to. Can anyone please help? I have been on the forum for
the past hour reading through other people's past responses
 
You mean Beta 2 or Build 5384. I am not sure if there will be an RC2 but
there will be a build after RC1 that is interim at least once. I think
because of the timetable of rushing Vista out the way that the cast of
Prison Break is barelling through Illinois, this will not be possible.

1) As Darrell Gorter of the MSFT Vista Setup Team pointed out, one can call
to register this build. Call them for assistance.

2) At this moment a large percentage of 26,000 TBTs or Beta testers are
downloading this build or more accurately many or cry babying that they
can't get it fast enough to suit their gratification driven psyches. Many
of them will not lift a finger to do meaningful bug testing or any type of
feedback, participate in the Beta Live Meetings and chats. Only a fraction
of them will averaging from 100-200 so you can do the math by putting those
numbers over 26000. It comes to approximately 0.00384615% or twice that
amount for the larger number. Very shortly after this, you will also have
an opportunity to re-enter the program and obtain Build 5536 or close and a
PK. But I would encourage you in the meantime to call them now and obtain a
key. The number appropriate to your area is at the bottom of
http://support.microsoft.com

I hope you are able to obtain it today and to begin to enjoy the
interesting dynamics that have gone into the way the Vista Beta has
comported itself.

Enjoy,

Obviously he means Beta 2 and it's a public key. All the Connect TBT keys
are ensconsed in that space. What else, lol, could possibly be meant given
that salient fact?

Hmmm, wouldn't RC2 precede RC1? Not that it matters whatsoever. Just wasting
time, I am.

Click to expand...

No, RC2 would come after RC1 just like it did in
Win x64.

The commonly accepted method of counting puts
the number '1' before the number '2' not before.

Or, if you are a student of the current U.S.
education system it would be anyone's guess as
to how you count!
 
I thought I remembered back in the day of Win95 that the RCx's were
ascending, with RC1 being the final release right before RTM. Sorta like a
countdown... 5-4-3-2-1. Ta-da!

But... it could just be an addled mind at work. ;-D
