Hey.
Just downloaded the pre RC1, but I dont have my product key any more. Is
there any way to get it back? Or does somebody have an extra one they
wouldn't mind letting me use?
 
No-one will let you have a product key in a newsgroup. If you have lost the
one from the Beta 2 program and do not have an MSDN operating systems
subscription minimum, you will not be able to install the Pre-RC1. Wait for
the RC1.

I have a product key (which I received when I downloaded RC1) and just tried
to install RC1 but it won't accept my product key...what do I do then?
thanks, raza
 
Hi,

Install without it, just click 'next' at the Product Key screen. You get 30
days without it to try the software out. As it's a beta, you should only be
running it as a test OS anyways. The alternative is to wait for the public
release of Windows Vista, which has already reached the stage of final
code.

OK then. It is official, i will not recommend any use of Vista (especially
64-bit) except experimentally until at least SP1.
 
Hi,

I'd just format and reinstall clean. Watch the characters in the Product
Key.
