I downloaded the iso for Vista during the public release of Beta 2, However,
I did not recieve the Product key due to an invalid email (apparently)
Anyway, Dispite that error on my part. Will it be possible for me to download
or order RC1 when it is released and just start from there? Or am I out of
luck since I wasnt able to install Beta 2 due to no Product Key?
 
I believe you will be able to if the e-mail you used during registration for
the product key, because MS said that they would e-mail once RC1 was
available, but if your e-mail address was incorrect, I don't think you will
be able to unless the download links are leaked (which they probably will be).

However that wont help the OP much since he does not get the CD-KEY if
he does not get the mail.
 
It is not that fact that my email was invalid, I get email with it just fine,
but I dont know if MSN was having problems that day due to such a stress on
their servers, I have 2 MS Passport ID's, When I tried to login it said that,
email was not a vaild MS Passport ID that is probably why I didn't get it. I
should have used my Hotmail account. But that is too late now.
 
You should still get the RC1 email, although it will go to the same address
as the Beta 2. It is likely to include a different key. It may even have
several keys so you can preview the edition of Vista that interests you the
most. MS hasn't said yet.
