Edit: Just got a couple of keys from the site, so they are still available.

I just got a 64bit key in the first try now, after countless fruitless attempts earlier.
So don't give up

But be warned: I got the key while using FF, but could only get the download running from IE

Re: Windows 7 Build 7000 First Impressions

Lol small glitch that just happened to me...

I rebooted, and when it was starting up i said to boot from hard drive since i had to boot from DVD to install it...When it booted up again i got my old choices of windows xp or windows xp....i tried both and one was damaaged and one was really bad...so i was getting worried and booted from DVD then with 7 in it and said boot from dvd drive but then i didnt press a button...but then it booted in windows 7...so im guessing because i have really messed up partitions with windows xp all over the shop im going to have to boot with the Widnows 7 disc in at all times...


Xfire Doesnt work...well it starts up but on the right hand side it is all white..and every game evereyone is playing is Uknown Game

Re: Windows 7 Build 7000 First Impressions

Having issues with ping, its a bit higher than normal, not surprising since I'm using vista drivers

As far as I know, Windows 7 is extremely similar to Windows Vista on a kernel level, so that shouldn't matter a ton. There might be some other factor with the beta causing your higher ping.

Edit: Just got a couple of keys from the site, so they are still available.

Edit No. 2: I just ended up with 4 more keys than I actually need, so if anybody wants a 32-bit key, hit me up with a PM.

Edit No. 3: I'm all out of keys now. Good luck to those I did give a key to, good luck to those who are still trying to get a key. If you don't have a key yet, and have a Microsoft Tech Net/Windows Live/Hotmail/MSN account, try this.
