Vista RC1 Public Version


Recommended Posts

I thought Microsoft was planning to release Vista RC1 to the public on the 5th of September? What the heck happened to that? Has it been moved to another day? I checked the forums and there seems to be no questions. Sorry if this has been posted.

Oh really? I read it in some of the topics here on Neowin, I'm too lazy to find it. Haha. I managed to try pre-rc1 and it was actually twice as fast as beta 2, at least for my computer.

Haven't you been reading any of the forums on the web?

I would say at least half the people who have tried to install RC1 have had problems of some sort, so obviously, Microsoft cant release a flaw infested release to the general public...

I have tried at least 12 times to install this, and always get the infamous black screen/flashing cursor at the end, and it never gets any further..Read the posts on the web,and you'll see what I mean..

will there be an expiration on RC1 like the other beta's?

"Windows Vista RC1 is time-limited, pre-release software that will expire on June 1, 2007."

its just a matter of time before that link works.

in the meantime... why not download it?

connect users were told to use beta 2 keys for RC1....

RC1 is more stable than previous release but still many bugs that need to be worked out.

I can't seem to find the link where it says I can retrieve a serial number. I've lost my previous Beta 2 serial as I had accidently formatted my external harddrive. Does anyone know where it is?
