It also works for me, but then I'm already IN the beta.

Try going to http://connect.microsoft.com and singing in first.

I didn't apply for the preview before it "closed," but I tried to and already had an account... maybe that has something to do with it?

Anyone know how many slots their are?

If we are selected will we just boot our consoles up on Wednesday and just be prompted for a downloadable update?

MN said there are a few thousand slots.

Maybe you'll be given a redemption code to enter at the Marketplace and then you'll download an update file or something. Either that, or they'll flag your console for the update from their end (hence why they asked for your ConsoleID) and then you'll be prompted to download the update at next boot up (probably most likely).

Think you nailed it right on the head with that one.

Ugh, I get that weird error also, and I don't see the survery! ARGH
I just found out that that the preview program is now FULL. Now it's time to go through the thousands of applicants. Thanks for your interest and good luck getting in!

If someone puts it up for download I'll be the first to snag it and put it on a CD. I have loads lying around that I don't use.

I doubt you'll be able to just do that. I think they flag the consoles that have been accepted (via the ConsoleID) to have the update, so if yours isn't flagged you'll have to wait the extra couple weeks. :p

He's talking about the InvitationID which is automatically filled out for you if you used this link: https://connect.microsoft.com/InvitationUse...&SiteID=719

Otherwise, if you go directly to https://connect.microsoft.com/ the InvitationID is XBOX-G37M-QYWQ.

Invalid invitation ID :crazy:

    • Google DeepMind AI Control Roadmap: When Alignment Fails, Defense-in-Depth Takes Over

      By +TRS-80 · Posted

      Google DeepMind published a document on June 18, 2026, that may be the most consequential admission yet from a frontier AI lab: alignment training alone cannot guarantee that AI agents will remain under human control, so structural containment must be built before more capable models arrive.............. https://www.techtimes.com/articles/318758/20260620/google-deepmind-ai-control-roadmap-when-alignment-fails-defense-depth-takes-over.htm  
    • Creative Sound Blaster AE-X PCIe review: your headphones will love it

      By Taliseian · Posted

      I've got a SoundBlasterX G6 that I use in my streaming setup. Sounds great to me and I've had zero issues with the ancient software package so far in Win11. That G6 has 7.1, Dolby, fully working SPDIF and since it's a USB device it's outside of my rig so I don't have to worry about EMF distortion. Looks like for now this is a pass for me as I think I have better hardware....

      How do you connect 5.1 Speakers to this thing?

      I agree with both of you... It's absolutely imperative that science is completely based on actual proven facts and hard evidence and is not considered dogmatic in any way. Science is not a religion and it will never be, and that's exactly how it's supposed to be.

      I'd basically agree. The only point I would add is to be careful not to treat science as a religion, complete with priests, dogma, and blasphemy. Humans are highly susceptible to religious-oriented ways of thinking since it aids in forming communities of like-minded people. The problem is that when this happens, nobody wants to be ostracized from the group by saying that a deeply-held idea is wrong. Science and "peer review" are not immune to this behavior, unfortunately. In the end, finding truth is our own responsibility and we can't depend on others to hand it to us. Skepticism is key, along with curiosity and the willingness to critically evaluate and consider ideas both new and old.
