agreenbhm Posted December 4, 2008 Share Posted December 4, 2008 Since MS hasn't released the beta of SP2 to the public (as of this writing), I'm hoping to be able to grab a copy off of the torrent networks. Problem is, there are plenty of leaked ones from back in October, but I don't know if it's the same build that is supposed to be released today. Anyone with an MSDN or TechNet subscription that grabbed the beta able to confirm the build number for me?

Myrdhinn Posted December 4, 2008 Share Posted December 4, 2008 Hmmmm, the prev build from Oct was v113. Sigh I just may have uninstalled for nothing if the public build is the same.

CPressland Posted December 5, 2008 Share Posted December 5, 2008 I'm not entirely sure what you hope to achieve from installing a Beta Service Pack but hey. Best of luck and supposedly the registry trick is the best one at the moment.

agreenbhm Posted December 5, 2008 Author Share Posted December 5, 2008 MS finally released the download for the public. Well, tried, at least. Site seems to be having some issues. Anyway, I d/l'd and installed the October release from Usenext and it is the v113 one. IDK any noticeable difference yet, but I'm happy to have the latest and greatest.
