What will happen...?

Hello guys,

What will happen if I install Windows 7RC as I still have a copy on a disc?

It'll probably run for one boot but after that, it'll basically tell you that you need to get a genuine copy of Windows, in this case the RTM because RC1 has expired. You can try tricking the date in a VM for fun I guess but I really don't see the point.

Personally, I doubt it would install after detecting the date in the BIOS.

You could try it and report the results.
