Why is RC1 telling me it's going to expire in 8 days?
I am running RC1 build 7100 and I am now receiving activation notices stating that I need to install a "released" version of Windows 7 Ultimate and to back up all of my data before the beta product expires.
Windows is showing a correct date of 6/23/09.
Anyone else getting this?? | My System Specs |

if you upgraded a beta to the rc, theres likely problems with the registry.
the beta is about to expire, so my guess is that your system thinks its a beta.
try a clean install, with the 7100. it should fix it. | | My System Specs | | System Manufacturer/Model Number eMachines W3502

Nah that's whats jacked up, I did a clean install from beta to RC1. RC1 wouldn't let me upgrade from Beta, it actually told me I had to do a clean install.
How can I reactivate? Activation center shows it's activated already and genuine and all that bs. | | My System Specs | | |
