The Keys should work with any future Beta as build 7000 is intended to be upgraded even if only for RC1 when released or Retail when finished.
M$ are always aware that people use Beta versions of their OP as a main system, therefore would not do them any favours not to let people upgrade. I am sure they will change keys though by the time RC1 or release is out but you will then just enter new key when you install as an upgrade or fresh install.
The public beta keys don't work for me. It keeps saying that the key is wrong and now I can't activate it.
Please help
The beta keys do work on build 7200, maybe you copied and pasted wrong, maybe the build you downloaded is fake, or maybe you added an extra space or something?
Try again.
I tried 10 or so times, also with different keys, and the build can't be fake because it has everything that 7022 is supposed to have. I even formated the virtual disk, reinstalled it and entered the key in the installation and it still didn't work.
So if someone can please tell me exactly how you entered it, maybe I made a mistake at some point before.
Anything would help :)
Thanks.
the keys issued for the 7000 build were not unique and are freely available, they DO work for the 7022 build also. the 7220 build was a leaked version anyway, they typically come with a text file from the torrent sites with keys anyway but your original key will work to install and authorize.
Finally it works. I had to create a new virtual disk and reinstall it on that one because I only formated the one before, so maybe that was the problem, or maybe it was just a glitch in the installation process.
The important thing is that now it activated.
