Look this one..i took a snap when installing Win 7 ver 7068 X64...Why that word came...RC1?Any clue?

Probably the internal builds they're working on to debug before releasing the "real" RC1 to the public and this is the ULEA that will be in the public release. The builds 7068 and 7077 have the same EULA. Don't want to say anything stupid, but I think either build 7048 or 7057 had something like RC.99 written. I could be wrong as I don't remember for these builds and I don't have either builds anymore to check. Maybe if somebody who still uses the build 7048 or 7057, or has one of these builds around on his HDD can check. the EULA is in <CDROM/ISO/EXTRACTED FILES>:\sources\license\en-us\_default\ultimate

taken from the build 7077 EULA

EULAID:Win7_RC.1_Ult_NRL_en-US

If MS is just now asking testers to test upgrading by deleting 7, reinstall Vista and then reinstall 7 via upgrade I would guess it will be several months before we see a RC1. Hopefully before the beta expires.

Just my guess.

I never did a clean 7 install. I installed my first build 6801 as a upgrade, and they are just now asking people to try the upgrade path?
