Official Windows 7 RC Available Right Now!

[z3r010]

Clean install. I stuck in a new Seagate hard drive (blank) and hit go. It was all going so well and then it stopped :huh:

It's a dvd issue, try reburning at the slowest speed or if that doesnt work I'll burn you one off and you can pick it up.

First, recable your DVD and hard drive, ensuring that the hard drive is
master. Then run either Memtest 86, Windows Memory Diagnostic, or use the
memory test in BIOS if there is one available.

Also, set your BIOS to 'optimal' settings..

Hello Kings,

The 7106 version is a hacked modified version from some 3rd party source other than Microsoft. You would want to install the Windows 7 RC (build 7100) version instead from the link on the first post of this thread to have the official version directly from Microsoft instead.

Hope this helps,
Shawn

actually microsoft sent me the download link to the 7100 RC to my email.....i downloaded and install it but i was using build 7100 for a couple of days untill i switched to build 7106 and now back to 7100 again.....lol

According to Microsoft, they are not limiting the number of keys issued.

I believe i read on Wired Mags site or similar page that we will be able to use the RC until June 2010.

Anyone notice ANY difference between this "official" RC1 (build 7100) and the "leaked to torrents" release of the same build. If not I have no reason to commit my bandwidth or even the few cents to burn yet another DVD. If there going to be an "official" release of Windows 2008 Server R2? I'm running the leaked version at the moment. Took awhile to find the direct ISO download site - sorry - forgot it now. Some of these torrent sites are a ripoff as far as I can see charging fees, which could be like variable rate mortages!

If the hash for your build 7100 matches the hash posted by MS then the file is identical.

 

[wguimb]

If the hashes and CRC match, they are the same absolutely.

if you are talking xp mode its a seperate download
Xp mode beta

Wm player 11? Is part of 7 I think

I use vlc so I havent even looked at it

Also I noticed no difference from 7077 also
Goes to show other then tweaks 7100 and 7077 were very close

.dlm sounds like an extension the download manager puts on there untill the file is complete, i would check to see if it is.

Hmmm I used Firefox to download the 64 bit this morning. Only took couple hours.
Since I just read this post about how the download is failing all I can say is I just started another download instance of the 32 bit to see if it works. Like I said I'm using Firefox. I.E. 8 seems to time out for me. The Download Manager that tries to run fails on I.E. but works fine on Firefox.

alter the last part of file name, delete the dim it should end with iso

This extension belongs to the download manager, and it indicates an incomplete download or a download that is in progress. When the download has completed successfully, this extension will disappear and you will be left with the standard .iso file, which you will need to burn to a DVD.
