Windows 7 Beta To RC Upgrade Instructions

you can update with build 7100 if your current build is 7077 without any tweaking of system at all. Just start the install and select the update option when it shows up and it will install the new version.

Guys i got 7100 installed as upgrade and it was done seemlessly. i'm impressed. never like doing upgrades but since this is a testing OS i dont mind.

any ways why does this 7100 not say RC on the build ? i recall vista RC1 said RC1

Hi there.

didn't you score a Penalty for Manchester United against Tottenham yesterday.
Didn't know you were a W7 fan.

Ye'p I'm surprised that it doesn't actually say Release Candidate on the build anywhere - just Evaluation version.
Maybe the Marketing people have got a few screws loose.

hi jimbo, yes i did score yesterday twice :) yes i am a fan of windows 7

or this aint the real RC?

I used 7057 and 7068 and this gives me lower score in the Windows Index, when i did the test aero was still activing...normally it goes to basic and does the test.

Guys ,what is expiration date after upgrade and clean install?
Is there a difference?

3/2/2010 it is! No matter what everybody else are gonna say - this is not RC!
I've made clean install on my notebook and date is the same ,watermark says evaluation copy! I don't know about you but i'm gonna wait May 5th and official release!
