Windows 7 SP1 Public Beta Released

Jacee said:

Well it was only around 20 MB's to download. I signed up and accepted the agreement a few days ago. I lost my download after it was only downloading at 3Kbps ... then I find it in Windows Important updates I have no clue what happened there. It also doesn't say "Evaluation" in the lower right hand corner, like when I Beta test SP2 for Vista.

Watermark usually shows up after the first or second reboot of the computer.

They have 2 ways of downloading I believe. Installer that runs so it gets offered thru WU, and the ISO, manual install.

Thanks Ab ... I have the correct product KB976932, had me thinking I was updating to a service pack that I didn't download and install yet

No problem. Nothing to worry about. :)

There are ways to remove the watermark, I did on an earlier one and all seemed OK after.

well just installed the Sp1 Beta for 7 x64
i started this thread, but then found out about this one.

here is the proof:





note:
I recomend downloading the iso, the windows update method did not work
It will ask you to uninstall uncompatible language pack, for example: Romanian
It will take about 45 minutes to 1 hour to uninstall.

If you found this helpfull in any way please add to my rep.

Downloading it now:) man its a few steps to get this file..wow

ionbasa, your 'product key' is showing

There are ways around the net to get rid of it.

Don't think that's what she's asking.

Not sure why his says test mode, mine says Evaluation Copy like yours.

That's what I was asking ... test or evaluation copy
