no you can't. It has an expiration date and that's that. Either upgrade or go back to your old OS

Type winver into search. I will bet you are starting to time out. If so the only way to keep working is to upgrade to 7100 or higher.
The beta's stop working on Aug 1

Upgrade to RC if you want to do this legit, if you don't upgrade to the newest (7264) which i am pretty sure runs better than 7048 ;)

If you love 7048, you'll love some of the other builds just as much or more.

you can modify the 7100 iso from Microsoft to allow you to upgrade from 7048... It's very simple (you modify a file called cversion.... super easy) ... Generally I wouldn't ever recommend upgrading, but since it's your computer and not mine... heh... Actually I upgraded my x-gf's machine from 7022 to 7229 just a few days ago...

You don't even have to back it up... Just don't format or delete the partition... The windows installation will just move everything from your last installation into a Windows.old folder...

Hi Reno

You will not be able to do an Upgrade install from 7048 to the RC builds, you need to do a Clean install and start again. You could use the Windows Easy transfer utility to get your pictures, documents, etc, transfered easily I believe (click start, type windows easy transfer), I believe it will see another partition as a drive it can transfer from, but I haven't done a full test on that yet.
But it can't hurt to try if you want to create a partition for a new build, this way if it doesn't do it you just transfer them manually. During the process it says from a "USB or External Drive", but I think it will do it from a partition also.

There have been numerous stability and other performance changes in the newer builds so I recommend to AT LEAST get the RC 7100 build if you want to continue using W7.

Since it's obvious you don't have any issues downloading leaked copies I'd just go to 7229 (You can use the RC or Beta keys and activate it to use til mar '10) or 7264 (you can't activate this with RC or Beta keys, but you can use it for 120 days by rearming it every 30 days... How to extend the Windows Server 2008 evaluation period)
