With an OS that should be rebooting every two hours, isn't it time you bought a retail version?

It may due to the fact that the version you're running is in it's expiration stage, I'm not sure.

if beta you have to upgrade It's time to upgrade from the Windows 7 Release Candidate
this could be why

Do you have to enable virtulization in your BIOS.
On my two 7 rigs, one I did...the other I didn't.
Just a thought.

I dont know whtr its enabled or not.. but i have an Asus motherboard. I Read in windows xp mode downloading page that All Asus motherboards have Virtualization enabled by default.

Anyways can you explain how to check whtr its enabled or not in BIOS ?

I am having nearly the same issue on an AMD dual core machine with virtualization turned on in the bios, this is Windows 7 Professional 64 bit.

It completes the activation and 46x Meg file but the third file from Microsoft states that this patch isn't applicable. So I don't get icons in the start menu. It creates a Windows XP directory with a 1 gig file but no exe or application that I can run, best I can tell that third fail not completing gives me an incomplete install.

Help, as I need to get this running to run an old application I have.
