Well thats what I want to know if its diff as I cant get on thier servers
to get the RC1.

EDIT= An unknown error occurred while processing your request.
This is most likely due to a connection failure. Please try again.

Try Internet Explorer if your using a different browser. Had the same problem on Chrome.
 
IE just sat there trying to load the page - both the 32 & 64 bit versions. Looks like the servers are getting hammered :(

Edit - both pages just sprang into life, downloading both now at 2-5 MB/s each :)

Just downloaded it from MS and the MD5 number is the same as in the first post in this thread, so if you can get it from other sources just make sure the MD5 number is the same and you fine to go! ;)

Edit: Sorry forgot to add its the 32 bit.

Thanks man ;)
saves me getting errors from MS

EDIT= Is that 64 or 32bit or both mat :)
 
Yup as long as you have build 7100 and the hashes are the same as shown in the first post then you have the RC build.
 
Wish CMedia would get their Windows 7 drivers out. I can't use the OS on my desktop yet because my Auzentech Meridian vista drivers aren't compatible with w7.
 
Currently maxing out my 14Meg line grabbing both 64bit and 32bit disc simultaneously. I've refreshed the page where it gives you the product key and it looks like, as with the Beta, there is only about 10 different keys for each version. They're all VLK ones of course so it doesn't matter if each one gets activated a million times each around the world :)
 
This is the fastest download I've ever seen. It's fully saturating my 24mbps ADSL2+ line, should be done in ~20 minutes. I am under 200m from the exchange.
 
I'll install this on my computer ASAP. Have had a quick look around for drivers and have found ones for my graphics card from ATI. However, Creative and Intel don't have any on their website for my chipset and sound card. Can I assume that these will be integrated within the Windows 7 installation? Also, what about network adapters etc?

Starting on March 1, 2010, your PC will begin shutting down every two hours. Windows will notify you two weeks before the bi-hourly shutdowns start.

Is this normal with RC releases? Not that it bothers me as I will revert back to XP if W7 isn't out by then, just seems like an odd thing for it to do. No doubt someone will hack it and stop that happening.

It'll be out long before then. In addition to huge speculation, one OEM has accidentally let slip that MS have promised them RTM by October at the latest. MS won't make the mistake of missing out on Christmas PC sales again.
 
I can't get passed the active x java install - does anyone know what the name of this plug in is and where i could d/l it from rather than through the windows 7 RC download?

I've tried 10 times now and it just hangs - i'm sure it's because it crashed halfway through the first time it tried to install it (the java app not windows 7).

I'm hoping with the activex pre-installed it will just allow me to d/l windows 7 without any further problems.
