Vista RC2
 

Anyone know when it runs out if it hasn't already? I signed up for it but went back to XP, I'll be getting the full version in a few weeks and was hoping to get used to it again before I buy it.

June or July i think you get 30 days before you have to activate anyway but you wont be able to upgrade to full version (I mean you will have to do a full install)

start/run
Type in winver and it should tell you your expiration date.

If its past anyway just set bios date a couple of months early and still get 30 days

Oh yeah, I'm cool with that, I just want to get back in to it again. Cheers Zingmeister, favourable repulation (sic) on it's way....

its not installed Russ is on xp asking if its worthwhile installing RC2 before he gets a full version (correct me if im wrong though)

Soz - quickly read the post and went to Google. I'll consider meself suitably ignored for trying but dying though. :erm:
In any case, found some people were saying July 1st, while some mentioned May 31st. I seem to recall mine being June 1st though IIRC.

afaik the 64bit RC2 version I have here at work will lose vista around the end of may so yeah Zing is correct as per always.

getting sick and tired of seeing that zing is always right.
