Got the x64 version of Vista 5472? All i've got is the 32bit version. Willing to pay for it.

Longhorn is the codename for next version of Windows Server.

"According to sources at Microsoft, the company plans to ship Windows Vista Release Candidate 1 (RC1) in early September. More important, perhaps, is that Microsoft still plans to release Vista to manufacturing by the end of October as previously planned, defying rumors that the company would delay Vista yet again.

Although I'm not at liberty to divulge the full contents of the message, Microsoft has placed build 5520 into escrow as the RC1 of Vista. This build will be released to testers and the public after the Labor Day holiday in the United States, which falls this year on September 4. Currently, Microsoft expects to ship RC1 on or after September 7.

Meanwhile, the release to manufacturing (RTM), or final, version of Vista is set for a September 2006 escrow and final release on or before October 25. We can expect a Longhorn Server Beta 3 release in first quarter 2007, an RC2 release in second quarter 2007, and the final release in the second half of 2007."

Some works, some partially and some just dont works. There's a trial offer of PC Cillin antivirus for Vista, and for NAV only the newer Corporate Edition version 10 compatible
with Vista.

U can try here!

If Microsoft sticks with the release schedule, October to November for manufacturers and January next year for consumers.

Currently only Trend Micro and its available free till October.

Use JRE 6 Beta 2!

Probably u installed Vista on the Sata drive which basically shows as the 2nd harddisk in the Bios whereas the PATA drive serves as 1st drive. As such, even installed Vista on the sata drive, the Boot Manager was installed onto PATA drive. U could either installed Vista onto the PATA drive or...onto the SATA drive whilst disable the PATA drive during installation.

A Microsoft representative confirmed that users may buy an OEM copy of Windows Vista at a substantial discount, provided they adhere to the terms of the license - which, incidentally, may mean providing support for family members.

In addition, users should still be subject to the same familiar re-activation restrictions as users of a retail Vista license and Windows XP, a spokeswoman said. Users can alter the PC's hardware substantially, but they will be forced to reactivate - not repurchase the OEM software - if they do, she said.

One system builder pointed out, however, that Microsoft's OEM license forbids the software from being transferred to a whole new machine, from scratch, once it is installed on the original target machine.

OEM copies of Vista began showing up this week at e-tailers like Newegg.com, for substantial discounts, which can run up to half off the price of a standalone retail copy of Microsoft's Windows Vista operating system. Microsoft is also offering its own in-house discounts, in the form of a Vista Family Pack, which allows the purchase of up to two copies of Vista Home Premium for $49.99, provided that a customer buy Windows Vista Ultimate at full price, through retail.

For those who don't need a full manual, however, the Windows Vista OEM versions offer substantial savings. Normally, such versions are restricted to "System Builders," not large corporations purchasing thousands or even hundreds of copies of the operating systems through Microsoft's volume licensing programs, but small mom-and-pop computer shops building individual systems for local communities. The license is agreed to when the shrinkwrap the package is sealed into is broken.

"System Builder software is designed for OEM system builders, and specifically for pre-installation on new PCs," said Elissa Brown, a Microsoft spokeswoman, via an email. "So, this software isn't really intended to be installed by end-users. OEM versions of Windows Vista that are delivered through the System Builder channel are licensed via a 'break-the-seal' model (in other words, the System Builder License on the outside of the software package is agreed-upon when the package is opened)."

Although retailers like Newegg have typically been prohibited from providing the software without accompanying hardware, Brown said this wasn't true. Readers of PC Magazine and dl.tv report that Newegg has continued its practice of bundling a token hardware component - drive cables, case screws or other knickknacks - as a way to offload any legal obligation.

"As long as Newegg is distributing the System Builder version of Windows Vista in an unopened package with the System Builder License adhered to the outside of the package, Newegg is not responsible for offering end user support," Brown said. "The party who opens the package (thus accepting the System Builder License) is required to offer end user support."

More specifically, "the system builder must place its support phone number in a noticeable location in the fully assembled computer system help files or end-user documentation," according to the terms of a publicly posted System Builder license posted to Microsoft's Web site. That version of the license does not specifically mention Windows Vista, however.

The OEM version of the Vista versions lacks a manual, but includes a "Quick Start" installation guide, Brown said. The Vista OEM versions will allow a user either to do a fresh installation, or to upgrade their previous Windows XP installation, she said.

Yeah currently OEM units came for the 32bit version only, the 64 bit version will come at a later time. Even the retail unit are for the 32 bit version with instruction on how to get the 64 bit version on the box.

Those FPP price are for today and yesterday only, specifically for "WOW" event.

If u're using proxy inside the "Internet Options" control panel,...try to disable it.

You'll have to take the alternative route then, via phone.

Heads up http://www.microsoft.com/windows/products/...ons/choose.mspx

Basically it combines everything in Home Premium and Vista Enterprise:

1. Windows Complete PC Backup and Restore
2. Windows BitLocker Drive Encryption
3. Networking Center and Remote Desktop ( if I'm not mistaken in Home Premium u can accept Remote Desktop from others but u can't be controlled)
4. Video wallpaper support
5. Multi-Lingual user interface support

"Your desktop background comes to life with Windows DreamScene(tm). When you download this Ultimate Extra, you can select a video for your desktop background the same way you select a stationary picture. You can choose one of the high-quality looping videos that we've included, or use a video from a company that produces content for DreamScene. You can even use your own video as a background....".

Due to some unforeseen circumstances, DreamScene has been postponed. But u can try to get the beta version here! It's for 32bit Vista though.

For Vista Ultimate users download your Dreamscene Preview now!

Vista Business have all the features as Vista Premium minus Windows Media Center, Parental Controls, Windowd DVD Maker and Windows Movie Maker HD

It does however includes IIS, Web server, fax support, encryption, 2 socket processor support, system image backup & recovery, offline file support, full Remote Desktop, ad-hoc peer collaboration capabilities....and support for this version will only ends on 2012.
