Hi, I would like to know whether is there anyway I can burn the .iso file in CD format, with multiple CDs for example ? Since I don't have a DVD Burner and virtual drive software can't work in DOS, bootup mode right ?

Any suggestion besides ways as above ? I prefer clean installation rather than upgrade from XP(with virtual drive for example). Does Vista support installation thru network drive ?

Thanks.

why don't u just do a dual boot Vista and XP..
U can do a clean installation of Vista on fresh partition by mounting the ISO in XP..
provided that u have enuff HD space lah.. cool.gif

So, only certain selected technical testers get a RTM key? I've been hearing different version of information from various places. Some say beta keys can be used. Some said no keys needed. sweat.gif

ya, the most active Beta testers will likely be given RTM/retail key..
i.e testers who actively submitting bugs.. lots of useful bugs blink.gif

People have managed to activate the leaked version of RTM through some simple methods and make it appear to be a legitimate retail copy. But microsoft told the public that they will find a way to deactivate the leaked copy some time later. Using a non legitimate copy is always not as nice as using a legitimate copy.

mengsuan..
