What did u use to burn that ISO?

Noobish question I know, but almost everything did not work in my case. Every app is burning the disk but it is not bootable. I checked the image integrity with it's MD5 and it is just OK. I can't get the problem here.

There is no sidebar in 7.. Just gadgets..

@DebSuvra...
I directly mounted the ISO with Daemon, and began installing it...i know thats little foolish coz it might have asked for Disk later, but it didnt ask...everything is fine save this sidebar thing

What happened to Windows Sidebar?

Alright, I've got so many keys that I don't know what to do with them. I just posted 4 on another board and have another three in addition to the two that I've kept for myself. If anyone's still looking for a key, post a request right here and I'll PM it to ya.

Requests via PMs shall not be entertained. I've had to clean my in-box twice over the past couple of weeks and it's not something that I particularly like.

On Windows 7 beta now and posting this from Firefox 3.0.5 on it

 

[Vishal Gupta]

Now Microsoft has finally updated the official Windows 7 website page with download links. Open following link:

Download Windows 7 Public Beta

Scroll down to bottom and you'll find drop-down boxes to select your language to download Windows 7 beta.

Both 32-bit and 64-bit versions are available in 5 languages.

Everything is running fine now and you'll not see any server busy error.

I get to the product key page and nothing happens when I click on Download Now. Firefox does some progress in the status bar and shows done. thats about it, nothing more, no pop-up window or downloads. Clicking Instructions opens in a new tab but not this.

using Firefox on Linux.

You need Windows only to download it or what...?

@blondie

Jesus Christ...when will Microsoft grow up...!!!!
