JacoL Posted January 10, 2009 Share Posted January 10, 2009 (edited) Time to make you all jealous. xD Got a 32bit key within 3minutes of C4C. Ran 3 32bits, and 3 64bits. 3 32bits popped up, all with the same key. I am trying to get another one using another Live Account. I will check them tomorrow when I install Windows 7 on a separate partition. If I have more then 1 working one, I'll be sure to give it to someone on the forum. ;) Edited January 10, 2009 by JacoL Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/717592-windows-7-official-public-beta/page/102/#findComment-590395158 Share on other sites More sharing options...

If only the distance would affect the routing... I live in Sweden, but we still got pretty good routing to the US. 5h of C4C now, with a added 7 of manual refresh, this is ridiculous...

Sculay Posted January 10, 2009 Share Posted January 10, 2009 Ahh, my mistake with the tricky wording. Anyways, if anyone needs it that is the md5 hash for the x86 version I got from torrents.7000.0.081212-1400_client_en-us_Ultimate-GB1CULFRE_EN_DVD.iso f9dce6ebd0a63930b44d8ae802b63825 well so far it seems all of ours match.iirc MS will provide official hashes on the public download page? hope this helps EDIT: Forgot to link the source of the picture that i taken it from https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/subscripti...ds/default.aspx Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/717592-windows-7-official-public-beta/page/102/#findComment-590395218 Share on other sites More sharing options...
JacoL Posted January 10, 2009 Share Posted January 10, 2009 So basically what I did in order to get my key was: 1. Load 6 pages, 3 of them on 32bit's URL and the other 3 on 64bit's URL. 2. Select the Error string of each page. 3. Apply a custom 1 second interval to each page with all the change warnings enabled. 4. Come back awhile later, if one of the webpages redirect to Windows 7's main URL, your session expired. I got mine in about 5-10 minutes, but many might not be as lucky. :( Edit: I got a 64bit one now :D Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/717592-windows-7-official-public-beta/page/102/#findComment-590395220 Share on other sites More sharing options...
devize Posted January 10, 2009 Share Posted January 10, 2009 Well I've been trying c4c for 2 hours plus many hours of manual refresh and still yet to get a key, but luckily some kind person posted me a spare key that they got which I'm yet to try. I will leave c4c on and if I do manage to get a key I will gladly post it in this forum Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/717592-windows-7-official-public-beta/page/102/#findComment-590395222 Share on other sites More sharing options...

(Still just kidding, but after 5h, from testing 50 tabs to 2 tabs, different intervals, it gets annoying to say the least).

JacoL Posted January 10, 2009 Share Posted January 10, 2009 Leechers get everything. xD Nah... you have to be lucky and have a good connection that can outperforms others. Its all down who gets there first. Going for my third now, I wish you luck on your side too. :p I could easily be collecting many keys if I built myself a little C++ application, but it's to late in the night for me to think. ;) Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/717592-windows-7-official-public-beta/page/102/#findComment-590395238 Share on other sites More sharing options...
