The trial did not grant you access to the software downloads.

The Grasshopper Posted August 6, 2009 Share Posted August 6, 2009 No, 32 bit and 64 bit comes in different Iso, but one product key can activate 32 bit and 64 bit. so i have to dl both? that sucks. my speed is varying from 550 to 128 Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/807548-windows-7-rtm-now-available-on-technet-and-msdn/page/15/#findComment-591390924 Share on other sites More sharing options...
protocol7 Posted August 6, 2009 Share Posted August 6, 2009 I really hope you can pick the version during install. The only good thing I had to say about Vista was that it was "one disc fits all" (bar architecture) unlike the mess that XP introduced. But unlike the Vista listings, these 7 ones just show one version available in each ISO. vs There's no universal-looking Windows 7 (x64) - DVD (English) Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/807548-windows-7-rtm-now-available-on-technet-and-msdn/page/15/#findComment-591390928 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gio Takahashi Posted August 6, 2009 Share Posted August 6, 2009 It's really interesting the way they're managing this. My download of Ultimate x64 is proceeding quite well (~260KB... I've seen worse), but if I try to click a link to download anything else, it won't respond.I'm thinking there's some kind of code running back there to limit the number of clicks that actually make it back to the servers. I wouldn't mind grabbing Pro, too. Not what I'd call a perfect solution, but if it helps keep the site up for more users, it's not too bad, actually. Technically you wouldn't need pro, since each iso have the same sha-bang. You could try using pro key in ultimate edition. I haven't done it, so I can't really confirm anything.

Gio Takahashi Posted August 6, 2009 Share Posted August 6, 2009 so i have to dl both? that sucks. my speed is varying from 550 to 128 Well download what you think you NEED first. If your computer supports 64 bit, then go wild with 64 bit. if you need 32 bit, then have another computer download 32 bit while you download 64 bit and installing. The download should be done by the time y ou're done.

Thunderbuck Posted August 6, 2009 Share Posted August 6, 2009 This seems to be moving very nicely. I wonder if MS tolerates leaks to some degree because they siphon off some of the demand when these legit releases happen.

I think you can still download separate editions for vista, but that isn't the case for SP2 Yeah I think the seperate Vista editions are still there, but there was also all-in-one editions like that one I capped. But there's no such one in the 7 list. They're all single edition ISOs. Just hoping that after all the things they've done right with 7 that they don't go and blow it at the last step. I guess we'll know when someone tried to install Pro or Home off the Ultimate ISO or something like that.
