Same, was using DTA but I think the servers are being absolutely hammered

Strangely, using tukkake I got 8MB/s on the x64 version (which is pretty fast) x86 download just failed, lots.

key servers appear to be down as well...

Guess i'll just try tomorrow

Takes about 30 minutes for an install, doesn't ask for a key until after.

Also configures itself properly for dual boot with Fista, dunno about other osses.

Apparently it is possible to dual boot with XP and Windows 7 but by the looks of it, you may have to fully format to remove the ghost of windows 7 in the boot up.

How're you finding it Berk? Tried any games on it?

Hmm, I are not at home to get this, but once I get back I will find a way.

I think it's the same with fista, the bootup thing is different to XPs (I bet you can install W7, then XP and horse XP's boot doobery to do its stuff.

I'm finding it mostly painless, I've tested UT3, L4D, CoD4 and WoW. all work fine.

Seems to be fine, some open GL issues with ATI drivers I think, but not much uses that these days.

well, i finally have got a 64bit key.

was using the check4change addon, its been checking every 2 secs for the last hour or two

fuck yeah got a 64 bit key

same!

After some use:

Specs: Q6600, 2gb ram, 4870x2.


Performance seems really good, but don't expect super low memory usage.

As far as I can tell, it uses less memory than Fista, but not by much, However, the performance is XP-like with that, so it's no bad thing.

Playing wow I have ended up with paging in very busy areas, but that game is a bit of a memory hog.

Basically: not as light as XP, but much better than Fista.

i've been running it on a VM, cleaning my laptop so i can install it on there.

Rumour has it, they're just releasing a few keys over and over today (yesterday's were individual)

Use at your own peril etc.

I have the 4th one on the 64-bit list. `

I've been given these so far...

Microsoft gave me that one too, Hmmmm

Gonna give it a go but first, I've never dual Booted B4 so is it simple ?(like me) and what about drivers for GPU etc?

W7 seems to setup dual booting automagically, so that's fine.

Should also have the video drivers on windows update, which is handy.

Well I don't know about that....

Tried it twice now and failed twice. It installs 100% with no apparent errors, Restarts itself (normal) then I Get the Dual Boot screen, select "Windows 7" and keep getting this..

Any Suggestions?

Google says fix your MBR (fixmbr and/or fixboot) from the recovery console.
I've avoided dual-boot issues by putting W7 on a different disk, so I just have to give it a boot order to switch. Unfortunately, that disk is SATA-1 and brings my Performance Score down to 3

Do what stoat said.

It's also possible you have a slightly corrupted burn, so that might be worth checking (burn at 4 or 8x for stuff like this)
