Big Kahuna Posted May 24, 2006 Share Posted May 24, 2006 If you have a MSDN subscription (like me) Vista Beta 2 and Longhorn Server 2 are both up for download... and rather quickly if I may add...

macprodan Posted May 24, 2006 Share Posted May 24, 2006 This ones a nice build still not as fast as it could be, i suppose this is understandable as the debug code must still be running under there and should be, install still takes long, but least its not as long as previous versions. Some nice screensavers in this version, sadly this is all it has for me,, still dont compare to OS X, but then again OS X is a real OS. Cant believe i said that, only a year ago i would have said Windows Was better, how naive i was. colonels1020 Stop with all the KFC you making me Unnnngry..

Silhouette Posted May 25, 2006 Share Posted May 25, 2006 Is this Boot Camp friendly without losing your OSX partition? Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/18251-vista-b2-and-longhorn-beta-2/#findComment-119240 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colonel Posted May 25, 2006 Share Posted May 25, 2006 I'm not sure about Beta 2, but I know that with previous releases of Vista, you would have to completely erase your hard drive to install.

Silhouette Posted May 25, 2006 Share Posted May 25, 2006 Yeah, I was just reading about that; however, I saw a post somewhere a few minutes ago that said if you had 5365 or earlier you would have problems. Ah well, my Vista Beta 2 torrent just went up to 330 kb/s, maybe I can figure it out myself by the weekend.

REVENGE Posted May 25, 2006 Share Posted May 25, 2006 Does anyone know if MS has put up a working copy of their Vista Soundblaster Live driver for the 64bit version of Beta 2? Also, wouldn't it be a better idea just to wait for CPP to start up before getting the beta? I would prefer a legit CD key.
