Just login to your hotmail account and don't log out. Then try the technet link again. That way you don't need to do the login bit which helps you get a bit further :)

Just need to run the MS gauntlet to get a proper key.
Before i get slapped by admins. MS do not care what media you install from. Just that you have a valid key. I downgraded a laptop from vista to xp. Got asked if i wanted to buy XP media from MS for the downgrade. Told them i had a XP disk. Got told ok just use this new key then.

Sorry, should have quoted digit as that was a response to him. I'm still getting to the bit where you enter your details of name, occupation, what version of windows you currently use. Then it goes to "server busy" when you hit submit.

how would you have known though? i presume they had more than one server and no ruddy product key to hunt down that meant you HAD to go to that one server

At least you can select your version etc off here but it takes you to the profile.microsoft.com site which is being hammered like fratgirl at a kegger. :P

yeah, iv kind of come to that conclusion.. checking the news sites for any news about it because this really isnt working, they should have known that this wasnt going to work and 2.5million is looking like shrapnel compared to the folding stuff that would be needed for this what am i talking about :|
Re: News - Windows 7 public beta now available to download
The problem is no one wants to give up because they want to be in the first 2.5 million. So it's just a bunch of people refreshing the page over and over like me. I bet no one has even managed to reach the page where they actually get the key yet :)
