MegaSack DRAW - This year's winner is user - rgwb
We will be in touch
don't suppose anyone has such a thing?
(and a key, and knows that me using it won't bugger your copy on"validation")
I've been titting about with computer bits the last few days & built a new one. Thinking I'd like to use lots of ram sometime in future & so fancy a go at 64 bit. I'm on the W7 rc 32 bit at the moment & impressed enough to go shopping for the 64 but I'd like to make sure I don't hate that version first before I buy it (ain't cheap 😯 )
Which version (pro, ultimate etc.) are you looking to try?
Hi - pro or ultimate (so I can do 32 bit software if i have to)
(just been looking, think a key is for making a trial permanent rather than just trying out, so I don't need a key if this is correct)
I think I can give you an ISO. Leave it with me.
you're a lovely fella

I'm pretty sure they are identical. No?
dunno Graham - it's things like compatibility I'm interested in most (not buying any new hardware - beyond maybe memory - just for this)
[added] - what is the key code all about? I've got one for the 32 bit version I'm using but don't remember ever typing it in. Do I need one ?
You won't have any software comparability issues. You [I]might[/I] have issues with hardware drivers, but I've been using 64-bit Windows (XP and Vista) for years and I think those days are largely passed now, unless you have quite obscure hardware.

You are supposed to be in, or closely related to someone in education. I used my daughter's deatils to register but to be honest I'm not sure any checks are done.
oooh, Mr_C, you're spoiling us !
(I work & am registered at a uni)
(I think between you, you've convinced me so rockplough may not need to bother - unless you already have this to hand & ready to "go". Please only bother if a) it's really easy for you and b) you don't need to post a cd rom as I might just order one of those ^ instead)

so, presumably the next post will be someone offering me cash if I'll be good enough to try it for them !
cheers all
If you can get an ISO, it will allow you 30 days of any version before forcing you to activate, so loads of time to try.
