There's only 10 or so keys circulating, there's not 2.5 million unique ones as I first thought.

Here's some of the one's I've received

GW224-PV282-VVH6H-9944Y-9873P
482XP-6J9WR-4JXT3-VBPP6-FQF4M
JYDV8-H8VXG-74RPT-6BJPB-X42V4
RFFTV-J6K7W-MHBQJ-XYMMJ-Q8DCH

They should work with either 32 or 64 bit.

thank you so much oli, just activated my copy on my new raptor

ste2425 · Jan 17, 2009

If you've been having problems with the Catalyst 8-11/8-12 drivers in W7 then you can get the W7 Beta Catalyst drivers here: http://support.ati.com/ics/support/default.asp?deptID=894

Here`s one to figure out. For the last few days , my internet connection has been getting choppy. Right now , it`s pretty much down. I`m just going to give it a couple of days to see if it`s an isp thing. So , to pass the time , I installed 7 on a virtual machine and as soon as it was up and running , the internet connection worked perfectly !

Thing is I can`t reproduce what`s unusual about it

Does work

Windows 7 on virtual pc

Doesn`t work

Two different rigs same router
Any other installation of windows on virtual pc or vmware

francis511 · Jan 18, 2009

Moot now - rebooted router and now works but just for a moment spooky !

Steam.. i had vista on it so i can play tf2 but upgraded it to 7.

MAGMADIVER · Jan 18, 2009

I decided to drop W7 because the ATI drivers suck and the gaming performance is subpar...however that is ATI's fault not MS'.....I am excited when the retail product ships because I think it will have quite a bit more polish on it. Besides the gaming W7 was faster and snappier than Vista in every respect.... Finally MS can create something that isnt a proverbial wet fart

frankie827 · Jan 21, 2009

so i decided to do some benching on 7
i scored higher on 7 with aero on than i did with vista with aero off

this was a really overlook of the beta

and i did post the last page of the review for a reason

MAGMADIVER · Jan 22, 2009

Well Im back to W7 as I decided to see where I went wrong....Now gaming on W7 is very smooth.... I dont know why exactly but all my games are running smooth... well beta products are a curious thing... 또봐.

frankie827 · Jan 22, 2009

ive got it on every rig i can

i thinks its great compared to xp im just curious bout one thing i ran dxdiag and it says im running directx 11 well thats fair enough on my desktop top i gues coz 4850's can handle that probably but on my lappy im lucky to play age of empires so how can it support directx 11?

just because you have DX11 installed, doesnt mean anything to do with your video cards capabilities or performance.

farlex85 · Jan 24, 2009

How do you guys think 7 would function on an xps from a few years ago w/ a Pentium M @ around 900mhz (it should be 1.7, it keeps downclocking for a reason I have not been able to discover yet, haven't looked into it too much though), 1gb ram, and integrated gfx, I think a 915/945? That's somewhere around the minimum specs I think, but it's my gf's laptop that I also use sometimes and I'm not particularly interested in putting an OS on there that's gonna slow it down significantly. Also I like the pretty stuff, so if that can't work then there is no point (I like the functionality of 7, but the look is what will really be cool for her).

ste2425 · Jan 24, 2009

care to elaberate? so it says im running direct 11 but im actually only running nine on my lappy? and if i had it on my desktop with my 4850 it'd only bo 10.1?

ShadowFold · Jan 24, 2009

DX11 is compatible with DX10.1 cards. But nothing uses it yet so of course you're not using it!

ste2425 · Jan 24, 2009

but isnt directx implimented on everything visual? i no im not using 11 its kinda obvious ifd you saw the specs on my lappy thats why i was wondering why dxdiag says 11 is there. One question then i wannatry out directx 10 ive finally got a card to handle it so if i buy a directx game crysis for example will i be playing it in directx 10 on windows 7?

ATI drivers are not bad at all, its just that its hard to get used to when it comes to driver cleaning Windows 7.

It only says dx11, cause thats highest version of DirectX you have installed

But you can still use dx 9 and 10 without a problem

And yes, you will be able to play crysis in dx10 on win7.
