thank god that have msdn operating systems level subscr

Thank God that I have a MSDN Operating Systems Level Subscription, with access to the Windows Vista Beta 2 Download via MSDN Subscriber Download's, because the Public Beta Direct Download Link's do NOT work, just FYI. The 32 Bit Direct Download Link only gives you the first 721 KB's of the 32Bit download, just FYI, and the 64 Bit Direct Download Link only gives you the first 13.7 MB's of the Download, also just FYI.

P.S. I still wish that Microsoft would come to their senses and let me back into the Private Microsoft Connect Windows Vista Beta, after all the only reason that I dropped out of it is, because Windows Vista Beta 1 would NOT work on my computer, just FYI. I guess I shouldn't keep holding my breath, however.

I had no problems at all yesterday downloading the 64 bit Vista. Didn't even drop off once ;o)
But I guess the servers are still getting a hammering.
-- Jane, not plain ;) 64bit enabled ;) Batteries not included. Braincell on vacation ;)

Download link worked fine for me (and about a million others). Patience is a virtue.

Mine did the same as you described at first but i tried it again a few hours later and it worked fine.

I am, however, providing feedback about Windows Vista's Public Download Server's, just FYI, which is Very Use Full to Microsoft, also just FYI! Fix your Public Windows Vista Direct Download Server's, Microsoft!

I don't know if this is just a coincidence or not but three time on using the direct link it would stop at exactly 2 gigs, and say the download was complete which of course it wasn't so I went to my internet options general tab, deleted the temp files, clicked on settings and moved the slider on the amount of disk space to use, over as far as it would allow me to and low and behold the download completed the entire 3.13 gigs. Try doing that in case that's the prob. Paula

Has the period key on your keyboard been remapped to "just FYI?" You might want to check for viruses, spyware, and trojans ;)
