Stupid Vista Beta...

[pheonixashes]

A couple months ago, I got the beta version of Vista. Unfortuntately, now it says my licence will expire in 2 days.

Which sucks.

I have to go out and either buy a new version of Vista, or buy a new graphics card and a bigger hard drive, as my gaming computer also will have the Vista liscence expired in 2 days.

So, two questions:

1. Anyone else have this problem?

2. Anyone know how to solve it other than backing up my files and getting a new version of Vista/putting all my stuff on my X.P. Operating System? In case it helps, I'm running two operating systems on one computer and Vista Beta on my gaming one.

Vista itself is nor stable nor compatible enough for actual use IMO, especially beta.
Furthemore I doubt beta is legal now that the actual OS is released...

You will most likely have to do a reinstall XP or normal Vista, yes. Other possible solutions would include thing that we don't really support in here.

A lot of improvements have been made since the preview editions were released. I haven't had any stability problems with the final released version and even old programs like Starcraft work ok...
