It's not like we r stilling the software since it needs the key to be installed. I did install it but didn’t see any difference yet from previous built. Performance score is the same. I did an upgrade instead of a clean install to see how it behaves. Later on I'll do a clean install and see what happens.

Got my copy last night. had problems installing from the DVD, so I copied it to the hard drive and ran the setupo from there....no problems. Jim

Microsoft suggested to burn the DVD copy at the slowest speed possible to maitain the quality. I burnt mine at 4X and it worked fine.

[crabby]

They suggested this because they realise many people purchase poor quality media. For eveyone out there... burn the DVD at the highest 'certified' speed for your media. All my DVD-R's are 'certified' 16X with a 0.01% error occurence per disk so I always burn at that and have never had an issue.

I compared, and using the Download Manager is much, much, much faster.

I tried using the download manager and kept getting a server error. I downloaded it through the browser, took one hour. It worked well.
