Excellent, thanks for the confirmation. I figured it was the same because the file size is the same. :)

How long is the RC good for when does it expire as I dont want to format in a month or whatever. Takes me about 3 days to set computer up the way I like it lol!

MS says: The RC will expire on June 1, 2010. Starting on March 1, 2010, your PC will begin shutting down every two hours. Windows will notify you two weeks before the bi-hourly shutdowns start. To avoid interruption, you’ll need to install a non-expired version of Windows before March 1, 2010. You’ll also need to install the programs and data that you want to use.

LOL. Do you hate Microsoft in every way or something? Are you a Linux or OSX user?

punkbuster will kick you if using the 64bit version, i get this "error: Unknown Windows API Function 131131" there is work arounds for the 32bit version apparently, but i'm since i'm using 64bit so i cannot confirm it works.

eh I'll just wait until full support happens.
I don't want to waste time screwing around with it.
