Ideas Man Posted June 8, 2004 Share Posted June 8, 2004 I'm not exactly sure, but traditionally it's 180 days or 60 days. No you cannot upgrade to the full version from a BETA. You must purchase it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EnglishRob Posted June 14, 2004 Share Posted June 14, 2004 The AMD64 version of Windows XP Pro I tried from Microsoft was a 365 day trial, however I couldn't get drivers for all my supported hardware so in the end I went back to standard Windows XP Pro SP1a 32-Bit.Rob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
supernovae Posted June 15, 2004 Share Posted June 15, 2004 Im currently trying to get my Windows XP 64bit to work.I have managed to find drivers for most, if not all, of my hardware and thought great now i can get started on getting all my programs to work The first thing i installed was Nero 6.0.0.3, it installed without problems but when i went in to burn a CD, i did not have the option to choose my burner(Liteon 832S) as the thing i would be writing the CD with. It seem that it just doesnt recognice it as a burner I tried to install Alcohol 120% 1.9.2.1705, but it seems that it wont even install. I think its somthing to do with the bus drivers but i just dont know enough about the area to work it out.Any idea on how to fix either of these problems?

EnglishRob Posted June 15, 2004 Share Posted June 15, 2004 Have you tried the latest version of Nero?If I recall correctly I had a few problems with my Panasonic DVD burner until I updated to the latest version.I must admit, I did enjoy using the 64-Bit XP, but I just wish the driver support was better, but I guess I couldn't expect much for something that had just been released on Beta.At least it worked better than Fedora Core Test 1 for AMD64 on my PC.Rob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
supernovae Posted June 17, 2004 Share Posted June 17, 2004 Mmmm, ok...i just went and downloaded the newest verion of Nero and installed it. When it starts up it says that i need to install BurnRights, so i went back to the Nero site and downloaded BurnRights. Installing it has had no effect that i can see, it still asks for me to install it when i start up Nero. Ithink it must be XP 64 not allowing Nero or any other CD/DVD burning programs access my burner. Thanks for the advice anyway Rob.Supernovae Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
