Hi guys,
I am a student and have access to the MSDNAA for my University, i have started downloading Windows 8 and has stuck at 90% and am in desperate need of Windows 8 to do some testing. Just wondering if there was an active link for the Windows 8 BETA? as i could do with it soon rather than later.
Kind Regards Damien

Booting from Windows 8 Release Preview DVD - error code 0x0000005D
location:
microsoft.com - date:
June 1, 2012
The screen is black with the following text in white:
Your PC needs to restart.
Please hold down the power button.
Error Code: 0x0000005D
Parameters:
0x030F0209
0x756E6547

Installing the consumer preview had no problems.
If I boot into Windows 8 (Consumer Preview) and run the Release Preview setup from the DVD manually, I get the "Your CPU is not compatible" error message. My machine does meet the requirements as far as I know: P4 2.6 GHz, 1.75 GB of RAM.

Inquiry re Windows 8 download, installation and activation

January 30, 2013
Hello: My first post on this forum – hope I am directing it to the appropriate discussion group. I purchased a Samsung Series 5 laptop in late October and am undecided about whether or not I should upgrade to Windows 8. I’ve been told that I can purchase a Windows 8 “Product Key”at the $14.99 upgrade offer that ends tomorrow (Jan 31st) but I do not have to do the actual installation when I purchase the key. Also, that I would have the option to download Windows 8 when I purchase the Product Key and have it sit in a folder until I decide to proceed with the installation, OR I can wait to download it at a future date of my choice (so long as I have the Product Key stored in an e-mail).

Windows 8 Update Problems Code 8007003
location:
microsoft.com - date:
April 3, 2013
Hello All
I was wondering if anyone can help me.
I am running Windows 8 (fresh on new machine) and have now started to have problems with Windows Update. It stops at 7% and then resets itself.
I am protected by Norton 360 Premium but have switched off both the Firewall and the Virus Protection during the Update process (no success).
I have also run the Troubleshooter (no success).
I have also tried what I believe is a "cold reboot" where it resets the Update history etc (no success)
Specifically, I have the following Updates that are failing:
KB2795944
KB2785220
KB2799494
KB2769165
KB2812822
The reason for all five failing is given as Code 80
