So how do you actually register and download the beta? That site only has info on windows 7, and can't see it on the downloads page.

I don't know.. I thought it would show on the download page today since it was suppose to be realised at 00.00 PST according to another post, but since I not been able to access the download page I actually don't have a clue!

Download Windows 7 Beta

Partners with a MSDN or TechNet subscription can download Windows 7 Beta now. All other partners can download Windows 7 Beta starting 9 January, 2009 at 12:00 PM Pacific Time.
Link https://partner.microsoft.com/40084742?msp_id=Windows7

Which means its not until 8PM tonight, and not 8AM as it said in someone else post!

Cheers
Tom

So do you need to have a partner account to get access? As far as I can see you need to be part of a registered company, and can't register as an individual.

I work as a System Tester so would quite like to try the beta.

i myself was confused yesterday because the MS website said come back on Friday afternoon (which would be around 8-9pm our time) to get the beta version...yet a few on here were quoting a time of 00:00 PST (8am our time)?

maybe Ilikefree was just teasing everyone!

I'll paste what it says:

'Due to very heavy traffic we’re seeing as a result of interest in the Windows 7 Beta, we are adding some additional infrastructure support to the Microsoft.com properties before we post the public beta. We want to ensure customers have the best possible experience when downloading the beta, and I’ll be posting here again soon once the beta goes live. Stay tuned! We are excited that you are excited.'
