Placebo 29 Posted February 6, 2002 Installing a Beta OS is a bad bad bad bad idea, kinda like installing a beta DX, it seems like a great idea at the time, it works great, then a few weeks down the line the beta expires and you can't play d3d games anymore without an annoying popup box saying "this has expired blah blah", in short don't do it Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Placebo 29 Posted February 6, 2002 LOL well it always seems like a good idea at the time, I've signed up to beta test DX9, haven't heard back, maybe cos in the "reasons why you should be a beta tester box" I wrote that I was Bill Gate's love child Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

My friend has it installed, he says it works fine and he hasn't noticed any bugs. And it's a 6 months' professional beta. I'm not sure, maybe I should save my money till i have € 100 and buy the real Home edition. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
