Windows 7 Beta question.

[63083]

OK. So my mom has been using the original Beta (not the RC) for a long time now. But in the past week, it has been giving daily warnings that tomorrow the Beta will expire. Should I install the RC on her computer or just ignore these warnings? I need to know soon because it says it expires tomorrow. Thanks for any help.

You need to install the RC if you want to continue to use Windows 7. You will get random crashes and your key will become invalid and it will be shut off once the beta time is up.

Beta expires this year, RC expires June 2010.

Well, if you ignore those warnings, her computer will reboot every two hours and then finally fail to boot.

"Starting July 1, the Beta will start to reboot every 2 hours and expire Aug 1st,"

Yep, it will just become inoperable, you better backup any important info and format and install the RC.
