Windows Vista RC1 Questions (Quiet Easy :) ) by -DiStUrBeDzOmBiE- on 09-14-2006 at 09:26 PM

Alrighty, I just got an e-mail from Microsoft informing of the release of Windows Vista RC1 blah blah. Anyways, It told me this "If you ordered a DVD kit for Beta 2 you will receive a new DVD kit containing RC1 in approximately 2-4 weeks." I have the Beta 2 DVD kit but im not sure if its the correct one.

Heres a picture of the box just for u guys to check i have the right one.

Here is the questions:

Q: Has Microsoft taken any money out from my profile with the card registered to get the update DVD? Basically, Will they ship it to me for free since I paid for the Beta 2 copy already.

Q: Will the Windows Vista Standard theme be included in the RC1 package?

(I know this is a theme but I've heard it will be on windows Vista) Here is a link to know what im talking about http://www.deviantart.com/view/36106264/

The reason why I wanted to know about the standard theme was because my graphics card isnt compatible and I wanted to use the standard theme instead of the gray one in the Beta 2.

Thanks if you guys answer them :)

They just give you this stupid grey theme which looks uterally ugly.

I know the link was for a XP theme but they copied it from the vista theme. Im saying will that theme be included in the RC1 disk?

If you have a graphics card, use it, if you dont have one, it shouldnt make any differnce.
