    Sucking it down now.

    We'll see what they've got new. Looks like they haven't cleaned up the GUI to much.

    Were they supposed to clean up the GUI? I thought it was just 64-bit instead of 32-bit.

    The CPP download is broken, hence the request for an alternate download link.

    Thanks Shorty. Unfortunately, build 1433 crashes on load immediately following the install. I tried loading it into safe mode, but the machine always reboots on "acpitbl.dat" and I don't really feel like fixing it.

    Same thing - dead link for me around 5p.m. Central Time March 6th, 2005. Windows 2003 server works for 64-bit when you try to download it. Come on microsoft - step it up! Let me know if anyone gets a working link for WinXP 64 RC2.

    Well I had no problem downloading the file, it is just Microsoft's website that is down. Try for example:
