Then it still means a reinstall yet again.

I hope everyone read the notes as to backup your data.

That some things may not work.

You may experience frequent crashes of the computer.

Do not install on your main computer.

And so it goes on.

Solution: dual boot windows 7 and Vista. When the family aren't looking I'll partition the hard drive and install Vista on it. That way, if I'm not able to install the next betas or RC's they can just easily switch to vista.

Huzzah!
