Today I tried to download and install Windows LongHorn Beta1 from MSDN
Subcriptions. It was good that during installation there was not much
information I need to enter, just a product key, computer name and
neither a user name nor a password.
BUT after installation, it kept asking me the login password for
Administrator??? I thought that I skiped some information during setup
then I tried again and sticked to the screen. But the same thing
repeated!

Could anyone give me this login password? I tried "admin", "vista",
"longhorn" and "BI..GATE" but nothing helps:((

Thank you in advance,
Truong2D,

I don't know about the 'beta' version, Truong, but Longhorn (Vista) is not
due out till late in '06. I wouldn't worry about it till then. The beta
version is sure to have a lot of bugs.

Not that you're wrong, but you didn't know anything about overclocking
and found not about it after doing a web search where there is TONS of
info about what overclocking is. If you are that unknowing [ignorant]
about computing, do you really think you should be answering people's
queries here?

Windows LongHorn Beta1 is NOT Windows XP.

For problems downloading from MSDN, try posting to an MSDN newsgroup.

Nope. Just pointing out to a noob that he should educate himself before
he should go around trying to educate others.

It was another thread from the noob a few hours prior to his post in
this one. One needs to learn to ride a bike before trying to teach
others how to.

If you downloaded it from the MSDN Subscription site you were given a newsgroup to where to post.

Post it there
