I can't seem to get Vista x64 version to download properly. I'm using the Windows Vista download link (http://download.windowsvista.com/preview/beta2/en/x86/download.htm) and when I download the x64 version its only a 13.7mb ISO. The x86 version seems to download OK (I let it run out to 100mb of downloading).

I have seen several threads after Googling, but they all say "your download was corrupt" or something like that...I can't find any other way to download it!

I think there was actually a torrent out there for it at one point. might search for that. Dunno how I d/l it, but I got rid of it 2 days after installing it b/c it was buggy as hell. Installed the x86 version and it ran decent...didn't have any of the problems the x64 did either.

Didn't the beta already close?

I started downloading the x64 version and it did the first 75MB fine using the download manager before I stopped it.
