Upgrade Beta 2 Build 5384?

Am I able to update my copy of Beta 2 Build 5384? I had this installed, but
I deleted it because I had trouble with the resolution, it kept defaulting
back to 640x480. I am hoping that an update will resolve the situation!
Thanks

Rosie:

How can you update it if you have deleted it?

But you can install a leter version. The latest available version is
RC1. Use the same key as before.

It sounds as if you were missing video drivers before.

RC1 and RC2 are no longer available on Microsoft's Website, unless you
are a MSDN (OS Level and Higher) or Microsoft Tech Net Plus Subscriber,
a Free RTM (most likely 120 Days) Trial (Final Product) will be
available on Microsoft's Website beginning December 1st, 2006, according
to Andre Da Costa (ActiveWin.com).

Dave, I'm not sure if you noticed this or not, but the Windows Vista CPP
Program is now Closed, and both RC1 and RC2 are no longer available to
the General Public, that is unless you are either a MSDN or Microsoft
Technet Plus Subscriber, and RTM will not be available to the General
Public until the Free Trial comes out on December 1st, 2006.
