Vista - Files From: Vista 5308

I am looking for a way to run the screen savers from Windows Vista in
Windows XP Pro.

I have found one place which claims to have made a patch but requires the
screen savors from build 5308, in order to work. If anyone here can help me
please do, or at least point me in the right direction. Also if this isn't
allowable, how does someone such as myself whom doesn't have a MSDN account
get to beta test Vista on my Home Systems.



Thanks

Unlikely to be possible without extensive & dangerous hacking.

Read the earlier thread with the Public beta download locations.

Nah it's not possible unless you have the source code. Best just not bother
with it (

It works.... Somone has cracked / patched the PE area of the exe to make it
work.
Read: http://www.aeroxp.org/board/lofivers...php?t3413.html

Now what is needed is the scr files from the build 5308.
Can someone please post them... Just copy from your installation if you
still have it installed.
Simple as that.
