RE: Vista 5308 Released

We have MSDN Professional level. I was able to download Build 5308 but I can
not find how to obtain the product key to install this build. I have the key
for "Longhorn Beta 1" but it does not recognize this key.

What should I do?

You get keys from the same place you download your iso's... after you login,
click on "Product Keys" at the top...

That is what I did but on the list it only show the "Longhorn" Beta 1 key.
How do i request for Beta 2 key? I checked and rechecked my typing and the
Beta 2 installation does not like Beta 1 key.

Mine is listed as "Windows Vista CTP Builds"... but I'm also Universal and
