Vista RC1

Hi,

I downloaded the 64-bit version and have got a product key from
Microsoft. I have 32-bit XP and so can't upgrade to 64-bit as I
originally planned to, unless I buy the full version. So, I now want to
try the 32-bit version but I didn't download that originally.

Is there any way I could download a copy legally?

Hi,

"Legally", no, as it's no longer available from the only legitimate source.
There are plenty of alternate channels that it can be found at, though there
is no guarantee of what alterations to the code might have taken place. See
if a friend has it and copy their disk. It's your key that matters.
