Windows 10 Pre-Load ?

[Dicehunter]

Anyone happen to know when we can pre-load Windows 10 ?

Pretty sure reserving W10 preloads it and on July 29th it's activated to let you install.

I have it reserved but nothing has downloaded

I think it will probably download as an update you should get a notification when you can install it

Yeah I was thinking along the same lines, Would be good if I could find info for roughly when it will be available for pre-load though

Windows won't preload until RTM date. I highly recommend getting the preview though. It's awesome! ^_^

It won't preload yet as they haven't even selected an image for going gold (aka RTM image), until they do this, not a lot else will happen, and once they do select an image, you can expect roughly 2 weeks before anything is coming out as that is when they have taken out the debug code, re-tested the image to make sure they not broke anything with it, added any updates that the other images had in them, and then sent off to be pressed (DVD images made) and also released to vendors (aka RTM).
