    I've got a question - how do you install the language pack? I've downloaded the iso file but when I put it via Alcohol 120% into the virtual drive, I can see only folders with languages (for ex. cz-cs) bud no setup.exe or sth. like that...can you advise me? Thx!

    How to install different language from language pack on your Win7 Pro

    Ok, I've just found the solution and it works, so if you want to use different language instead of English and have the language pack iso, try this:

    1. Run cmd line as Administrator

    2. Write consequently these commands:

    Code:
    DISM /Online /Add-Package /PackagePath:C:\LangPacks\cs-CZ\lp.cab 
    
    bcdedit /set {current} locale cs-CZ 
    
    bcdboot %WinDir% /l cs-CZ
    Of course u have to use valid path where you extracted "Langpacks" folder from downloaded iso... and replace "cs-CZ" with your desired language (see the content of langpacks folder)

    3. Run regedit and remove en-US key from:
    Code:
    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\MUI\UILanguages
    4. Restart your computer and enjoy your new display language of your Windows 7 Professional ;-)

    that $30 deal isn't too bad...except it's home premium. I wonder if they ship you the actual box or just let you download an iso.

    Is anyone willing to share 1 or 2 of their keys with me? I signed up for ACM and they promised me I would get Windows 7 keys with my MSDN membership, and then they e-mailed me telling me that they can no longer fulfill that promise.

    I am ACTUALLY a Computer Science student at a University. My school is not enrolled with the MSDN program, which is why I signed up for ACM for the 19 dollars.

    If anyone has some extra Windows 7 64b Professional LEGITIMATE keys, that they aren't using, I would sincerely appreciate it. Thank you very much!

    And you will.

    You bought a 12 mth sub and during the next 12 mths Win7 will become available... so all is good.

    It has been removed at the moment due to worldwide abuse... this should settle down in a month or two and 7 will again be available for download.

    So don't worry, within the life of your sub, you will get 7 from ACM.

    It is home premium -or- professional for $29.99.

    The professional option is linked from the home premium offer by the link;

    "Need to join your school's network domain? Click here"

    It appears that this is a pre-order and you don't get anything until 10/22. It also looks like it is electronic delivery only.

    It sucks that my uni doesn't have msdn, and the student offer here is £30, thats about twice as much as the US.
