Default Xp Pro Trial

I went to Microsofts webisite and typed in XP PRO TRIAL.
I clicked on the link that was for xp professional x64 trial.
I filled out the registration form and when I clicked continue it would not load the page. I repeated this about 3 times and the same thing happend.

Is there any other place were I can download a free copy of XP Pro as a trial?

Thanks.

Not sure if you knew this, but XP x64 is a version of Windows designed for, and which only runs on, 64bit CPUs. I also tried the trial registration but the page after you select your contry isn't working. Maybe Microsoft are having server problems and this should be fixed shortly. However, I don't think you can legally download a trial from anywhere else, and if you can, you would still need to complete the form to get an activation key.

And legally, there are no other places where you can download it.

On November 12, 2006 in your post (link here) you stated that you already had a copy of Windows XP, and Windows 98, and Windows ME. What happened?

Windows XP and Windows XP Professional is the same exact platform. One just has more advanced security and network features than the other.
