It should email you a link to get the beta.

But you can also go and download the latest Stardock Central (www.sdcentral.net) and it should show up there in the games area assuming that you used your same email addesss when you ordered as you do for your account here (otherwise you'll just need to wait for the email send to you with the serial info.

If you are a member of total gaming.net do you get to be a part of the beta as part of that?

I'm not seeing GC2 anywhere on SDC. Could there be a problem with different accounts? I've had to log on here with my original GC account, which differs from the account I used to pre-purchase GC2 (since the accounts are tied to email addresses). I registered using the serial number from Stardock's email and I should have the latest SDC - 2.06a.324, build: 85. What's up, eh?

Well, the serial id is surely associated with the e-mail associated with the purchase.

You also have to set the "Show Pre-Release" check box to checked. It's located along the bottom of the SDC screen.

Make that three accounts. I used a new email address when I bought AP and kept that address when I pre-ordered GC2. However, I've never been able to use the AP account email address to log on to SDC, I've always had to use the old GC1 email address. SDC behaves as if I'm a Past Customer (updates aren't available to me), as does Wincustomize. Hmmm....
