How can I install Micorsoft Vista Beta 2 without a DVD?? Can i use a CD instead of a DVD??? The Windows Vista size is very big

There's no way. Above they have said that Vista can be downloaded. This is true, but it's more than 3gb. You would have to download it and then burn it to, yes, a DVD.
The only way to go about this would be to buy an external DVD player or burner or an internal one if you are more technically minded.
Vista can be installed with an internal or external player. Before you install it, I recommend that you run the Windows Vista Upgrade Advisor from http://www.machet.com.au/blog/?p=108
I hope you get a chance to try it out. I'm using it now and it's fantastic. Good luck!

Guys he just said he has no DVD, Vista is 1.x GB ISO so he needs a DVD drive.
Any reason you want to install it anyway? If you do not have a DVD drive I would guess your system is older, slower and probably has less than a GB of memory so Vista will run like crap for you not to mention it's BETA meaning it's not a fully functioning product..

instructions are on the vista beta website.

IF you're talking about downloading from their site, you can save it to your hard drive and then run it.
