Problem using Windows Update with Windows XP x64 Preview Edition

Greetings, I'm having a problem with Windows XP 64-Bit Preview Edition and
Windows Update. A visit to Windows Update yields an error message regarding
access to the page to "Administrators Only". I have tried logging in as the
Administrator, creating a new account with administrative privileges, and
using the "Run As..." command on the Windows Update shortcut on the Start
Bar, and unchecking "Run with Restricted Access." I have tried turning off
DEP under System properties, disabling Windows Firewall, and my Proxy. I have
tried turning security settings down to the bare minimum, and using the
Windows Update Troubleshooter. All to no avail. I am still experiencing the
same error.

If you know how to correct this, please share any insight you may have
regarding the problem. I'm running an AMD Athlon 64 3000+ CPU and Windows XP
64-Bit Preview Edition, version 2003, Service Pack 1, .1218.

Thanks in advance.

Whoops, got a time out and rewrote the message again. Sorry about the double
post, all.

I get the same problem with the same hardware, using Windows 2003 Server
(beta version for AMD 64bit)

I get the same problem with the same hardware, but using Windows 2003 Server
for AMD 64 bit (beta version).

Same problem here, it times out and gives me a link to here for
troubleshooting.
