Re: Microsoft Targets users of Pirated Vista Ultimate
Maybe Microsoft wants from their users to turn back to Windows XP again.

Hopefully, It will put Microsoft in some hot water and maybe they'll see the light in Open Source OS's still making some profit/respect.
Re: Microsoft Targets users of Pirated Vista Ultimate
I had some problem like this but after installing Win7 in another HD... don't know how but everytime I try to access my Vista Ultimate HD as primary partition I get a message telling me that I need to buy a key and I have little access to the system =/
Well, at least Win7 is running better than vista but if anyone has a solution. I tried a lot of things already =/
Re: Microsoft Targets users of Pirated Vista Ultimate
Well for all having issues with Vista Ultimate, download the boot loader and it will be good :) As there not blacklisting the OEM boot loader.
Re: Microsoft Targets users of Pirated Vista Ultimate
I have a funny feeling this is mostly a misdirection on their part, and that its not about disabling pirated versions as much as its about accessing them to figure out the best way to disable them when SP2 is installed. So its more about how to configure SP2 to disable the highest amount of OEM fixes they can find and collecting information to allow them to do that before its release. Perhaps the RC release is a better choice than the final in that case.

Or maybe they want to be compensated for the work they've done.
Just a thought.
