    I'm a bit surprised at how many people do updates.

    I've always been too scared to and am always afraid of something messing up my install.

    The updates usually patch security exploits, so I always update.

    Although once I install this windows 7 December OEM edition I think I may turn all updates off as it seems it will only cause trouble...
    Sons have you confirmed that you can download updates past the KB971033 update and it not affect your your crack?

    I can confirm that. It works past that update.
    I've installed the version pointed out and then additionally used removeWAT. Did this on 3 different installations and all are working like a charm.

    Is removeWAT necessary or did you just go crazy with patches lol

    I'm most likely going to install the December BIE release, put auto updates on off, and then update manually everything except KB971033.
    Then any new updates I'll wait till they are confirmed safe.

    removeWAT just removes the activation stuff....has nothing to do with patches...

    Skiz, I've been using auto updates since "launch day" with a loader and NEVER have become un activated, well I did with the "first 7 loader by what's his face, same guy that makes WAT" and was using Ultimate...

    I used installed Pro launch day and used some loader, then moved to the DAZ one like a few weeks later and have every update installed Use the Windows Backup if you must, or just create a "hot image" and just use the image to make everyback as you had it

    Intergrated are pointless in my opinion unless you do a lot of "fresh installs" but with today internet speed you could re-download the upates pretty quick, or just store them locally....or use V Lite and 7Slimmer (in NZB index)and intergrate and remove what you don't want/need

    Just successfully formatted then loaded windows 7 oem December edition.

    I turned automatic updates off, I might just leave them off and not screw with it.
    just load some kaspersky on it and I should be fine I think.

    Just letting you know, I have had the RTM since June/July timeframe and I guess one of the cracks I did makes the OS think I have the RC, as it's rebooting every 2 hours now =S

    I'm gonna do a fresh format with the recommended download and hopefully no additional cracking is needed, and it won't think it's the RC.

    PS Stay away from strange optional updates! Also, the forums aren't viewable in Chrome.

    If you got the patience to stay on top of all the cracks and stuff more power to you. Paying $50-60 one time to keep Windows 7 (and my pc) happy without having to compromise safety/performance is worth it.
    See ya in another life, brother.

    I wish it was $50-60 here in Canada =S
