can you rephrase that like I'm an idiot? ie I'm not quite clear what this option is, nor who my "vendor" is since my computer is unbranded...

The motherboard's brand/vendor. But that won't work if the motherboard doesn't have SLIC2.1 with the proper data in it (can be modded by using modified BIOS ROM).

Nouse, just to make sure, you installed with UAC disabled, yes?

so I probably should be using just A8N-SLI not premium or deluxe then I imagine. well fuck, that isn't on any site I can find.

so, what happens after activation expires? should I just go back to vista for now? can I re-install win7 and get another month? will the same thing apply when the retail copy comes out?

You can do this 4 times to extend your grace period up to 120 days:

Code:
slmgr.vbs -rearm


Do this only when you are on your last day to maximize the grace period. Smile

thanks Smile MB is probably 3-4 years old and bought secondhand from an auction (real auction, not ebay), so I don't need to worry about a warranty Wink

I've decided to just do a full re-install when my 10k drive comes.. Then I'll have 3 drives for storage and 2 IDE drives to crap..

Guessing sticking the OS on a 10k drive will help speed things up a bit.. plus the IDE drives are oooold.

Well, I finally upgraded my XP (yes, xp) straight to win7, as I skipped Vista (had it still in my laptop).

I'm blown away. I would have never believed that it actually feels a lot faster! Maybe newer programs are more adjusted for Vista/win7, but the overall funcionality still feels really smooth.

You are just another MS lackey promoting Windows 7 here. No way in hell that Windows 7 will be faster than Windows XP on the same hardware.

Nope, fortunately with Vista, the edition of Vista is decided by the key used during install, so no need for silly DVD version hunting (like with XP). Smile


As we all know there are only two versions of Windows XP: Home and Pro. Everyone got Pro so you can have only one installation CD.

It's free so why not just get ulitmate and have it all?

I would say you don't need anything more than Home Premium but as you said, Ultimate is free, so go for the gold.

I just installed windows 7 pro RTM 64bit a couple days ago. Been noticing that I've been getting alota network problems ever since. When I am browsing the internet, some pages would just fail to load, and i'd have to keep hitting refresh and it would load. Also some sites are loading very slow for some reason. Never had these problems when I was using Vista 64 bit. Anyone else have these network related problem with windows 7?

Regarding the various loaders I wasn't a big fan of Hazars loader so previously I used one by "Untermench" or how he spelled it but as it hasn't been updated in a while due to what seems to have been a conflict between him and Hazar I uninstalled it and tried this one instead, works great and is very easy to use.

EDIT: Also, 90 day trial of Enterprise.

I can't say much about Hazars loader but this one allows you to choose one of several SLIC providers (Or what to call them.) but without extra logos appearing in the system menu or such, plus you can then choose one of several keys (Or add new ones.) plus a option on how to activate such as if you use a bios mod or if you prefer a software mod instead (Works just fine.) plus it's updated frequently and is quite well documented and user friendly.

I used Hazar's loader 1.5 and it worked just fine, no problem whatsoever. Worst thing that could happen is that you have to try another loader right?

Yep. Or, if a key gets blacklisted, you will apply the latest version of a loader that will use another key. Smile
