|
 |
Yesterday my Son told me I have to activate Vista on his new rig. I was like  . I installed that system 17th of May, now that's OVER A MONTH AGO!...right!. He "forgot" to tell me before 
Now is there a way to run any of the BIOS mods outside of the desktop (I think not) but anyho, asking just in case.
I guess I have to reinstall the whole lot...in a way its partially my fault as I said I would activate it right away (17th May) but he said "its ok do it later, I want to check out Crysis" I told him "remind me", but he never did until yesterday. Well there it is  .

Cheers, and I can run that without entering desktop? as the activation timer/deadline has locked that.
Actually I think thats what I am running on my rig...but how to run that offline, like I said.

Go into Safemode and run it from in there? Not to sure with Vista but with XP you could.

Just had a go at it now. I tried that last link from you $en$i, but as soon as i hit enter after typing slmgr -rearm (says that the command is not valid) or slmgr/rearm (says that i am not allowed to run that). Getting ready to reinstall VISTA here, no drama really, just takes a bit of time. Oh and I tried to run the crack in safe mode, no go.
