I got sme rebooting Problems :)

[tju2an]

I will loose many of my steps in my troubleshooting by reformatting, so I want to be 100% that the problem is the OS, then I will go over to Windows7. My three legal Keys are for other computerbuilds in the future, and it's Vista, which I won't use on  a gaming rig

Well, we are done here then it seems.

We will not continue to provide troubleshooting with a pirated OS.

Of course he's going to say he's got legal keys - we already told him he's not getting help otherwise.

I've never understood the thought process behind using pirated software.  You never know what's been done to it.  Plus it's impossible to get support for.

And then brag about it! You should see some posts by people (mainly young people) who use pirated stuff - they're defiant ("well, it's too expensive, I can't afford it, and I needed it" or "everyone does it & it's available"). At my forum we shut these threads right down. I recognize we're a little more strict than most other sites, but I won't put up with it.

I agree.  If I can't afford I will wait until I can(this rarely happens).  Nobody 'Needs' software that badly, if they do then there are plenty of FOSS solutions.

Is there any way I can prove that I actually got the keys for you? I have amny computers, but just one which is currently using Pirated software, and that's being solved right now. I am testing Windows7 instead of usin pirate software, and how do you know when I have upgraded to Windows7 or not?

1) One is enough
2) Because I'm not stupid

Anyway, others can do whatever they want in this thread, but I'm done with it. Good luck with your system.

Here's my new plan. Tomorrow I will upgrade to the Windows7 RC x32(86)
It is legal, it was downloadable from Microsoft until the 20th of August, is this isn't solving the problem, do you guys have any idea what the problem could be?

Yes, same here.  I don't like smacking my head on a wall.

some people hack pirated software just so it doesnt work correctly
thats because people that pirate software also like hacking and writing viruses and spyware
you should get a legal copy soon

[tju2an]

Installing it today, and I think the problems is caused by an USB port, got a Blue Screen which told me something about USB?.sys

Thanks anyway
