Vista cracks corrupt boot files
February 4th, 2020
long story short: that one didn’t work. tried the same crack (because i heard it’s good) from a different source, same result. tried several other cracking application, all have a similar result:
they all report a message saying patching has been sucessful and vista will be activated after reboot, which is the next thing i do. my computer starts doing the usuall hard-ware check-up up til “Verifying DMI Pool Data”.
i have no idea what this actually means, but usually it just passes this test within seconds. After applying a crack, however, it will either hang at that part, or go black and reboot, putting my computer into an infinite boot loop.
my only fix for this so far has been to insert my burned vista dvd again, get into repair, open up a command prompt and start throwing around fixboot and fixmbr commands, which results into vista booting up again, into it’s uncracked state (not activated, still in trial period).
help, anyone? :
try install vista automated activation v3 by paradox taht crack often helps
will give it a shot
EDIT: wow, it said it installed correctly, and after rebooting vista would actually start just fine!
however, still trial period 30 days.
maybe it will work if i apply it to a clean install
EDIT2: ok big thanks! it worked on an old version of vista, but when i uprgade to service pack 1, it turns into unactivated state and 15 days left to activate (lol i installed it just yesterday)?
