rollcage Posted November 11, 2006 Share Posted November 11, 2006 Vista RTM has leaked onto thepiratebay. RTM is the final version of Vista that will be given to OEMs. The build number is 6000, a manual change by MS to mark that Vista is "Windows 6.0". Initial performance reports have been that it is much faster than any previous build (due to removal of debug code i'm sure). one person has even commented that it is faster than xp. This is the full install DVD, with all versions of Vista included. Note: You will yet be able to activate this build as the activation servers are not working yet. when installing, choose to install without a product key. you will have 30 days from day of installation, but that should be plenty of time for a crack to appear. Since I can't post a direct link, go to thepiratebay and do a search for "Microsoft.Windows.Vista.Final-BillGates" (ignore quotes). Enjoy!!!

Proteo Posted November 11, 2006 Share Posted November 11, 2006 I'm used to keep my personal stuff (my whole user folder, mailboxes, and even my internet temporary files) into another partition than the OS's. So if I install Vista, configure it (drivers, programs and stuff) and then I do an image, will I be able to restore and use that image every 30 days or so? I do the same with XP, in order to save time not having to reinstall the whole thing, but I don't know if Vista will allow it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joe75 Posted November 11, 2006 Share Posted November 11, 2006 (i spoil you guys ) Thanks, I'm such a brat Proteo, if Vista doesn't have trial checks or something to regulate the "no key" install, I don't see why not Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rollcage Posted November 11, 2006 Author Share Posted November 11, 2006 Thanks, I'm such a brat Proteo, if Vista doesn't have trial checks or something to regulate the "no key" install, I don't see why not :pirate2: yeah, i'm thinking that a lot of people did this with other build of vista, so they could upgrade from one build to the next with a clean install and not lose all their data.

Order2Chaos Posted November 11, 2006 Share Posted November 11, 2006 There's a Vista RTM activation crack on TPB already , posted just a few minutes ago Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
br0adband Posted November 11, 2006 Share Posted November 11, 2006 While the release is the real RTM build, and the "activation crack" is working also, don't sideline Microsoft just yet. There's a reason that Vista isn't "official" for a long time to come - because they're prepared for this stuff that's already happening this morning. It'll be interesting to see what they pull outta their hats, but if you suddenly find your Vista installation won't even boot anymore, maybe they had something to do with it <hint, hint>. bb Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Metrogirl Posted November 12, 2006 Share Posted November 12, 2006 Amazing how quickly this has spread - it's hit the newsgroups now too. You can bet that Microsoft will be breaking their necks to fix that activation patch in the very first update... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RTM means Release to Manufacturer. Once it's on disk it's hard to change Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rollcage Posted November 12, 2006 Author Share Posted November 12, 2006 Isn't x32 and x64 and all editions all combined on one dvd? Hmm, I will check now. i know in the file in the download is one or the other. i don't know about the discs that you will have to buy, i don't think they could fit all versions of both x86 and x64 on one disc.

sev7en Posted November 12, 2006 Share Posted November 12, 2006 As far as I read both are on the same disk: anyway RTM leaked releases are Home Platium only? I haven't seem Ultimate yet... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paranoid Marvin Posted November 12, 2006 Share Posted November 12, 2006 Apple can fit an OS coded in 4 different architectures on one disk, so I don't see why M$ can't do it. Looking at the screenshots, it just looks like Media centre - the 2nd ugliest theme for Windows! Where is the glassy effects? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
