There is also a way to not crack and activate, and do not need to brush the BIOS. Here we take a look!
1, the replacement method
principle: use some way to replace vista license file to use the test version serial number activation vista, is the earliest way
disadvantages: license into a test version, there is a time limit
2, kms
PW activate method principle: not to activate Microsoft's official server, but To activate the server that is set up privately, you can also use the vmware virtual machine to set up the activation server itself or set up an activation server on other machines in the LAN to activate.
advantages: no difference between activation followed by legitimate software, this method is more difficult to block Microsoft.
Disadvantages: only applies to b Edition (commercial version) and e edition (Enterprise Edition), and every six months to go before re-activated once. Moreover, there is instability in the private service, and maybe it will be closed someday, and it is more complicated to set up itself.
3, timestop (time stop) method
Principle: vista 30-day trial period before activation, this method loads a driver (timerstop.sys), Stop the countdown to 30 days, so you can avoid activation and try again.
advantages: simple, can be used for u version (Ultimate), no functional limitations (automatic updates, fantasy desktop, etc. may be used)
disadvantages: Vista inactive, although There are no functional limitations, but for those who are looking for perfection, they will feel beautiful. And it is foreseeable that Microsoft will definitely block this method after a future upgrade (such as sp1).
How to use: The recommended procedure is to not download the serial number when installing vista, and do not check "Automatically activate Windows when online". After installing vista, do not make any updates. Right click on TimeStop.exe and run TimeStop.exe as administrator. Then the computer will restart automatically and complete the crack. You can then run "slmgr.vbs-dlv" to verify that the countdown stops at 30 days.
Download timestop-v2
Uninstall: Remove windowssystem32 imerstop.sys
4, brush bios law
principle: this method is the brand of brush oem information into your machine bios, then you can use the oem version of vista
advantages: there is no difference
drawback with genuine oem genuine: because of the need to change bios, Brushing bios is difficult for novices, and it is dangerous, and each machine is different and not necessarily successful.
use: There are different ways in different motherboard
uninstall: bios then go back and brush attachment
: modify the BIOS Installation:
1. Modify AMI BIOS install Lenovo OEM version VISAT
2. Modify Phoenix Bios installation OEM version VISTA
3. Modify Award Bios installation OEM VISTA
5, softmod (flashless BIOS or dynamic BIOS) method
Principle: Before starting vista, first add slic's OEM verification data to bios, so that vista thinks your machine is an OEM brand model.
advantages: the effect can be achieved bios brush method, but there is no danger of the brush bios simple operation. There is no difference between the activation and the original oem vista.
Disadvantages: will flash every time you start a bunch of characters, affect the appearance, but also slow down the boot speed (although only slow down a little). And because this method needs to modify the MBR to achieve the effect, if you have previously modified the MBR, such as the hidden partition restore function of the brand machine or notebook, and for example, the F11 function of Acronis True Image, there will be conflicts that will not start.
use: (2 selected from 1)
A. Sign made using automatic dummy package. Http://mirror.gochina.cn/liuhang/SoftMod.exe
B. Do not want to use fully automatic, manual operation is not troublesome, it is recommended that a certain computer based friends manually modify, after all, do it yourself More clearly.
unloading method: run as administrator uninstall.cmd, but after this reboot may cause vista to be identified as pirated.
6, No. violence algorithm (strongly recommended)
Principle: a randomly generated sequence number to verify until the validation is successful.
Advantages: The true genuine serial number may be calculated.
Cons: The current algorithm is purely random, inefficient, not practical with this, the probability can be calculated number of essentially zero.
How to use:
A. Backup C:/windows/system32/slmgr.vbs, (if the number is successful, replace it again);
B. Use slmgr .vbs replaces the file with the same name in C:/windows/system32; (this step is more complicated, described separately below)
C. Record your product key, you can use Windows XP product key viewer (keyfinder.exe included in the tarball) to verify;
D. Start-Run, enter slmgr.vbs -ipk generate, a process called "wscript.exe" will start and may consume a lot of CPU resources It checks about 10,000 keys every 30 minutes;
E. Now wait, you may have to wait a long time before getting results. Wait a minute. After a period of time (hours or days), check your key with keyfinder.exe to see if it has changed;
F. If it has changed, the script has found a valid key. By the beginning - to activate Vista, enter the Run command slmgr.vbs -ato
7, OEM BIOS Emulation Toolkit
Principle: The analog OEM device drivers ROYAL.SYS BIOS, providing ACPI_SLIC information.
Advantages: action and less complex (I suppose after a few days there will certainly be automatic fool package), with no difference between genuine oem vista after activation.
disadvantages: Driver Installation for Windows, may result in reduced stability of the system, but this method does not support the current 64-bit vista. Since it is also a load driver like timestop, it is very likely that Microsoft
will block this method after some future update.
