You’re all being fooled!

The only thing that this hack can do is to screw up your activations and Vista itself!

I had alot of problems but I spent 2 days on it and figured out how to fix it.

**My problem was, everytime I changed the files I got the unauthorized change made error and had to reactivate and it wouldnt take my ultimate vista key (genuine from retail) nor would it take my server 2008 enterprise key.

FIX:
My vista was sp1 and server 2008 files were from sp2 version. I installed sp2 on my vista and now it works 100%.

To activate windows over the phone, use the command SLUI 4 in command prompt with administrator rights.

I own a MSDNAA license of Windows server 2008 and a License of Windows Vista both 32 bits.

I did sucessfully all the steps you mention, just in the final step after the reboot I introduced key of Vista in spite of 2008. Since then all the time my vista says that my windows is not activated and I can’t activate it by internet, it redirects me to microsoft web to purchase a lisence. I restored the backups and rebooted trying to use my original serial and it didn’t work. I aquired a new key of a new windows vista as I can with the MSDNAA and it didn’t worked also, I also tried to activate Vista with activators found in internet. There is no way. I am very angry. to gain just 1 GB more or ram I have now the annoying unactivation.

Please some help if it’s possible. I am experienced with computers

Windows vista is a memory specification that will be great but I prefer to use windows Xp SP2 and I use a vista skin for desktop display with only 512mb. I use the vista look in my desktop

Some folks out there that may not be as power user savvy as they may think should REALLY think twice about doing this hack. I thought I was up to the challenge and found that Vista decided it wanted a new/original product key and then proceeded to completely lock me out of the system. The warning about this occurring is NOT mentioned quite sternly enough, nor is there additional instructions on how to get you out of this situation. I’m not completely ignorant about computing, but my research turned up little with regards to this hack and any additional information on its proper execution. So be warned, you may find yourself having to do a reinstall and additional research on how to do this hack without probable additional headaches.

If the need to put the originals (pkey and token) back is needed, go into safe mode and replace the hack files back into their perspective folders. This may allow you to go back to square one (no harm, no foul). But if you try to circumvent the newer pkey and token like I did, you’ll be locked out of safe mode as well, with no fix. At least I came at this with ONE solution, albeit not what folks may want to hear.

Good luck.
