some of u might remember i was asking on the behalf on a fren a while back regarding conversion to original vista ultimate for his pirated rig in preparation for sp1 and just 2 days back, he called me to his house, said no need to go ori liao for now.
apparently, MS has been half hearted in implementation the OEM crack detection, as my friend downloaded a variation of the crack, run it after sp1 installation and continue using vista sp1 without any problem.....
heck he even installed it in front of me, and now his system properties really show vista sp1, still with an oem key.
now to those using pirated version, pls dun ask or pm me where to get it, i wash my hand on it, just want to put it up for discussion. hope it's not against the rules, and if it is, please remove my post.

using `ehem` version...can instal sp1 through WU

p;s-dun ask me how i do it...this is my privacy

Tried that as well, didn't work. Weird thing is when I tried to play it in XP the game also crash. Gonna reinstall it later.


Crysis performance b4 installing SP1, high settings and not very smooth. After installing SP1, can play at very high settings at average of 30 fps.

Another issue with SP1, it's showing my cpu speed at default eventhough I overclocked it from 2.66 to 3.3GHz(415x8). Anyone else got this problem?

Added on March 23, 2008, 1:53 pmMy Index score no problem... Using Seagate 7200.10 ST3320620AS SATA2 as main windows vista and WD Caviar SE16 WD5000AAKS SATA2 as personal data storage

ur sata 2 is wat brand and model.. if seagate then u shud have a white jumper on ur seagate hdd and u shud plug that out to get sata2 performance... by default the white jumper is plugged into the harddisk for compatible sake, activating at sata1 only...

Does the score really matters? It's just numbers. If you want 5.9, get two Raptor-X run it at RAID-0.

1 raptor is enuf... ... the score reflect to ur performance.. so 5.2 vs 5.9 means ur hdd perform slightly slower...... take note for seagate user to take off the jumper for sata2 performance....default came with jumper on....

you don't need that to get 5.9

Mmmm. Are you refering to the demo as well? Because I am. I suppose if you have the full version then maybe you're patched or something. I don't know. I looked a bit online, seems COD4 sometimes have issues with RealTek on board audio drivers, so I guess maybe that's the problem, and as this is the demo I'm talking about, there's no fix. haha. Makes me re-think my interest in getting the full COD4 though.

Does anyone know if i fresh install vista... what update do i need to get before i would be offered sp1 in WU?

Why not you get a copy of Vista DVD with SP1? That will save you the trouble of updating it again later.

any idea?
cant update it keep on pop up
i already change to english form regioan and language

using Windows6.0-KB936330-X86-wave0
