    Hey Guys,
    New to the forum here and I'm completely lost and clueless as to what to do. I been looking around and searching but I haven't been able to figure it out. I don't know if I need to mod my bios or what else is required in the process. I have a dell computer which I have wiped clean, deleted previous dell partitions that had XP on it and installed a copy of Vista Ultimate on. Unfortunately the key I obtained from a friend won't activate. Can someone please point me in right direction to which I can figure out how to activate or reinstall a clean copy that will activate on this computer. Thanks to everyone in advance.

    First, thank for the reply and your help. I found a modded Bios for my Dell 9150 after some searching. I went ahead and updated the bios, installed the dell xrml certificate and installed a new Dell Vista Ultimate Key. Got it up and running and activated as well!

    After reading your reply, I got to thinking, why not Windows 7. So basically do I just download a version of windows 7 and do the same as I did with Vista? How do I use Daz loader? Thanks again.
