Just wondering what else I need to do to prevent this from happening again. I've turned updates to manual download and install. I got 971033 uninstalled, and have the Software Protection service disabled. Is this what I should be doing? Missing anything? Thanks in advance.
I don't know what method you are using to activate but it ain't much good if kb971033 is flagging it as non genuine i would try and remove the current loader and use Daz loader.
IIRC I used Daz loader originally. Like 1.7.2 or something. I think I screwed it up by running the new 1.9.2 a couple weeks ago to change to a different key... In any case, when I click remove on the current one I get: Using drive z: Removed loader from the boot code. Failed to install trial key (Ultimate) I think I will unplug my other drives before I try to reinstall, but is that what I should be trying next? Reinstall Loader? Also, does it matter which Key I use? I know you have to use the same SLIC and Cert but what about Serial? Is there a better SLIC/Cert/Serial to install over another?
did you uninstall the previous loader before installing the new one? No i dont think there are better slic/cert/serial they do what they supposed to do equally
