I got the not genuine warning, black screen and watermark. Then I downloaded the 7Loader in the "New Windows 7 Activator [2010] [blaze69]", restarted, then ran RemoveWAT (the latest one from this thread) and everything is back to normal. I cant see the Windows Activation status when I right click My Computer -> Properties. In Lavalys Everest Edition, under Operating System -> Product Activation (WPA), it is showing as "REQUIRED". RemoveWAT has also installed the KB971033 update again. Are these normal? I am using Windows 7 RTM 7600. I have now removed AUTOMATIC update from Windows Updates.
Yes removeWAT has done it's thing. It does remove that activation info like you reported and yes it does download KB971033 but disables it. That is all normal dude.
how do i do a rearm? what does it do? and what does MGAdiag do? do i have to restoreWAT before i run the rearm?
Dude the rearm is done by this command: Code: slmgr.vbs -rearm As for MGADiag, it basically shows basic info about your system and I think it also runs the re-evaluation. As for the RestoreWAT question, you either have to remove it, yes or you can locate the file called: Code: slmgr.vbs.removewat and change that to the following to run the rearm command then change it back to how it was afterwards Code: slmgr.vbs Source: Direct PM from Hazar about this program
i can live with the watermark i guess. the functionality of windows 7 doesn't seemed to have been compromised. or am i wrong, and will see something not work in the future?
I have been talking about this for a while ^ ...I have/run RWAT successfully, but have tried the link in recent weeks, and it just doesn't work. I have used IE and FF. No go. What browser works with the link? And it's a standard link (supposedly), so why the need for a particular browser etc?
Like I said dude. It is probably more like something he has that is blocking all FTP inbound and outbound traffic. I know my grandparents have a router that does that unless you actually turn the firewall setttings down to "low". That is probably his issue. If he can get my download link to work then we figured out our answer. BTW yes the link does work fine here too. Tested it with Firefox 3.6.3 Edit: Why are you using the beta version of Opera 10? Did you have the issue with the table info displaying everywhere by any chance?
Yeah, your probably right about the router problem. I just want to answer his question about the browsers. I just like the Opera GUI. I haven't any problems at all by using 10.52. At any rate, I noticed none yet (so far^^). Despite that, my browser's still Chrome. Learned to love him. I couldn't get into it for a long time but now there are extensions, which makes him even more loveable (imo!). ;D
