Finally it is getting fun around here again. Notice how we are involuntarily installing this update. For us hard core people, this stuff is fun. I have not been anticipating a release this much since Win7.
I have BIOS MOd and still genuine! What I have said the whole thread. BIOS Mods cant be disabled from MS. I tell this the whole 90 pages of this thread!
My Computer with Ultimate x64 and ASRock Mobo with HP Key and Cert got validated as "Genuine". At least that's what Eventlog says.
Nah, this is good publicity for M$, they need developers because M$ cannot find all the bugs but developers can. It's like with xda-developers, M$ makes a buggy mobile OS and developers find and remove the bugs (M$ than leaves them alone). That way we get our way and M$ gets publicity and sells the product.
Can someone clarify the kinds of update types in Windows Update? I know there are Critical ones, which fixes security leaks. Then there are Optional ones, like Language Packs, and video card drivers. But what does recommened vs. important updates mean in: "Give me recommened updates the same way I receive important updates." checkbox? In which part will KB33 appear? Actually what does this checkbox do? It's no way installing all the language packs for all Ultimate users, but then I don't know what are actually recommened updates.
This thread has become really silent. I hope you guys aren't non-genuine now hah. Seriously though, any new info about WAT?
still all is well on all my systems with bios mods. the daz loader is the only one to be killed off now 4 systems going fine with bios mods
The only thing MS can do is find a way of blocking the loaders. As for the rest that us a bios mod there is nothing they can do.....

settle down listen, in the annals of hacking the hackers always have the upper hand. If something is worth going after it will be hacked. back in the day the large "C" band satellite dishes (receivers) were hacked with a waxed in chip to receive all the programs like hbo, sho etc for free. Today there are hacks for directv and dishnet systems. Its the old rule of supply and demand. If there is a demand there will be a supply of hacks. The alarms on cars, homes, businesses and the simple door lock is an example of WAT. Its to keep you out. But as we well know ALL those systems are broken into and defeated. It just makes it a little harder for the everyday person to circumvent. with software what happens is the demand goes down when prices fall for the particular product. If Windows were to cost $10 or $20 nobody except the real techie guys who have to do this (its in their blood) would give a damn. This thread would be 5 pages. Its the evil empires duty to create WAT or there will be anarchy. Problem is $M has very little competition in the OS field so the prices will stay high ($100+). What the hachers have to do is beat them at their own game. they should create an anti-wat that checks the wat servers every 90 days.. regards... PennsylvaniaRon \\\\|//// ~ÖÖ~ ----oOOo-(_)-oOOo----
must say a brilliant post i agree MS has to be beaten at its own game, there are definately some very brilliant people to beat them, why just anti wat come up with an OS or if that's toomuch mke linux the in thing for the future and lets all dump MS
