    I just recently got windows 7 ultimate 7600 16835 RTM from a P2P network, i installed it, works great, very beautiful OS, 30 days left. I am not familiar with installing OS's and working with BIOS mods or even the BIOS in general, im what some would say..a noobie. So i got the the hazar act8vator and the orbit, along with the orbit+hazar for ultimate only, did what the instruction said, rebooted and it took me to a black screen that said (im sorry i cant remember exactly) something about files have been changed and digital signature cannot be verified,
    File:\windows\system32\winload.exe
    Status: ox0000428
    Info: windows cannot verify the digital signature for this file
    So i press F8 from that black screen, it takes me right back to the same screen, try to repair with the ISO disk but it wont repair, only option is to completely re-install it again, im sure atleast a few other people have had, or are going to have this problem so i started this thread in hopes of ways to prevent or fix this.
    I am on a dell inspiron 1525 laptop

    If you have read the forums people who have Dell's or Hp's have had major issues, mainly with lo*ders. Your probably going to have to go the HardMod route meaning mod your Bios and flash it.

    Maybe someone here has your same model.Hopefully they can provide some insight on if they used a lo*der or if they had to get there bios modded.
