It's official: Pirates crack Vista at last |
Posted: Sun 04 Mar, 2007 |

A genuine crack for Windows Vista has just been released by pirate group Pantheon, which allows a pirated, non-activated installation of Vista (Home Basic/Premium and Ultimate) to be properly activated and made fully-operational.
Unlike cracks which have been floating around since Vista RTM was released in late November, this crack doesn’t simply get around product activation with beta activation files or timestop cracks - it actually makes use of the activation process. It seems that micros0ft has allowed large OEMs like ASUS to ship their products with a pre-installed version of Vista that doesn’t require product activation – apparently because end users would find it too inconvenient.

I've installed vista on VMWare and Virtual PC and the crack works as described. I don't plan on installing the OS any time soon though. |

I've seen this in a couple of places and there is no mention of 64. So I assume it's only for the 32-bit version. But I'm sure a 64-bit version will come out soon. |
