I think I have succeeded finally by using the 2099 method. I followed the steps required and when I checked the countdown timer, it shows: 43200 minutes (30days) Does this means the crack was successful?

I can only go for reduced functionality mode, which means you get an explorer window. What step am I missing here? I did all the timer stop stuff, but since I am not really activated in the first place, how can it stop the timer. Hope you can help. Penguin, I installed

What step am I missing here? I did all the timer stop stuff, but since I am not really activated in the first place, how can it stop the timer.

Hope you can help.

On my Gigabyte motherboard, setting it to 2099 would roll over to 1999. So the highest I could set it was 2078. Set it in your bios, save it, then go back in to your bios and make sure it did not roll over... if so... step back another 10 years.. ie.. 2089, 2079, etc... don't worry, you'll be dead by the time your PC reaches that date anyway. Then do your Vista install, enter no key, and when you are at a desktop, turn off Automatic updates, then set the date back to normal, then run TimerStop. Then run the cmdline check consecutively to make sure the timer stopped. It will take about 30 seconds each time your run the cmdline check for the window to pop up, so you can see the time. It does not have to be at 43200, just not moving down. If you have problems, try it with a 32 bit install of Vista first. I've verfied it works. Haven't tried it with 64 bit yet, but the new Timerstop 2a version supposedly works on that as well. Older versions won't be able to crack the 64 bit version. Note that you can do still do manual updates... of the dreamscene desktop, and holdem poker.. just if I were you, avoid the hotfixes and select manually only the updates that have been verified to be safe of any countermeasures.

However there will be a limitation on how many applications you can run once the start menu and other features are restored. Usually 3 applications open at once is the limit have fun.

If I use systeminfo per this article, I see my correct install date. I'd be interested to know what others who have applied this crack see when they run systeminfo.
