Terry Booth45 said:nothing worked... ran that scf thing in the command prompt just like the guide said, but nothing... didn't find a single error...

If I pop in a Windows 7 DVD and reinstall it over this current setup, could that fix things? Maybe it'll clear out those errors...

won't do squat if you format the drive

man, idk how to put this...

it’s basically a joke at the expense of people who don't know their way around a PC or a car (no offense intended)

I mean, what's the worst that could happen? My PC's been running hot for weeks straight just downloading torrents and I'm still fine 🤷

Nice one, killer build!

killer idea (kind of like back in the Napster days)

Windows 7 using 2GB of DDR2 RAM... only about 20-30% usage

hey there ☕

I grabbed an activated version of Windows 7 online
It works fine on all my other PCs (they're all activated)
except mine!!!!!!
I did a totally clean installation of Windows 7 Ultimate 7600, not just an update
Tried everything... no antivirus is blocking it, wiped the whole drive, tried with and without updates, but it still says it's not activated, even though it works instantly on every other machine.
Anyone got a clue what's going on?

Nobody's gonna help you since we aren't supposed to talk about illegal stuff here.🤷

Hey, that speaker icon in the bottom right corner... does yours say 100% too?

I honestly don't get why people trash Vista so much. For me, it worked totally fine 🤷
even now, a week later... still running smooth as can be.

signature 👍

anyway, just wondering if win 7 would run on a 1.5 ghz processor with 512 mb of RAM?
it's for a laptop

The Windows Firewall service should be set to start automatically.

thanks

it opens in Firefox too

Every time I boot up my Computer, I get this pop-up saying my firewall is turned off.
I just toggle it back on and everything runs fine... but why do I have to manually kick it into gear every single time the system starts up?

It's the Windows firewall; I used to run Outpost.

Windows Media Player vs VLC

for everyone running an RC:

Keep those expiration dates in mind: Pls plan ahead for when the RC expires. You'll get two weeks' notice, and then beginning on March 1, 2010, your PC will start shutting down every two hours. The RC will expire on June 1, 2010. To avoid interruption, you'll need to rebuild your test PC to replace the OS with a valid version of Windows, and reinstall all your programs and data before the software expires.
