This article introduces the relevant knowledge of "how to crack and activate Vista". In the operation of actual cases, many people will encounter such a dilemma, so let the editor lead you to learn how to deal with these situations. I hope you can read it carefully and be able to achieve something!

1. Replacement method

Principle: it is the earliest method to activate vista with beta serial number by replacing some license files of vista.

Disadvantages: the license becomes a beta version, and there is a time limit.

2. Kms Private Service Activation method

Principle: not to Microsoft's official server activation, but to privately set up the server activation, you can also use the vmware virtual machine to set up the activation server or other machines in the local area network to set up the activation server to activate.

Advantages: there is no difference between activation and genuine software, this method is more difficult for Microsoft to block.

Disadvantages: it only applies to b (business) and e (enterprise), and it has to be reactivated every 6 months. And the private server is unstable, maybe it will be turned off one day, but if you set up it yourself, it is more complicated.

3. Timestop (time stop) method

Principle: vista has a 30-day trial period before activation. This method loads a driver (timerstop.sys) so that the countdown stops at 30 days, thus allowing you to avoid activation and unlimited trial.

Advantages: easy to operate, can be used for u version (flagship version), no functional restrictions (automatic updates, dream desktops, etc.)

Cons: vista is inactive, although there are no functional limitations, but for the pursuit of perfection, it will feel the impact on beauty. And predictably, Microsoft will block this approach after a future upgrade, such as sp1.

How to use: the recommended step is to install vista without entering the serial number, and do not check "automatically activate Windows online". After installing vista without any updates, right-click on TimeStop.exe to run TimeStop.exe as an administrator, and then the computer will automatically restart to complete cracking. You can then run "slmgr.vbs- dlv" to verify that the countdown stops at 30 days.

Uninstall method: delete windowssystem32 imerstop.sys

4. Brush bios method

Principle: this method is to brush the brand machine oem information into your machine bios, and then you can use the oem version of vista.

Advantages: it is no different from the real oem.

Disadvantages: due to the need to change bios, brush bios, it is difficult for beginners, and there is a certain degree of danger, and each machine is different, may not be able to brush successfully.

Usage: different motherboards have different methods.

Uninstall method: brush the bios back again

5. Softmod (brush-free BIOS or dynamic BIOS) method

How it works: before starting vista, add slic's OEM verification data to bios so that vista thinks your machine is an OEM brand model.

Advantages: it can achieve the effect of brushing bios method without the danger of brushing bios, and the operation is simple. After activation, it is no different from the genuine oem vista.

Cons: each boot will flash a bunch of characters, affecting the appearance, but also slow down the startup speed (though only a little slower). And because this method needs to modify the MBR to achieve the effect, if you have previously modified the MBR, such as the hidden partition restore function of the brand machine or notebook, or the F11 function of Acronis True Image, it will cause conflicts and can not be started.

Usage: (2 choose 1)

a. Use the fully automatic fool bag made by netizens. Http://mirror.gochina.cn/liuhang/SoftMod.exe

b. If you do not want to use full automation, it is not troublesome to do it manually. It is suggested that friends with a certain computer foundation should modify it manually. After all, it is better to do it yourself.

Uninstall method: run uninstall.cmd as an administrator, but this restart may cause vista to be identified as pirated.

6. Violent counting (strongly not recommended)

Principle: randomly generate a sequence number for verification until the verification is successful.

Pros: it is possible to calculate the real genuine serial number.

Disadvantages: the current algorithm is purely random, the efficiency is too low, the following is not practical, and the probability of being able to calculate the number is basically zero.

How to use it:

a. Back up the C:/windows/system32/slmgr.vbs, (if the count is successful, replace it back)

b. Replace the file with the same name in C:/windows/system32 with slmgr.vbs; (this step is complicated, as described separately below)

c. Record your product key, which can be verified by using the Windows XP product key viewer (keyfinder.exe included in the compressed package)

d. Start-run, type slmgr.vbs-ipk generate, and a process called "wscript.exe" will start and may consume a lot of CPU resources, checking about 10000 keys every 30 minutes

e. Start waiting now. You may have to wait a long time before you get the results. Take your time. After a period of time (hours or days), check your key with keyfinder.exe to see if it has changed

f. If it has changed, the script has found a valid key. Activate Vista by starting-running, and enter the command slmgr.vbs-ato

7 、 OEM BIOS Emulation Toolkit

Principle: through the device driver ROYAL.SYS to simulate OEM BIOS, provide ACPI_SLIC information.

Pros: the operation is not too complicated (I expect a fully automatic fool package will appear in a few days), and it is no different from the genuine oem vista after activation.

Disadvantages: installing drivers under windows may reduce the stability of the system, and this method does not support 64-bit vista at present. Because it is a load driver like timestop, it is likely that Microsoft
