stupid dell watermarks

They will haunt you permanently... muahahahahahahahahahahahaha!

ahhh....bittorent always gets u one way or another ...

well......my 32bit vista i got wasnt permanently unlocked like this one. And when i saw it i was like YESSSSSSSSSS PERMANENTLY UNLOCKED no more stupid stop clock timer exe hack. so i boot up 64bit. Welcome center comes up. HUGE DELL BANNER ACROSS THE WINDOW. AHHHH. I didnt build my computer to see dell blastered in my operating system lolol

You did buy your Vista, correct?

Oh for working beavers sake.

Go google "replace Vista < insert description here> screen"

jeezus.

wait what the hey do i search now???

i must be stupid...

no. iam not that retarded that i cant disable the welcome center screen. I am talking about there is a dell banner on the top of the welcome center screen.

Theres also a dell sign in the system info.

Those were the only dell marks i found for now...

Sooner or later... you're going to wish you had purchased it... it's already starting. Dell logos are going to be the least of your concerns.

And $500? Where did you get that figure from? Wal-Mart sells the Ultimate Edition upgrade for $299... Home Premium is even cheaper. You can use the upgrade to perform a clean install. Just because you don't like the price, doesn't mean you then have the right to go and grab it from a Warez site and start using it. Either stick with Windows XP or get Linux if Vista is too much money for your taste... don't make the rest of us pay the price. There's way too much time and money spent fighting software piracy as it is... and what you're doing is only going to make it worse.

lol....wow you guys completely dont know anything.


dell sends a vista cd when you buy a computer with vista on it.


so like any other manufacter who does that watermarked it.

REMEMBER WHEN DELL WOULD DO THAT IN XP???

No, it is NOT legit. That Dell CD is intended to be used ONLY on the Dell it was supplied with. You are NOT in any way entitled to take that CD and use it on a custom-built unit. Just because it installs and activates doesn't make it legitimate.

Whoa... you can use Dell OS CDs on custom computers?!

I thought they had it to where it searches for Dell parts before allowing installs.

Some advice, if you don't like it, then don't use it. If you're going to pirate it, don't come to us with questions. That's the downfall of pirating software.

If Vista costs too much for you, stick with XP Pro or go with Ubuntu.

microsoft makes money off of stupid people...just like apple cough cough itunes...

lol...

you are extremely crude to be asking for help.

I am trying to put mac os x on a pc. But I know that i am doing it illegaly even though i bought the mac software and a mac computer. Its not legal to use dell software on none dell machines. Many have done it, but they were smart enough to shut up.

As for your problem you can recreate those images.
however, you will have to pay to find out how as for i dont have the time to copy an entire book. Go to a book store and by hackvista. I dont have publisher info with me but it is a whole series of books covering all os including linux. The information you need is in the vista one. I replaced my default images with ones of my own. These files are built into the OS rather it is a dell version or not. You can extract or replace the same way for all.

not quit bragging about your ability to moralize your thievery and accept your faults.
