I had a virus, reinstalled windows. Key didnt work. forced to use trail
ok well being me I already had vista SO why the f*** would I pay for another?

I thought of using one of those vista cracker tool thingys to activate my system
it saud succesful, ...asked for restart
So I did
computer booted up to the black screen with blinking _

it stayed like that....for about an hour till I said F*** it and turned it off and tried again
NO
I tried pressing F8, nothing happened

Here comes the fun part

I had the windows vista on a disk, So i booted from it
I tried running system restore, restarted, it didnt work

omg, My only option was to reinstall and LOSE EVERYTHING
I cant afford that
I have 2Pac remixes I spent ALONG time on

I didnt know I had a boot section patition thingy
So I installed this new windows on it

Install drivers, pragramms you need, cut out your songs from old window & delete it. Nothing lives for ever, even vista.

This post makes me feel bad and stupid ^^
I found my answer by Installing Windows 7.

Strange as that maybe, it skips the black screen of death and goes to the boot menu.
So I just launch Windows Vista and it works!

So I've been doing that ever since.

Anywayz thanks tho.
