kms still works after updates on my business 64 bit edition.
my timer stop still ok! (32bit)
i installed the ultimate extras, regular updates and a few of the language packs - no problems with the
timerstop crack yet (vista ultimate x86).
oh, i tought they released dreamscene along with these two extras, but i did not see dreamscene in my list,
so i tought it was because i use a leaked beta :p
but no... not released yet :d
i did'nt get the dreamscene extra either wtf?
wow... i used the antiwpa workaround by thehotfix.net, and then i updated with these patches and now its on
42776 minutes, before it was on 43195 minutes... i tried to give my machine a reboot, and i think its still on
42776 minutes...
anybody knows about some updates moving your countdown clock forward, but then it
actualy stops again?? :s
where can i get the language packs? they are not listet in my windows updates and i havn't downloaded them
yet. i just got the 5 security updates!
can't help you if you can't see them they were there a couple of hours ago in the list, but i did check the
site manually it showed the list and there they all were.
do not install :
- kb929391 - i haven't personally seen this one at all
- kb931573 -
apparently this doesn't affect the time stopper, supposedly, but i'll hold off i think

hey you all. i am running vista ultimate with the timer stop crack. last night i downloaded and installed the
ultimate extras and they work fine and the timer stop is still working. i didn't download those supposedly
security "recommended" updates because i figure that one of those updates may disable the timerstop crack.
i downloaded and installed all of the updates above (for testing), no problem guys. timer stop works just
fine...
aparently you ""may"" need to activate your copy of vista before you can get dreamscene dunno... but i
was surfing to see if anyone else ha dit and i read in acouple of places you needed an activated version stick
with the beta for now...
my thery is that microsoft is working on a work around ofr the timestop
crack.. and when/if (soon) they find how thell poblkish dreamscene with the anti time stop included -- ihope
to god thats not the case....
like the anti timestop apart of it

dream is about to begin. starting in february, users will be able to experience a new world of motion and
activity on their desktop, and we'll be here, ready with great new content for you to download.

lol timediff.
the dream is about to begin. starting in february, users will be able to experience a new world of motion
and activity on their desktop, and we'll be here, ready with great new content for you to download.
dreamscene, which lets users replace their desktop wallpaper image with a video, received its first
public demonstration during bill gates' ces keynote speech on january 7. it has also been featured
prominently during windows vista launch events around the globe. a community technology preview of the product
has been released as part of the vista launch activity.
however, the completed version of
dreamscene will be some time in coming. windows client director jeff putt told the australian launch event
that the final dreamscene code would be released by the end of microsoft's fourth quarter, which falls
mid-year.
even when the code is finalised, the majority of vista users won't be able to take
advantage of it. dreamscene is being launched as a windows vista ultimate extra - add-ons which only work with
the bells-and-whistles-packed ultimate edition. most of microsoft's promotional effort is going into the home
premium edition for home users and the business edition for commercial buyers

while microsoft has been heavily promoting its dreamscene video desktop as an attractive new feature in
windows vista, the software won't be finalised until mid-year, and most vista owners won't be able to take
advantage of it.
my vista system is not online. i need an place to download winvista extras and then thum drive them to my
other computer
can anyone help me?
i've backup everything just in case.
now i can confirm i've installed the 5 important updates
plus one language pack spanish. and the the 2 extras.
my computer still has 30 days. everyhting
working perfecly here.
except for the unusual bsod hat just few times happens due to the
timerstop.sys. but other than that it's fine.
i wonder why some people gets that bsod.
for
what i've found out when you go to the event viewer, vista shows a failure in auditing timerstop.sys. my
guess is that maybe that triggers a bsod, but again it happens 1 out of 30 reboots.
be careful that
the new updates make your computer synchronize time with microsoft, though, i've just unchecked that time
update option. just in case.
any comments on the bsod?
you can go ahead and download all
the updates you want. we are on the safe side.
ok guys, thanks for testing out that validation patch. i appreciate that. i've been duped by ms before with
updates. however, i seem to have encountered a problem where the timerstop.sys crack no longer works. i have
uninstalled the crack, then reistalled it, but it always says "0 timers stopped" can anyone help?
your should try again to re-arm into 2099 with command prompt then retry crack. btw i dont think that
synching time with microsoft will effect timerstop crack cause its just synching wat the comp thinks is the
time not the time when the crack was installed
after installing new updates i had the same issue... get the new timestopper and make sure u uninstall the
previus one. that should do the trick. mine gone back to same status.
so where is this new timerstop? for win 32 of course?
is that supposed to get rid of the bsod
that sometimes happened to me? see post above.
thanks
what in the hell is up with all these bittorrent clients....its not working with vista???? perhaps this is
the catch why microsoft aint giving shiet about patching the timer as long as no one can download using
torrent clients....is this the case?? or am i wrong?
installed all the updates except the lang packs and everything still works fine here. the bsod does irritate
me sometimes, but i had it once where it continued to appear at least 10 reboots in a row. had to uninstall it
in safe mode and reapply it but so far so good :)
after all updates installed (except the language packs) my timerstop doesn't work anymore !
i have installed windows vista ultimate x86, after update my windows, this continue working full 100%.
last night, i screwed up and got marked as "not genuine" this is because i read and followed old
activation news that uses the frankenbuild method. also, i downloaded and installed all of the updates. i
will have to start over and use the time stop crack which was working fine to begin with. well, if it's not
broke, don't fix it. :)
