Paradox Vista activator + WGA crack
link: original article - section: download
Mrx report this activator in our forum by words: "This is the newest Activation+WGA crack, you can download all updates for now from Windows Update."
This is better than Timestop because you can download the updates which are only available for activated windows Vista Installations, and if you have Timestop, you don't have an Activated Vista. and it is released today!
How does it work?
Microsoft allows large hardware manufacturers (e.g. ASUS, HP, Dell) to ship their products
containing a Windows Vista installation that does NOT require any kind of product activation as
this might be considered an unnecessary inconvenience for the end-user.
Instead these so-called 'Royalty OEMs' are granted the right to embed certain license information
into their hardware products, which can be validated by Windows Vista to make obtaining further
activation information (online or by phone) obsolete.
This mechanism is commonly referred to as 'SLP 2.0' ('system-locked pre-installation 2.0') and
consists of the following three key elements:
1. The OEM's hardware-embedded BIOS ACPI_SLIC information signed by Microsoft.
2. A certificate issued by Microsoft that corresponds to the specific ACPI_SLIC information.
The certificate is an XML file found on the OEM's installation/recovery media,
ususally called something like 'oemname.xrm-ms'.
3. A special type of product key that corresponds to the installed edition of Windows Vista.
This key can usually be obtained from some installation script found on the OEM's
installation/recovery media or directly from a pre-installed OEM system.
If all three elements match Windows Vista's licensing mechansim considers the given
installation a valid system-locked pre-activated copy (that does not require any
additional product activation procedures).
So the basic concept of the tool at hand is to present any given BIOS ACPI_SLIC information to Windows
Vista's licensing mechanism by means of a device driver.
In combination with a matching product key and OEM certificate this allows for rendering any system
practically indistinguishable from a legit pre-activated system shipped by the respective OEM.
What are all those files for?
DIFXAPI.DLL - a runtime dll for Microsoft's DIFx API used by oemtool.exe
OEMTOOL.EXE - an application for installing/uninstalling the emulation driver
and dumping BIOS ACPI_SLIC information from any SLP 2.0-enabled
Windows Vista OEM system
PKEYS.TXT - contains a list of validated OEM product keys
README.TXT - this file
ROYAL.INF - driver .INF file, can be (ab)used to install the emulation driver
in case oemtool.exe fails to perform this task
ROYAL.SYS - the emulation device driver
CERTS\ACER.XRM-MS - the certificate that corresponds to the ACPI_SLIC information
emulated by the driver when 'Acer' has been selected during
driver installation
CERTS\ASUS.XRM-MS - the certificate that corresponds to the ACPI_SLIC information
emulated by the driver when 'ASUS' has been selected during
driver installation
CERTS\HEWLETT-PACKARD.XRM-MS - the certificate that corresponds to the ACPI_SLIC information
emulated by the driver when 'Hewlett-Packard' has been selected
during driver installation
CERTS\LENOVO.XRM-MS - the certificate that corresponds to the ACPI_SLIC information
emulated by the driver when 'Lenovo' has been selected during
driver installation
