Windows 7 (SeVeN) is probably going to continue the trial software trend that starts with Windows Vista’s rearm, that user can install Windows 7 without any product key for free usage of 30 days as evaluation period.
During the 30-day activation free grace period, user does not need to activate Windows 7, and can use Windows 7 of any edition in full functionality.
Although Windows 7 product activation function will keep reminding user how many days left to input a product key and activate the system in order to continue using the operating system beyond 30 days. In reality, Windows 7 also equip with a secret ‘rearm’ key in order to reset the free 30-day evaluation period limitation, which allows user to extend the activation-free usage or evaluation expiry date of Windows 7 for another 30 days legally.
Best of all, Microsoft provides 3 times of available ‘rearm’ count, as part of tool for system administrator to reset and restore activation state of Windows 7 to factory state during initial OOB (out of box) grace period. So, by using the ‘rearm’ hack, user can reset and extend the activation grace period (aka evaluation trial period) for up to 3 times, effectively running Windows 7 without product key without activation for up to 120 days, or 4 months. The trick is, the rearm hack must be done only when the 30 days trial period or activation grace period is about to expire.
‘Rearm’ trick on Windows 7 is done using the similar commands and steps with Windows Vista. Follow these steps to reset and extend activation grace period from 30 days to 120 days in Windows 7:
1. Install Windows 7 without any product activation key.
2. After installation is completed, use the Windows 7 for 30 days and wait for the remaining days left to activate Windows counting down to 0, or almost zero.
3. When the activation grace period (or evaluation trial period) is almost expired or ended, log on to Windows 7 desktop, and open a Command Prompt window (i.e. type Cmd in Start Search and hit Enter).
4. Type any of the following commands into the command prompt, and then hit Enter:
sysprep /generalize
slmgr.vbs –rearm
rundll32 slc.dll,SLReArmWindows
slmgr /rearm
5. Reboot Windows 7 to enjoy another 30 days of free usage without worrying about activation nor even need to crack Windows 7.
6. When the activation grace period countdown timer almost running down to 0 again, repeat the ‘rearm’ trick to enjoy another 30 days of Windows 7 for free. User can run the rearm command for maximum of 3 times.
As rearm only works for 3 times, make sure the command is only been run when the 30 days countdown of evaluation period is almost expired.

i take it everyone with the view "vista=me 7=xp" wearn't actually using pc's that
much back then! when xp came out everyone was saying "stick with 2000 or 98" because xp
was for from being stable, and didn't get 100% stable until the release of sp2. i have
been running vista since early pre beta builds and although it was slow in the early
stages (which is expected from early builds) i now find it a hell of alot quicker than xp.
also vista x64 is mainstream and there are hardly any pieces of hardware that won't work
flawlessly in x64. xp is fine if you don't want to use the new cpu's and ram to their
full potential. windows 7 probably be quicker than vista and this is to be expected from a
new os (just like vista being faster than xp) but as far as i'm concerned vista deserves
little to no bashing because it can hold it’s own against any m$ release to date.
also the reason that most people don’t like vista is because they expect it to run on
hardware that was released around the same time as xp. well idiots i’m sure you can
understand the error in your judgment there!! and if not then you shouldn’t even be on
sites that discuss technical pc topics as you clearly don’t have the brain power to
understand the fundamentals…
thanks for the activation key xsav.nl, it still seems to work, i don't think its been
blacklisted
