You cannot help, so you resort to mocking? What has happened to W7 forum?

 

[mohavepc]

your not running genuine software, or you would post the files requested. THAT is what has happened to 7 forums. We are over run with people using counterfeit software and want us to fix the issue. Unfortunately the only true fix is to install genuine software. Whining that no one wants to help you only gets you noticed by the mods. good luck.

Nothing has happened.
We simply do not tolerate using illegal software and then complain when it does not work correctly. I see in past threads this pc was bought from ebay. I also see you were asked several times before to do a clean install and use your product key. You did not do it. Since you ask for help and do not do what is asked of you, I fail to see your argument.

This is a red flag right there in itself.

Having a genuine windows is not just to make microsoft money. Illegal versions attract more malware, are more prone to crashes and errors, and cause unexpected problems.

I have posted what Greg asked and he did not comment on the whether or not my OS is legal. So, I deleted the post .

Just do this bro:
1. clean the hard drive. It is not difficult.
2. Install genuine OS
3. Sit back and enjoy a drink while installing. You won't have to worry unless you are doing something illegal.

Frankly Andrew I stated that quiet a posts ago and I ma frankly quite peed off with the response, should have saved my time for what it is worth looking at other stuff.

I don't know what individuals think they are gaining by mucking around with media that is obviously sloppy or illegal when as I said much earlier for the cost of a new OEM it just isn't worth it and smacks of a niggardly approach to life in general. It is a bit like free security software really my Kasperksy cost me about $0.11 a day and usually those who do not want to pay such small amounts think nothing of spending $5-6 on a cup of coffee

I have posted results of MGADiag Tool several hours ago and nobody made any comment. So I deleted as I am not comfortable leaving them posted for too long.

In that case, Private message them to noel and he will look at it. This way no one else can see it.
You can upload it to a free website like dropbox or onedrive which can upload the file, and have a link that only the person with the link can view the file. Once he receives it you can delete it.

FYI, I have resolved SR issues like I have done so before, twice with my Vista HP(absolutely legal OS) and once with this current W7 HP (of questionable OS legality)..by doing step by step instructions from one blogger..

From internet blogs, I gather that SR issues are prevalent. I cannot imagine all those involved with SR issues are illegal.

You guys just presumed my SR issues were consequent to the possibility that my OS is illegal. Wrong! Wrong on both counts. I contacted the ebay seller and he assured me that my OS was installed and activated legally.

   Note

Let's keep this friendly shall we.

Let's determine the genuine status of the installation first, and go from there.

Hi Brink...when I bought this used unit 8 months ago , it never dawned on me that seller might install OS illegally(This was the first time I ever bought anything used).

Despite seller's assurance now that it's installation and activation are legal, I am not really interested to find out for sure as I have no intention to spend more than $100.00 for a retail W7 to install on an old unit whose life expectancy is undetermined. One responder claims it is at least 6 yrs. old.

I presented a simple problem and responders turned it into a cyber lynching frenzy. Genuine or not, I will never again allow myself to be subjected to such attack. If you think I should be kicked out of W7, feel free to do so.


This is my last post on this OS status matter.

In case this is my last visit to W7 forum, let me remind everybody that my 7 yr. old HP (bought new with OEM Vista) had identical SR problems at least twice, had BSOD's and crushings and start failures several times(all due to Trojans). Just to iterate these things happen to any PC, legal or not.

The installation is counterfeit - enabled by a hacker's Activation Exploit - the Key is for an Acer computer, not an HP.

You need to reformat and reinstall using genuine media and Key.

"You need to reformat and reinstall using genuine media and Key."

Not on this possibly 6 yr. old used unit which at the moment is functioning very well. I'll wait for its demise and just buy a brand new unit.

 

[Brink]

Then we are unable to further help you with this PC.

This is why we wanted to check to see if it's genuine or not because that is often the cause of many issues, and that we cannot help with illegally activated Windows.

If you would like further help, then you would need to become legal first.

 

[pappi]

So how do I get out of W7 forum ? If possible, please just kick me out.

 

[Brink]

Not a problem.
