How is it March already, Tuesday!
 

Where did January and February go?

morning, today is a year since i switched to subaru/mazda parts. where does the time go?

Was on chat support with MS for almost 30 mins...

I have a Win 7 Home Premium laptop (this is personal use, not work).
I want to format the HDD and reinstall the same version of Windows.

I go to MS site to download the ISO. I enter my product key, it throws an error. I talk to MS chat support and they tell me I need to talk to Dell to activate the reformatted OS.

I have to call Dell, since the laptop is so old they wont let me chat. I tell him I bought it from Best Buy like 6 years ago and im the only one whos owned it. He transfers ownership from BB to me. Then tells me the warranty is up, yea no ****.

Tells me that I need a warranty to have them reactivate it. Its $200 for "unlimited i ****ed up everything support", no. Its $120 for one time use. NO. I can buy a Win 7 product key for ~$80.

So stupid. Glad I havnt actually formatted my hard drive yet :lol::lol:

The reason you are getting that error is because that key is assigned to a Dell OEM disk.

So... do you want to just upgrade it to Win 7 Pro? I have a Dell Win7 Pro OEM disk we could use and I know you have keys :eyebrows:

Tired :yawn:

Yea that could work haha

After 4 years with no car radio I finally picked one up. I didn't want anything fancy just something that looked semi OEM.

I don't have cell phone. So i don't need 90% of the features radios have now days. I just want to play a couple burned CD-Rs and to change the display color to match my dash colors.

Good afternoon...
