Hows is it possible that this release is 4.43gb and this one http://piratebayproxy.live/tor/4029634/Microsoft.Windows.Vista.x64.SP1.OEM.DVD-BIE is smaller in sze although it has SP1?

sp1976: The short answer is: I don't know!
One answer can be that it is an OEM with extras.
After reading the comments at that site it seems to me that is a cracked version which is detected by M$ and expires.
I found that this one is not cracked but OEM, ddoes not expire, and as such it is not detected by M$ so far...

I think this version is safer to install, i hope you seed for a while!

lkadar, hello, can you tell me if there are instructions on how to install this properly without errors, im nearly finished downloading, and do i need to extract EACH archive to a seperate folder and burn to a DVD? and is a DVD RW ok to use? by the way i'll seed at full speed for a while afterwards as i have v.fast net connection! thanks in advance.

I've used an earlier version of this integrated pack and it is awesome indeed AND it works with Vista SP1 without needing any crack to re-activate windows.

I'm going to hold off on downloading this. I'm certain the next release of this series will have SP1 pre-integrated and that's what I'm looking forward to.

hey a quick explanation would be nice....? and im currently downloading at a pethetic 5 KB/s and seeding at 37 KB/s. stuck at 71%! PLLLEEEAAASSSEEE SEED!!

WizDWiz: There are no special instructions as to how to install.
1. Unrar the files into any folder.
2. Burn the image to a DVD9 (double Layer) disk.
3. Put the disk into the drive and the rest is automatic.
Good luck!

sorry to carry on nagging, can i use power iso or nero? dual layer dvds im not sure about about as i have stack of decent DVD RW's and a couple of DVD R's

WizDWiz: No problem.
Those that U R mmentioning are DVD5 (single layer) disks. Their capacity is 4.4GB and as such they are just not larrge enough. This is why U need a double layer disk which has a capacity of 2x4.4GB. They cost about $2 each.
As for the programs I am not sure about Power ISO but Nero can burn DL. The question is whether your burner can handle it?

i just finished downloading this and i have no idea what all these .RAR files are, aswell as the rest, they are ALL identical in file name, someone please let me know to work this. thanks in advance!

ok doesnt matter now i figured it all out, burns and installs PERFECTLY with no issues or bumps at all! one thing though, it wont install windows aero or ANY of the high-end features windows vista ultimate should have. tell me if im doing something wrong since i only extracted the rar files .ISO file and burned that since that seemed all that i needed, everything else seemed pointless to be there....any suggestions? oh and i used a DVD-RW disk....not a DL. Thanks

WizDWiz: You did well. All those rar files contain one iso file only.
I cannot understand how were U able to burn it to a DVD5 disk? It should have tell U that it doesn't have enough capacity!
May be your problem is that some parts of the image were not burned to the disk. Perhaps U can correct it by mounting the complete image, as unrared from those files, in Power ISO and try to correct your installation from theere.

Single- and Dual-layer DVDs have capacities of 4.7 GB and 8.5 GB, respectively.

And whether it works on a single layer DVD or not, thanks to lkadar for the upload.
