Dear all

i have Vista home basic installed on my MBP boot camp partition, everything was working fine until i installed the Service pack 1 for vista, still works fine -actually alot better except now my activation key doesnt work and i have only 15 days left!

so i had t search for a crack for my copy of windows, installed it then rebooted and that's when my problem started

i get a black screen with a cursor for about 2 minute before the vista bar starts to load, but then i enter windows and its activated and working just fine. also when hibernating....i alsot get this screen for quite some time before vista proceeds to un-hibernate!

now i need to understand why does it take so much time with this black screen to start loading windows?

i guess its something delaying the boot command...

should the new bootcamp 2.1 update for vista fix the problem? am just worried this might end up with reinstalling windows :(



any time would seriously help...thank you all

This is really not the best place to ask for help regarding pirated software?
