<0> or, here... http://www.newegg.com/Product/ProductList.asp?N=2010010353&Submit=ENE&Subcategory=353&Description=usb+rs232&Ntk=all
<1> i dont have
<2> i think the driver for the usb adapter takes care of everything as far as interfaces are concerned, you don't need to worry about if the software supports it... just point the software at the COM port
<0> Kalin35; you did NOT buy a parallel to serial adapter. you bought a DB25 serial to DB9 serial adapter.
<3> Kalin35: just get the friggin usb serial cable and don't turn it into a major project
<3> I bought one for just that reason. rarely use it but on occasion need it
<2> good call peerce
<3> came with the stupid db25 adapter too. never will use that
<4> why doesn't my "windows defender" want to update
<4> tells me, no such interface
<2> you have a pirated copy of xp? heh
<4> heh indeed
<4> :S
<4> shisa, that's the reason eh?
<2> i've been having a bitch of a time trying to byp*** windows validation
<4> yeah
<3> reyeZo, you ignorant slut.
<4> is there a
<2> haven't been able to get it going
<3> WTF
<5> Campee: Awesome.
<4> campee, let me know when ya figure something good out :P
<2> you work for MS?
<3> Campee; you must be a moron. not that I need or use one, I see tons of that **** in torrents
<3> :)
<1> barsky, but if the software only looks for a com port, will it see the device with that serial to usb converter
<3> yes. it gets a com port
<5> Why is where anyone works any of your business?
<2> Barsky: wow, you're a genius. why didn't i think of that?!
<3> then I use hyperterminal or secrecrt or whatever I normally would use
<2> Barsky: you don't know what you're talking about, so I'll clue you in. MS changes the WGA drivers on a near-daily basis to defeat the "Cracks" that people have made that show up in your precious torrents
<4> Barsky suffers from a false sense of superiority and confuses his pittful work here on irc as a tard op, for something he attains to greatness with :S
<4> oh, shut down
<4> sit down bud
<4> SIT
<4> :)
<4> haha
<3> I see. well, that's an ignorance I'm glad to have.
<3> "work here on irc" bahahaha
<4> :+)
<6> Notice to new patrons: This is not a forum for talking about cracking program or os, and it will not be tolerated.
<3> you know, if you want to steal your os, go for it. I could care less. but you idiots ought to learn how to deal with what comes along with that
<4> anyway, barsky, i'm happy to see you actually took that with some cl***, you know it was just a joke.. i won't be suprised if you ban me tho :(
<4> barsky, fair enough
<2> ok, let's talk about how silly the new WGA system is and how it is preventing me from fully utilizing a copy of Windows XP that I have purchased when it came bundled with the system that I am trying to reinstall Windows XP
<4> campee, now that's sad :(
<3> two words: runon sentence
<7> Campee: I doubt that very much
<6> Campee: You didn't purchase a copy of Windows -- you purchased a license to use the accompanying software. Big difference.
<7> if you system restore the OEM XP that came with your systme, I'm sure it would work fine
<2> I really don't want to have to call MS and explain that I installed Linux on my machine, wiped it, and have since lost my eMachines restore CD and I really don't feel like paying them $20 for a replacement
<4> hah i like the name on that bot, @sshole
<4> cleverrrr
<7> Campee: so who's fault is that?
<2> It was a random leftover machine at my job and I want to put XP on it and give it to some poor intern to use
<0> Campee; wait. you're complaining that because you lost your software, you can't steal a new copy to replace it?
<0> mUAHAHAHAAHAH, idiot.
<6> That's no bot. That's a love machine.
<4> why can't we all just get along :/
<2> I'm not trying to steal anything
<0> your work buys emachines? omg.
<3> well, just as long as you don't take responsibility for your own actions and blame MS for your self-created problems
<2> Someone bought one before I got here, heh
<7> Campee: so pay $20 to get a replacement restore CD
<2> I had a similar reaction
<7> or, in the future, don't lose valuable media
<2> emachines? :(
<2> maybe I'll just install Win2K on it
<6> OH. So you not only want to use the software illegally, you want to DISTRIBUTE said software as well. Snifty.
<2> distribute?
<3> yeah, distribute?
<3> reading back
<6> <2> It was a random leftover machine at my job and I want to put XP on it and give it to some poor intern to use
<2> Yeah, you're not stretching it with that one
<2> Not at all
<3> wait. this is for work?
<6> I'm not. But thank you for your opinion.
<3> spend the ****ing $20, twat
<2> No way, **** eMachines
<3> fine.
<3> good luck with your problems
<3> pretty dumb company wasting your time with all this bull**** over $20
<2> you too
<2> my company isn't making me do any of this
<6> That's the only bright light I see.
<2> it's just something i am messing around with, mostly out of curiousity.. i was curious how the whole WGA system works
<6> Good for them.
<2> i think it's kind of silly of MS to be doing
<2> i guess this isn't a channel for discussion, it's just a bunch of critical, bitter people jumping at a chance to call someone stupid
<7> protecting their intellectual property is silly
<2> my mistake
<7> okay
<3> trying to stop people from not paying them for their product?
<6> You mean you think it's silly of them trying to protect their intellectual property?
<2> lol, are you guys all the same person?
<2> talking through bots again? :/
<7> When I had a commodore 64, I needed a dongle to use Paperclip 64
<6> You, sir, are completely lost.
<7> that was more than 15 years ago
<7> the people that made Paperclip 64 were so SILLY
<3> now your dongle is old and unused :(
<3> sun showers rocks
<3> -s
<2> obviously it is not silly to protect your intellectual property, i think that the WGA system is a poor way of doing it
<6> Mmmm..... golden showers
<2> guess that guy gave up on his calc
<2> what does it accomplish? people with pirated copies of Windows XP can't install patches for vulnerabilities, something that the average home user doesn't care about that much already..
<4> well they can acutlaly
<4> just don't go through the site to do it
<4> windows is still fairly kind in that aspect of things
<2> it also makes it very difficult for businesses that purchase corporate copies of Windows XP to update their system after re-installing XP because it sees their copies as being illegitimate
<5> Silly. But it works.
<4> they shouldn't let any pirated windows download updates
<4> but, it's still to their benefit
<4> they know that
<2> it's more of a headache to businesses, really
<6> I'm actually impressed with WPA and less impressed with WGA. It's a substantial improvement in effectiveness and transparency of copy protection schemes. The others simply do not work.
<5> Campee: You don't have a damn clue, do you?
<4> otherwise the world would be infested with choppy copies of windows which are easy to hack
<2> SD70MAC: why don't you state what your issue is instead of making inane comments? you know, like an intelligent person would
<4> rebooooot
<6> Campee: M That's rather rude.
<5> Campee: I didn't think so.
<2> SD70MAC: Good point, I see you put a lot of that into that
<2> thought*
<5> Didn't need to. You're clueless.
<2> SD70MAC: what's next? feet-stamping? putting your fingers in your ears?
<5> Nope. Just some laughing.
<3> Campee is seeming more and more an unneeded channel troll
<6> Now you're simply trying to wound.
<5> But he's so easy!
<6> Yeah. You too, SD70MAC.
<5> Er. Huh?
<2> SD70MAC is an idiot, heh
<6> CAN YOU FEEL THE LOVE TONIGHT
<2> Jumps down someone's throat just for talking about a new feature of Windows
<2> You must be a bitter, unhappy person
<5> Feature?
<5> The hell you talking about?
<6> Campee: Who is?
<2> SD70MAC
<5> Dude. You're so clueless.
<2> SD70MAC: Got any new material?
<2> Any original thoughts in your head?
<5> You're so damn random.
<2> Hm, a bit disappointing
<2> Too bad
<5> Yeah, you are.
<8> grr
<8> any takers: what does EMC actually stand for :)
<6> YOU MAY SEE THEM DROWNING AS YOU WALK ON THE BEACH BUT DON'T ROLL OUT THE LIFE-LINE 'TILL THEY'RE CLEAR OUT OF REACH
