To open ISO download WinImage (it is shareware so look for it on Download.com and such) and open it... duh Replace the file and burn it back up. The only thing that might go wrong here is the CD u gonna make will not be bootable.

So winimage will open iso's as well as .bin? I will try that. Considering that I burned it to a cdrw, is it possible to just burn the single file to overwrite the older one? Thanks again

92% of the things we worry about don't happen - but the other 8% DO!

To make an NT CD bootable, use CDR-Win (shareware) and follow the FAQ at www.win2k.net

Nope - mswin2k.net is not reachable - the site must be down. Bummer.

I see chameleon didnt give me credit for the setup.hiv timebomb crack here. So i will post here so you can bow down before me

Someone in another thread pointed to a copy of the FAQ in the last few days - it's probably worth a look.
 
Drop me a line if you don't find it, and I'll put one together.
 
Oh, and the "setupreg.hiv time-bomb crack" didn't work, so excuse me if I don't bow...

why didnt it work? did you put the file in your /i386 folder overwriteing the older one then reinstall? did you have build 2195.1

Yuppie it does work, you just have to replace the on from the cd with the modifed one and then reinstall or do a fresh install.. best bootable cd site to go to is : http://www.angelfire.com/de2/w2kcd/ please get that right peeps!!!
also, rocko i did you credit, didnt you see it ? i said thank you Mr. Black.!
 
something which was brought to my attention is that if you all check the jpg i have on my news page as proof, and check the corner where the evaluation thing used to be you can see the top of the leter for the b the d and the one 1 from the stuff that regurlay goes there.. raising another issue, that the modified drivers push the evalutatoin thing down a bit, weird thing is that i skipped way past 120 days and nothing happened.
cant we all get away from all this deceipt!?
anyways.. i cant complain, i'll have 2195.3 gold soon, and finally no more bull****s!

I did replace the old SETUPREG.HIV with the new one, and the setup still tells me it's a 120-day eval copy - contrary to reports seen here and elsewhere. I'll try installing anyway, but given the current behaviour is not what I was led to expect . . .
 
Oh, and while we're talking credits, how about some props for spotting the eval notice?

Do not worry about Coreutil's ISO release, I've done two installs with this one: an upgrade from RC2 and a clean one on another machine.
There's no sign of any time limit, it even removed the one I had on the RC2.
After checking, the setupreg.hiv on the CD shows no sign of restriction.
One more thing, the dosnet.inf file on the CD shows this : DriverVer=12/07/1999,5.00.2195.1
 
So, there MAY be a time-bombed 2195.1 AND a non time-bombed one.

Well, I'm running at Dec 25, 2010 right now. No time bomb.. Unless Microsoft devised some very tricky time-bomb, I think it's a load of bull****.
 
MS will make so much cash off this OS they probably don't give a damn about people copying it and getting pre-releases. If anything, it'll help increase the product support having people running around hacking drivers to work for games and making an impact on other companies to hurry win2k support.
