WOW SOMEBODY IS PARANOID JUST A LITTLE BIT!

Sorry but i have reinstalled many OS's on many different machines and never had an issue.[/QUOTE]


well Bud me too!. I like you, build my own

I do not have no problems at all with the machines i build. nor do i with DEll machines the original gateways before hp took over and compacts did come with Oem os disks so yea was not a Problem till i puchased this hp. Which i have stayed away from since the 90's. But the laptop deal was to good to pass due to the hardware spec's of the laptop!. Actually the plan was to remove all the junk and use a generic operating system. but to my surprise the Bios was not a true bio's it had been locked to HP software and trialware and surpisingly the bio's communicates to hp through the software from the restore partition, this in of it's self should set of alarms who owns the hardware?. Do I or HP?.
Now we know you cannot buy software it is leased. this is where you really have to think buy law you cannot steal what you cannot buy!. Thus came DRM laws.this is why folks are being sued under copyright laws!. And not by criminal statues. This being said makes it too expensive to sue everyone or those that download. So comes palidan the hardware And software protection Initiative.

And again it does give you some since of protection. It does stop the script kiddies where most of the nasty's are comming from but will not stop Professional adware, spammers and the like from doing what they want!. A true hacker will in fact get in and do their damage!,As long as you are connected to the Public internet. Redmond & the Government can't stop it why do you think you can?.

But for some reason you and the others can not grasp this because it does not affect you today! Remember i am talking hardware and HP is a trend setter.

Well i am talking about a top of the line 2009 computer less than 30 days old and some how you have the o/s disk and not the system restore images ! so we are not on the same page here and i don't know when they started the no o/s disk policy. but you either got a old disk or you have downloaded a hacked version. I know for a fact they will not give me a o/s disk from HP restore disks only!. wich means a mirror image of the factory hard drive with all he other junk.

I gave up reading that lot after the first couple of lines, perhaps if you had written it in a readable way with correct sentences that start with a capital letter and end with a full stop and the correct spelling I might have been able to finish it.

your right i was upreal late when i wore this !. Then again this is a fourm not a english class. you are all guilty of my grammar and spelling fupaws on this forum go back through the threads !. Never in my posts did I say you do not have a right to disagree. but then again i did not flame anyone either. but then tried to point out a industry trend not just the software but the hardware as well. when you tweak anything on the computers you and then sharing your info you inadvertently screw with the money as i said in the post you folks refused to read dur to grammar and spelling. thus why buy a 3giga hertz intel when you can buy a 2.8 intel for between 50 and 100 dollars less. see in the past the industry did stop all tweaking via the Bios but there was such a backlash they reversed their decision but stil remain opposed to this untill they find a way to enforce it. well folks they have a way today, at least part way.

I agree this is not an English class but most people come here for help and to able to offer that help we must be able to read and understand what they are saying so it makes sense to try and make your post as clear as possible, and most systems have some kind of spell checker on them these days.

You wanted to discuss and rant about a particular thing but if no one can understand what you are saying they are not going to bother either agreeing or disagreeing with you, in fact they probably wont even bother reading your post.

If English is not your first language then first try and find a forum in your own language to ask for help or to discuss your issues and if you can't try to make your post as clear and understandable as you can.
That way you have more chance of people joining in with you. I'm not trying to be rude here but just trying to point out a few things to help you.
