MS has decided that I've used my software too much. Can someone provide
me a link to a working crack so I don't have to play these stupid
mother-may-i games any more?
tnx.

I guess you've already tried to activate by phone Gene?
I've gone through this about ten times now in the past 4 or 5 years. I just
keep lying to the stupid computer generated voice and say "one" to the the
how many computers is this software installed on question. Works for me
every time.
After all, is a computer generated robot going to call you a liar?

My sentiments too Gene,
But I've heard of some Windows key gen and crack code that really screw
your computer.
I know it's annoying, but it only takes ten minutes.
Just click activate by phone, call the number, tell them the key numbers,
then when it asks how many computers say "one."
Then type in the numbers they tell you, click activate, and you're done.
Theoretically, you *can* install it as many times as you please this way.

Oh yea,
Once you go through that, you won't have to do it again for another three or
four installs. At least I haven't. I have one version of Vista on four
computers at the house, three hooked up to signs, and two in the shop, not
to mention the half dozen or more computers that I don't have anymore.
Guess I better pull the shades.

Gene,
What version are you using? XP, Vista or 7?
I got a guy on the line here with a solution for you I think.

I'm using Windows 7. The issue isn't OS dependant, it's their lame-ass,
"all our customers are criminals" activation scheme.

The whole activation thing is a 100% huge waste of time, effort, and (for businesses, and MS) money. I remember back when XP was going to be the first Windows version with the limited activation thing that phoned home to MS. Everyone was up in arms..."What if I replace my motherboard? What if my hard drive dies? What if I do an entire rebuild? What if Windows simply hoses itself and must be reinstalled, as it is so wont to do from time to time?" Apparently MS saw the ultimate impracticality of such draconian measures, because it is possible to active XP literally as many times as you want. Even if you get elevated to a "live" tech, they always ask the same question: how many computers has it been installed on? "One." Activation granted!
And so, all the worries from the pre-XP days were (mostly) unwarranted (not counting the crass and blatant privacy issue). Of course, that also means that the entire activation scheme was a complete and utter waste of time too. The only time I've seen XP keys not activate is when one gets "blacklisted" by MS, probably either because it has been determined to be a pirated key (so sorry for the person who actually DID buy that key, have fun shelling out for a new license, buddy), or because it was never a valid key in the first place but satisfied XP's mathematic algorithm for activation keys, if that's even possible. This happens so rarely that it is barely even worth mentioning.
I expect FSX's scheme works in a similarly retarded fashion. As soon as I heard FSX was going to go the Windows'esque activation route, I knew I would never buy another copy of MSFS again.

It's not an issue of having a valid key - they're trying to track/prevent
too many installs by one key. I figure as long as it's mine, it's none of
their damn business. As long as I don't infringe on their copyright, they
can go pound sand.

Because us troll types like our caves. Besides, the high-framerates and
absurdly huge polygon counts annoy me. I wish NVidia would get off the
dime... :)

Series-3 Spider........

That was taken back before it stopped working! The tranny went out about two years ago, I FINALLY managed to get it out this summer and have just finished the rebuild. Sliding it onto the engine is proving extremely difficult, but I shall prevail!
I used to be into Datsun Z cars (as can be seen in the background), but quite frankly, the little Alfa stole my heart...no more Zs now!

Yep, I bought the Alfa in Tucson Arizona (no rust!!!) but moved to Oklahoma City a couple years ago. The Duettos are nice, I can certainly see the attraction there. I prefer the longer, squared-off Kamm tail of the series 2 and 3 Spiders myself.
I've been interested in the GTV6 ever since I saw a race build at my Alfa guy's shop in Tucson. The engines are actually very high performance in those from what I understand. But if I do buy another Alfa any time, it will probably be a 164S (fast sedan)....or another Spider .:)

the 164 is so boring...
especially compared to the GTV
do some reading on the Calloway ones... (now try to find one)
and it is a rear wheel drive with the de-dion axle, so many race wins.
