AHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!

F*CKING GIGABYTE!!

That EEPROM update screwed up Vista!, i had to activate my OS over the phone!, what the hell?

Obviously this update DID change something significant, if i needed to activate by phone. Online activation failed and i had to call MS, so i guess the MAC address did change and Vista flagged it and thought it was a pirated copy

Damn you GB, while don't you warn folks?
