I hate to post "Me Too!" posts, but I am having the same problem with my paid version too. I keep hitting "skip" and it seems to be working so far, but. . . . I paid good money for a registered version and I'd really like to be able to register the blinkin' thing! Thanks!

Hey! It's a dirty, rotten job, but SOMEONE has to be first. . . . (I've tried starting something as the second or third, but it usually never works out that way :wtf: ) I'm the ONLY one who wants this? Seriously, I'm surprised. EasyBCD makes it so easy to set up multi-boot configurations...

Hopefully I have put this in the "write" place! :lol: Enhancement Request: When adding a 'nix entry to the BCD store, EasyBCD provides it's own psudo-loader. And, it is possible that this solution may work for a number of people out-of-box. In my own case, I prefer to use the OS supplied...

Mahamoud, Here's a thought: You could implement it as one of the "push button" extras that is on the last tab of your product. In essence it would become a totally separate app that provides just the "editor" function for the BCD store. This way you can have your cake and eat it too - ZERO...

Terry, That's almost true. However - my being contrary - I do things a little differently. . . . My usual boot setup goes like this: BCD (Windows) boot: 1. Boot Windows (7, etc.) 2. Boot Linux (Ubuntu, grub2, the whole nine yards.) Grub2 (Ubuntu/Linux) boot: 1. Boot Ubuntu or whatever...

Here's a real head-scratcher for you. Though it's not something that you would want to use every day, there are occasionally times when it would be PRETTY DARN CONVENIENT to be able to edit the listing you see in the "view" window. In my case, I very frequently install dual-boot configurations...

Mahmoud, I don't know if you remember me - from a while back! - (I was the guy who asked if you took PayPal to contribute!) EasyBCD is, and has been, one of those "And why didn't Microsoft think of this?" kind of things. Seriously, I'd love to see a distribution arrangement between you and M$...

Welcome in! You don't call the doctor for no good reason, do you. . . . 'Ole Doc Harris' prescription for dead Dell computers is often a double-barrel 12-gague shotgun at 30 paces. . . . ( :grin!: ) One thing you can do right away is open the thing and look at the motherboard - look at the...

Hey! It's like a bad nickel - I always keep turning up at the darndest times. . . .! Actually, I've been busy as (----). And now that I have your un-divided attention (laughing!) why not pop over to my TechTips blog and take a gander at my latest posting The Cost of Complacency I'm sure you...

qiplayer, Don't feel so bad about learning "the hard way" In many ways that's the only way to really stay abrest of the latest-and-greatest stuff. Even Einstein (I think?) said "I've learned more from my mistakes than I ever did from my successes." If mistakes are good enough for Einstein...

OK, Guru - put your loader where your mouth is! :p I've heard you say this numerous times but I'll be damned if I can find it, or how to do it, or whatever. . . . Documentation on how to accomplish this feat of magic seems to be woefully lacking. And here I am in front of my computer, with a...

@Terry60, If you're sixty (Terry60), then *I* must be ancient! (jharris1993) :booyah: @James, Let me amplify hat Terry said a little bit: An "ISO" (. . . .-dot-iso) is an *image* of a CD or DVD, where every single sector is read, starting at sector 1, going all the way to the last sector of...

@Guru: That's the whole idea. Seriously now, If I can't make at least ONE person crack a smile, or laugh, in the course of the day, I feel like I shoulda' never got outta' bed. Life is much too serious, what with all the Horse Hooey going on in Washington, the Middle East, India, Pakistan...

Ref: Blog entries at http://neosmart.net/forums/showthread.php?t=6389 I am going to propose some changes in the 2.0.2 EasyBCD. BUG: When you select BCD Backup/Repair --> Change Boot Drive, the drive shown is always the "C:" drive even if that is not the current location for the system store...

You'd be amazed at the number of people who have not migrated to Vista/7 yet. And for good reason - if they don't have a 16 core i300 or the latest AMD "HolyS**T!-987654" processor, performance is kind-a REALLY lame. IMOHO - I personally think Vista harfs donkey-doo. 7, by comparison is...

I've run into the same problem and I usually fix it by using "dd" to make a copy of the MBR before the update happens, and then use "dd" again to replace it after the updates are done, but before I reboot the box. I'm tempted to describe how to do it, but dd is one of those "44-Magnum" commands...

@Guru Who do I strangle about the way the "download" page is laid-out? It's not just you - it is most every download page out there. You go to the download page to download something clever like EasyBCD, you notice the BIG GREEN BUTTON that says "Download Now!" and you hit it. You then...

Wow! For that kind of money, you should have your own dedicated satellite! @ Terry60. Fuzz Korea! @Guru. If you're going to go all the way hell-and-gone to the Pacific Rim, go to Singapore. In Singapore, even the soda machines have high-speed broadband! Plus they speak English - after a...

I have started this thread to give people a forum to describe the feature, use, whatever that convinces you that EasyBCD is a "Hot Smokin' Weapon!" Ref: My posting - http://neosmart.net/forums/showthread.php?t=8315 Another reason it's a Hot Smokin' Weapon: Virtual Machines. EasyBCD installs...

@Ex_Brit. We can fix the problem with "the other place" charging. . . . All we have to do is take away their credit cards!! @Guru. Sorry about that - however if I bring my forceps and a strong light, and Ex_Brit brings a long set of tweezers, we can probably get that tongue of yours untied...
