This was some 7 years ago or so. Buying new Windows will cost me a kidney, and I'm not confident enough in my computer skills to live comfortably with a pirated OS.
pirated OSes are super friendly. in fact, they are more friendly than official releases, because pirate versions make sure to make a life for users more comfortable by offering to disable in one click unnecessary windows things. if needed can give instructions on how to get it.
