HA! You loser Jakkal666. If it was'nt for dopeman, this never would have even been possible you idiot. Very funny. Thanks again dopeman for an awesome rip.!

If thanks is given in this thread,,,It should most definatley be given to crejbi. I asked for someone else to answer the nag, crejbi stepped up quick. Thanks again crejbi,,,Very well done.

thank you crejbi for stepping up to the plate for dopeman. This xp activation is a huge step for mankind.

techmannie at 2007-07-01 00:00:00

Agreed. this is the nail in the coffin to microsofts non-xp compatibilit theory. Game plays great. Now if we can only get multiplay.

crebban at 2007-07-01 01:22:00

haha, np mates. but dopeman is the real hero for providing us with sucha kickass rip ///crejbi

Guys, just ignore the microsoft advocate that is continuing to post links to their website. It only puts all of you at risk if you click on it... cheers.

hey dopeman, great release and I really enjoyed not having to buy vista. I've played through most of the levels using the renaming work-around and found this fix and was very excited. However, when i replaced the mf.dll in the halo 2 folder and put the other one in the windows/system32 folder, nothing changed. I still get the "please activate your product to continue playing" message. Any wise words of advice or should I continue renaming? :D

420dopeman at 2007-07-01 02:10:00

I'd have to say yes, although the renamer patch is not the most friendly way to play, It will certainly give you the same results in the long run. I for one never had a nag, so it's very hard for me to troubleshoot. (this is actually why I asked for someone else to shoot the nag) thanks again crejbi,... Perhaps try some shooting of your own, if your able to come with why, it may help others also. greetz mate.

seanoxide3 at 2007-07-01 02:30:00

thanks for the rapid response, i understand that you can't really troubleshoot, having not created this fix, but thanks for clearing it up for me :D reading over your comment you make it sound like there's an actual patch that'll rename the maps, but apparently that isn't so (oh well, as it becomes difficult quickly to rename the maps and keep track which was originally which and what it should be) cheers, Ian

seanoxide3 at 2007-07-01 02:31:00

and now of course, I have to figure out why you didn't have the nag in the first place :)

420dopeman at 2007-07-01 02:35:00

oh there is a patch, its a series of .bat files that rename 3 maps at a time for you. Go to mininova and search this: Halo 2 Vista Single Player Patch I've used them on XP and they work great. Just download and follow the instructions. I cant provide a direct link because tpb wont allow it. cheers.

fjna at 2007-07-01 09:14:00

can i play on LAN with this fix? Regards

sadrax at 2007-07-01 20:10:00

AWSOME it works 98% 2 % are missing cause ive played it 6 hours and after it sayed please insert halo2 disc to continiue playing... dunno what it means but i bet that this has something to do wit the "PERMANENT ACTIVATION FIX" hope only that mr dopeman will get this permanent to long lasting :) PS dopeman have u any idea when you cuold upload game called "Hellgate London"? with regards

420dopeman at 2007-07-02 00:39:00

Yet another alternate way to play the maps: <a href="/redirect?http://thepiratebay.org/tor/3729916/">http://thepiratebay.org/tor/3729916/</a> yaaay...
