Found something in Vista

[TheGreatSatan]

Go to:

c: Windows -----> System32 ------>oobe -----> msoobe

Double click.

It brings up the very first screen Vista screen after a fresh install. I don't want to do it, but can you wipe the system from here?

I don't know. But it is "out of box experience"....

Isnt that just the welcome thing that comes up after a new install? Create a new user account and log in the first time, you might get the same thing. :)

sounds like it's time to play with virtual machines...

no it wont wipe your machine, it checks your systems validation status.
