As entertaining this all is, as a proposal, I think we can now stop being right and go back to normal. Nothing more to see here, please move on <wave> ;)

Best regards,

So, you're saying Windows is a bad joke?

Help.

I downloaded and installed the beta 1.3 update for my n900.

How do I remove the update?

Everytime I switch it on it does this:

Me too.


When I tried to go back to Win 7, my internet wasn't working.

Anybody know how to fix this?

Parody 2010-05-03 14:07

Re: HELP! I installed windows 8 from internets
 
Guys, I installed this too because I was dissapointed with a few things, but the readme says that Win8 is only available when my monitor is turned off! I bought a second one and turned that one off instead but it still shows Win7, so tomorrow I'm going to buy a third one, I'll post back later and tell you if it works or not.


DON'T MOCK THE BOLD AND DARING

Re: HELP! I installed windows 8 from internets
 
I'm confused. I installed Windows 8 on my N900 and it now refuses to boot. So do I blame Nokia or Microsoft?

Please help ASAP; my lawyer charges by the hour.

Wait windows 8 will run on N900 why do we want Meego then?

Both.

Nokia is sooo disrespectful. Why did they let that happen?

Please do not make fun of my serious request. If you read you will see it doesn't run.

You are directly increasing my lawyer's fees so I ask that you pay your share if you are going to mock.

Re: HELP! I installed windows 8 from internets
 
to get windows 8 to boot right you have to load Android 2.1 first then use the bootloader from Webos and everything will work just right.

Thanks I tried that and now I can at least boot up. But the bootscreen now has a message asking me to put money into an escrow account so I can get an inheritance from a dead uncle in Nigeria. Problem is it only lists Paypal and I don't have that!!! Please tell me how I can send funds directly to a bank account, thanks.

Thanks I will get the 12,500 USD out in cash now. Please can you now tell me how long it will take for my 43,000,000 USD inheritance to get here? The message did not say, and my lawyer is getting impatient. I still intend to sue Microsoft for making such a bad phone.

this thread is funny. dont forget some people flashed like i did and i fully knew the risks. but i agree some people should not even own a n900 and just stick with a iphone
