'''Windows Vista Eternity 2009''' is a bootleg [[:Category:Bootlegs based on Windows Vista|Windows Vista SP1]] edition, which was created by [[:Category:Bootlegs created by Benjamin|Benjamin Samson]]. It released on September 4, 2008, and was added to the archive on January 2, 2022. It is the sequel to [[Windows Vista Black Edition]].


It is the last bootleg to have the Black Edition Team branding. Afterwards on September 21, 2008, the team got rebranded to Rockers International Team, for technical reasons according to Benjamin. [[Windows Royal Business Edition 2009]] is the first bootleg to have the Rockers International Team branding, and [[Windows 7 Black Edition 2009 R1]] is the first bootleg in the collection to have the branding.
'''Windows Vista Eternity 2009''' is a Windows bootleg edition created by [[:Category:Bootlegs created by Benjamin|Benjamin Samson]] released in September 2008 and added to the archive on January 2022. This bootleg comes in 2 parts.

There is another (similarly titled) version of this bootleg, named [[Windows Vista Black Eternity 2009]],<ref name="black_eternity_origin">http://web.archive.org/web/20090412050402/http://www.rockersteam.com/releases.html</ref> which is also [[CrustyWindows:Lost bootlegs|lost]]. This also makes it especially difficult to find because there are two different bootlegs named both "Windows Vista Black Edition" and "Eternity" (it being this one) by the same person, making it hard to search. It had both 32-bit and 64-bit versions. Luckily, there is some evidence remaining on this bootleg, which would be located at {{link|url=https://cmao.ucoz.net/load/15-1-0-45|name=https://cmao.ucoz.net/load/15-1-0-45}}.

Windows Vista Eternity 2009 is a bootleg Windows Vista SP1 edition, which was created by Benjamin Samson. It released on September 4, 2008, and was added to the archive on January 2, 2022. It is the sequel to Windows Vista Black Edition.

It is the last bootleg to have the Black Edition Team branding. Afterwards on September 21, 2008, the team got rebranded to Rockers International Team, for technical reasons according to Benjamin. Windows Royal Business Edition 2009 is the first bootleg to have the Rockers International Team branding, and Windows 7 Black Edition 2009 R1 is the first bootleg in the collection to have the branding.

There is another (similarly titled) version of this bootleg, named Windows Vista Black Eternity 2009,[1] which is also lost. This also makes it especially difficult to find because there are two different bootlegs named both "Windows Vista Black Edition" and "Eternity" (it being this one) by the same person, making it hard to search. It had both 32-bit and 64-bit versions. Luckily, there is some evidence remaining on this bootleg, which would be located at https://cmao.ucoz.net/load/15-1-0-45.

This bootleg comes in 2 parts, like its sequel.

  • The tests were proven successful, but in order for the internet to properly work, the VLAN ID must be set to the correct value as the CollabNet infrastructure and the VMs hooked to it used to rely on VLANs during this time. VM 0b0t had its own special VLAN, with slightly more lenient internet restrictions. But as Windows Vista does not support VLAN IDs, a solution had to be found.
  • After a few minutes of brainstorming, a solution was found - you simply had to install Windows Server 2008 R1 drivers to make it work. Its server counterpart fully supported VLAN IDs. And as both of them used the same OS as a base, and because of that, the internet worked perfectly fine. There would eventually be a Vista-based VM 0b0t snapshot on the 21st revision. However, it didn't use this bootleg, instead it used Windows 2007.

Bootleg quirks

  • You can find 300 MB of ATI and NVIDIA nForce drivers on the desktop.
  • There are installer executables for Yahoo! Messenger for Vista Preview in the Programs folder.
  • You can't select the Upgrade path in the Setup.

CD contents and other info

  • When you open the autorun, a Flash video will play on startup. It is really loud. In the autorun, a Flash video of a loop of a waterfall plays inside a computer monitor.
