It released inon September 4, 2008, and was added to the archive on January 2, 2022. It is the sequel to [[Windows Vista Black Edition]]. 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 [[CrustyWin Wiki: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" by the same person, making it hard to search. The bootleg comes in 2 parts. 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. [[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 also have the branding. 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 [[CrustyWin Wiki: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. This bootleg comes in 2 parts, like its sequel. == Description == == Changes from Windows Vista SP1 == === Changes in pre-desktop procedures === * New setup background * New startup video logo * New login background === Look and feel === * New default theme, and wallpaper * 25 new themes included (2 stock themes) == Notes == === Remarks === <!-- '''Fun fact:''' Did you know that this OS was one of the first candidates chosen for a potential new VM 0b0t snapshot based on Windows Vista, back in February 2023? 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 used to rely on VLANs during this time, and VM 0b0t had its own VLAN. But as Windows Vista does not support VLAN IDs by default, a solution had to be devised. After a few minutes of brainstorming, a solution was found - you simply had to install Windows Server 2008 R1 drivers to make it work. There would eventually be a Vista-based VM 0b0t snapshot on the 21st revision. -->▼ * There ''is'' info on this bootleg's sequel, in fact here's a link to it: [https://cmao.ucoz.net/load/15-1-0-45 Windows Vista Black Eternity 64-bit (Genuine Version) By Benjamin]. === Trivia === ▲~~<!--~~* ~~'''~~Fun fact:~~'''~~ Did you know that this OS was one of the first candidates chosen for a potential new VM 0b0t snapshot based on Windows Vista, back in February 2023?

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 ~~upgrade~~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.
