Some users have recently had their accounts hijacked. It seems that the now defunct EVGA forums might have compromised your password there and seems many are using the same PW here. We would suggest you UPDATE YOUR PASSWORD and TURN ON 2FA for your account here to further secure it. None of the compromised accounts had 2FA turned on.
Once you have enabled 2FA, your account will be updated soon to show a badge, letting other members know that you use 2FA to protect your account. This should be beneficial for everyone that uses FSFT.

Is anyone having any problems running vmware with the F8 fix under Vista x64 SP1? There are rumours that F8 functionality is being removed... Can anyone shed some light on this?
Nope, however depending on when you got SP-1 we found it hurt the performance of relic's machine, that was the original special release to a few targeted people. So far I haven't seen it in my updates.
Are you saying you can't enter safe mode anymore or that the ignore driver signing options is gone?

I will install Vista x64 today or tomorrow but I'm confused about that F8 change ??
with x64, you need to hit F8 at boot to use unsigned drivers, which vmware requires. (or you can not install a KBfix and use some convoluted method, F8 works better for me)
With SP1, there are rumours that the F8 functionality with unsigned drivers checking is somehow disabled. Which would be annoying as shit.
