    Before I tell you what I want, I swear to be EXTRA Careful, and NOT re-write ANYTHING!

    I need to know if anyone can recomend a good Sector Editor for Windows.
    This is an application I can use to examine the CODE that is actually written on my HD.(s) We used to call them "Sector Editors". These are what the Feds use to see exactly what's been deleted but not yet over written on our machines.
    (Knowledge of programming languages REQUIRED to know what you're reading.)

    Can anyone suggest something I can maybe get from Kazaa or other P2P?
    Thanks.

    Why would you want it down to that level? If you are trying to be sure that something is gone then I can suggest a real good program, if it is to recover something then again I can suggest another program. You can still use an old disk editor program from boot up, prior to windows. I will look through my mess here and find the disk and see if it is on SuprNova or Limewire for you.

    What I want it for, is two reasons. I want to begin to learn Programming at the basic level, and I want to learn to Crack some stuff.

    Bottom line: I just aquired a $700 program, which the Hard Rock Hotel uses to play the songs you hear in the Casino. (All MP3 btw!) I wanna CRACK that sucker!

    I'm not sure about programs to do that, but as far as learninng assembly I just wanted to say right on! It's really pretty fun, and not too hard... :D Assembly is probably my favorite language, it's so extremely logical... :D I'll say if I can dig you up some tut's on cracking... :D Oh, and I think what you need for that is a dissassembler... :)

    That's what I need IF it can read the Hard Drive, and rewrite what you edited.
    Back in the C= (Commodore 64/128) days, we called them Sector Editors.
    Did the same job basically.

    The dissassembler is more for changin exes to machine code, but, you can read the hardrive and write to it through the dos debug cmd... A dissambler I think you should with a better debug tools, which should let you write to sectors on the harddrive as well I believe... :D

    If you alll ready know how to program in another language,,, say C than you can just use the debug feature on most IDE's to view the disassembled version of your program. Also you may want to look into something like HLA (High level asm) for starting out in machine code.. Once you gain the basic concepts it's not that hard to start really messing around with your hardware... BTW I would advice that you don't run your 'new' assembly programs on your main machine, you would be surprised how much you can mess things up lmao.... As far as reverse engineering software goes, there are various products out their that can help you, most of the really good ones that are free are on the Linux platform, but for an advanced computer user throwing Linux on your hdd is about as simple as it gets.. I will warn that a program like the one you speak of might be hard to understand in disassembled form, also if your on a MS platform you might remember from the old DOS days that microsoft just places a ? infront of a file name when it deletes it (hint, hint).. I would learn basic C if your really itching to mess with the hardware side of things, there is some pretty chill header files out there for C, bios.h , dir.h, dos,h, memory.h etc etc... good luck man......

    As for cracking..back in the C=64 days sector editors like FastHackem' were great..but usualyl only needed due to the way disks were used..(e.g. the application ran from floppy, so they could put code outside of files on the floppy and just go get it from sector xx:xx) nowadays only system files are going to be in a fixed place (i suppose if its a cd-only application they could use something like that..but very unlikely) so you are much better off trying to disect files at the api or bit level...note i said files, not sectors...so two utilitees to get for windows:
    1: any HexEditor you like (search there are tons)
    and:
    ResHack its all over on the web, try http://www.users.on.net/johnson/resourcehacker/ or google it

    i completly agree with xaos here. there are plenty of "how to's" on cracking on the net if your up for some light reading.

    Fuck it. I'll just foreward a copy to two friends, and hope for the best. I'll let you all know what I get back. $700 is fucked for an MP3 player anyway! (ONE of those friends Cracked Windows XP!)

    If it's at all popular, odds are there is already a crack out there... Try searching a p2p network for one... :D

    Does it need a seriel? If so, send me an email and I'll reply with some nice sites with cracks/seriels.

    ICQ: 318-571-783
    AIM: Deftones 2K8
    Email: ajwatson@gmail.com

    Also, when you start to crack it disconnect from the internet.

    It requires a 4 letter password. Since the cost is $700 Yes, seven hundred dollars US, It is mostly reserved for Night Clubs and such. It also has the ability to control lighting, and has a GREAT Mixer.
    The name of it is: DJPower

    Only 4 letters? Damn, shouldn't be too hard, maybe you could even brute force it? :rolleyes:

    A simple google search turned up multiple sites with keygens for it.... :rolleyes:
    If none of the sites work, try searching a filesharing prog for it, that's usualy fairly reliable... :D

    This is 3.90.1c (Demo version.) One of the Keygen's for 3.86.7 that I found, listed a url for the full version of 3.86.7 but that no longer exists. I'll have to try P2P for that one. Thanks for the help folks!

    I've been searching on Google, Ares, and Kazza for a while now, nothing yet, but I'll keep my eye open.

    4 characters?!?! thats nothing, you could manually brute force it! if its only numbers there are only 10000 combos, if its letters and numbers its probalyl not case sensitive, making 1.6 millions combos, way to long to type, but if you can script it youll be done in NO TIME.
