  1. Yes, I renamed the file and made a shortcut to that file.
  2. I have been to that site and didn't see that. Thanks, I will try this.
  3. Not here. Can anyone else confirm or deny that resizing the newly created duplicate .msc file allows resizing (stretched to screen height for example) to get saved?
  4. After doing additional research it appears the blame is on this new so called 'feature' called Libraries. So, the next question is, can this questionably, so called feature be removed, turned off, or better yet not installed in the first place using RT Lite (or similar)?
  5. I did find that you can rename that file and save it, but you still have the problem of window size and a new problem of sorting columns. You use to be able to sort each column and it would remember that sort even after you sort another. Keeping the list in alphabetical under 'Name', active under 'Status' and Automatic under 'Startup. Now, there seems to be a glitch when trying to do the same where the Startup doesn't completely remember the order by placing all services that are in 'Auto' at the top when all three columns are sorted. This makes it real easy to see whats' what. See the attachment for my example with XP. All three columns are in decending order showing names alphabetically, then the running services and lastly, services set for 'Auto' at the top.
  6. Funny, it worked fine in XP. I disable UAC among many other so called improvements since they weren't needed with XP.
  7. And I'm suppose to know this. I have posted thousands of posts in dozens of forums and never saw anything even close to that before.
  8. XP with all the driver & compatibility updates for media of Win7! Since Win7 doesn't let you do everything even with the hidden Admin account.
  9. Why on earth has M$ prevented the ability to remember window resizing?? This is ridiculous. Without using a 3rd party program (which seems to be the norm for anything past XP to fix all the shortcomings), is there any way for Win7 to remember anything other than the last window resizing??
  10. I have looked high and low to fix the problem of remembering changes to the Services console that I use all the time with no avail. I go through the process (as hidden Admin) by using the 'Author' right click option, uncheck the 'do not save changes' option, but it won't allow overwriting the existing Services console file. I then tried renaming the file with a "1" after the name, it saved it, but only limited changes where saved. What happened to the change attribute fix in XP that worked fine? I can't beleive M$ has done this. For what purpose?????
  11. Gee, that looks familiar. There is a option in the BIOS do switch from the AHCI mode to IDE which I had to do to install my XP Pro w/sp3 disc that I have made from nLite. The orginal Laptop came with XP Pro w/sp3 that I had to complete the O/S loading process (which I never had to do with a older HP custom built Laptop with the optional XP Pro, not Win7). The Laptop was set for AHCI. I never used that 'Hotfixes' page before.
  12. Don't you just love fixing these Chinese manufactures stupidity? Almost as bad as trying to install that UAA pre-driver (as I call it) on a system with XP w/sp3 and get a message that the package is older that the SP even though sp3 doesn't have the UAA pre driver installed.
  13. The next question; If I manage to do this, can that disc be used on other MB's that don't have that specif chipset? Will the O/S just ignore those files??
  14. I read over some of the FAQ's regarding slipstreaming drivers, but most was over my head. My situation is this: HP Laptop 6545b that requires SATA drivers so I can set a BIOS option to AHCI instead of IDE before I load the O/S. The driver package from HP is a single .exe that I extracted to another .exe which I extracted to a folder with 13 files and a sub folder. There are three .cab files, only one that I can extract further. The simple question is, what do/can I place in the nLite window to make this work without all of the complicated scripts etc. that I see posted??
  15. Questions; 1. DISM; I found out what it stand stands for, but exactly what is it used for?? 2. Why is WAIK 7 needed? 3. Why can't this program be run in XP? If it is the above issue, can't this WAIK be installed in XP? Would someone translate this?
  16. The OP needs to be updated. It's almost a year old!
  17. I use to use that program to change the splash screen within the ntoskrnl.exe file when I ran 2k. Now I use TuneUp Utilities ability to just add different splash screens to that file (or how ever it is done).
  18. Golly! Someone other than muself finally asked this question. I wish I had a dollar for everytime I deleted something when I just wanted to rename it. But, there is still no solution to the OP?
  19. I understand there is alot to it, foor something as that to work. It would make more sense since it doesn't stick, just to remove the choice from the setup. Yes. I have always used the default 'DefaultHide" mode and never had this issue. I assume it was one of the services I disabled since that was the only real change.I wonder if sp3 might have someting to do with this since I only started using sp3?
  20. Never saw that 'catch'. It shouldn't really matter since the default driver will allow resolutions over 1600x1200. You shouldn't need a specific driver (which I don't want to add since I wanted this to be a universal install CD). No, never done this. I vagely remember reading about this, but never looked into it.There is still the issue about the network name not sticking when it did before. Anyone else?
