[HOTFIXES: Windows XP SP2 & Windows 2000 SP4]

Does anyone have a download link for KB896256 or can someone send me the hotfix?

Or if no one has it, could someone give me the e mail address that I can contact Microsoft on so they will send me it.

[Edit boot.ini during runonceex?]

Would it be possible to just copy a modifed boot.ini during runonceex that would overwrite the default boot.ini?

Though I think with BOOTCFG that this would work

bootcfg /raw "/USEPMTIMER" though I'm not sure.

[Edit boot.ini during runonceex?]

Would it be possible to add a switch to the boot.ini during the runonceex part of my install or even during cmdlines.txt?

I need to add the /usepmtimer switch.

[HOTFIXES: Windows XP SP2 & Windows 2000 SP4]

I notice ryans site has a ton of hotfixes that don't have download links on microsofts site, does anyone have download links for these updates?

[Extracting Files From An Msi]

I ended up using the /a switch and doing an admin install point, and pointing it to my hard drive.

[Extracting Files From An Msi]

I need to extract an MSI so I can get the files from inside, is this possible?

It's a driver, I would prefer to have the driver files instead of using an installer

[Move to/Copy to tweak problem]

"Play All" ?

I don't see that option becoming available when I use this DLL.

And how to un-register this one?

The standard way - "regsvr32 /U path-to-DLL"

I mean the play all button in music folders in the left bar doesn't work at all, but yes this dll stops the move to and copy to boxes appearing.

I tried doing the standard unregistor but it wasn't working.

[Copy2 * Move2 Fixed]

How would you unregister this context menu?

Because unless I'm doing something wrong then play all doesn't even work, I click it but it doesn't start loading any files

[.NET Framework 1.1 Service Pack]

but ok only if run from the harddisk!

Same here! Let's see if somebody comes up with a solution. :whistle

So I do the same - getting the SFX to extract to HD, and then start setup!

This is my SFX commands, shouldn't this extract the files to the hard drive so you wouldn't have the problems you are having?

;The comment below contains SFX script commands

Setup=netfx.msi /QB

I would like a gmail account too if possible

Thanks

No, there's no other entry associated with it. Simply delete that directory.

What is this line from txtsetup.sif for then?

[Flash OCX for SP2 2180]

Kool. So this installs the latest version of Flash with Windows XP SP2 Final?

Yeah

[Flash OCX for SP2 2180]

Seems to be only me posting in this thread, anyway I have modded the files myself and tested and it works, so here are the modded files:

[Ident files]

I've just slipstreamed SP2 to my SP1 cd and the root of the cd now has an ident file for each version, do I need to keep the win51ip.SP1 file, or do I only need the win51ip.SP2 file?

[Flash OCX for SP2 2180]

This is what I am talking about, has someone tried it with the version in SP2 2180?

[Flash OCX for SP2 2180]

Could someone edit the ini so that we can unattend the latest version of flash with this service pack because it comes with flash 6 by default. I can paste the contents of the ini to make it easier

[Network Components problem]

Do you have default network components set to no? Because how I posted is exactly how I do it in my own installs and I only ever have tcp/ip installed.

[Network Components problem]

Add:

[NetClients]

[NetServices]

like that with nothing under each heading.

[Client for Microsoft networking]

I have try it and IT's WORKS!

Great! Thank you! 

But the "file and printer sharing from microsoft networking" is enabled / installed. Can I also disabled that function in the unattend file?

Add:

[NetServices]

Without anything under that heading.

[Client for Microsoft networking]

It's really simple actually you just add:

[NetClients]

with nothing under that heading and it doesn't install any.

[Nvmixer]

Has anyone managed to make an unattended nvmixer install? It uses an installshield file, I made an iss file which works fine in normal windows, but doesn't seem to work when I try on a fresh install in unattend.

It requires direct X 9b to be installed, which I install at the same time as the mixer, would I need to install it after a reboot do you think?

[Hotfixes For Windows XP Professional SP1]

KB article doesn't exist, and it doesn't show on WU (it would if it was critical) and its also dated 16th December. I'm not so sure about this one just yet...

It updates all the files found in Q828026 to higher versions so why not list it?
