    Vistapack, 1.6.0 Released

    in Customizing Windows

    Posted · Edited by ChrisKuhli

    the best part is that it doesnt need a service running and sucking memory to do its thing

    I've could have a look on the new Beta of the next major version ;)

    Very nice but your suggestion(s) will be then in Vistapack 2.1 Beta :)

    *I* hope that damian666 will be in future (re-)enable support for installation patching, and then unattended :P

    Windows 2000 Boot Screen Progress Bar Modding?

    in Customizing Windows

    Posted · Edited by ChrisKuhli

    Hi,

    I'm just wondering if it is possible... and if so how... to modify the windows 2000 progress bar on the boot screen. Can i load in my own custom made .bmp which uses the same 16 color palette as the rest of the boot image?

    Thanks!

    Regards, Mortagen

    One way: have a look into my sources ;)

    I've done it like that: I took ntoskrnl.exe in the tgtsoft resource hacker. The embedded bitmaps i modified with it and saved in the patching dirs. Now i loaded in the reshacker (the one XPero uses) the files and put them into copies of the orgininal ntoskrnl file to test that. After that i build the patching as needed for my pack. Then i reverted the Kernel file and tried the patch via my pack!

    hi, nice pack.

    out of curiosity I tried integrating it into the source for an unattended setup.

    seems to work fine, however when I get to the login screen I cannot figure out how to login as there are no user names to click.

    I have not as yet incorporated any usernames in my unattended setup, so only using administrator.

    Any ideas? am I just being dense :whistle:

    thanks

    Hmm... i hope you don't mean my pack (in Windows 2000) ;) i don't develop (with) it yet...

    @All: If you have no problem what my sources http://chriskuhli.de/x2k/cX2K.rar containing try a bit debugging :)

    Using installshield maybe not so good if used on non-iso Windows (e.g. asian language) - might be reason for some unfamiliar errors as also in my package…

    btw although cX2K is stagnated at moment i've a good reason to push its old topic and bind it on my signature website - reason is beginning 2ize development which will be the new base for that!

    Drive Letter Issue: XPx86 (C) and Vistax86 (D)

    in Vize

    Posted · Edited by ChrisKuhli

    Hello :hello:

    I've installed Windows XP Media Center Edition on C: and Vista Ultimate x86 on D. Vize think the files on C:\Windows belong to Vista but that resides on D so it tries patch XP. Of course that fails fortunalety we can restore!

    Either Vize should detect %SysDrive%, or there is a bit more interaction needed?

    I hope for solution in next Beta,

    Chris

    Seems the running platform for it isn't lower than Vista :whistle:

    I consider about adding a Vista beneith the xpMCE on C: and the Evaluation install Win2K3_Ent D: ;)

    Cause my processor supports 64Bit i will use the disk with them :) But what is more interest: Server2K8 (RC) or UltimateVista (Full License of course)

    [Release] XPize Darkside 2.1

    in XPize

    Posted · Edited by ChrisKuhli

    Aware of Win2K3 Server is mostly of course not the goal of a package like this (issues of bootscreen or logon screen replacing). The changed winntbbu.dll doesnt appereared at last installation :(

    Need i edit that file self that the "server" page of it is modified???

    Thanks for any useful answer.

    A small legal hint: My W2K3 is an evalution copy i use only for development testing purposes...

    HELP:

    XPize Darkside 2.1 was released Friday the 12th... As you may have noticed my site has been down all month, this is because I doubled my bandwidth limit in 2 days! I get charged per mb over the limit by £0.02. Now that doesn't sound much does it? When you multiply that by 4,874mb it comes in at £97.48 (and thats before they've added VAT!!!)... I've just had my bill through, and I do not have the finance to pay for it!

    Help me, help you... DONATE!

    zedox, i could give you an upload account at christiankuhlmann.eu, with subdomain. Interested as mirror for you? Then u may upload there by yourself, e.g. zedox.christiankuhlmann.eu ;)

    (machine.config) der jitDebugging-Wert im Abschnitt system.windows.forms festgelegt werden.
    Die Anwendung muss mit aktiviertem Debuggen kompiliert werden.

    Zum Beispiel:

    <configuration>
        <system.windows.forms jitDebugging="true" />
    </configuration>

    Wenn das JIT-Debuggen aktiviert ist, werden alle nicht behandelten
    Ausnahmen an den JIT-Debugger gesendet, der auf dem
    Computer registriert ist, und nicht in diesem Dialogfeld behandelt.


    Hint: I use(d) Vize 0.5 and this happens at start of patching before any file is changed!

    EDIT: My Windows is not a vLited one... no special options. Should i disable system file protection?

    I dont know why the Cd patching is causing a crash at the first boot after installation? Very Weird :unsure:

    It might be in conjunction with the doing of kernel patching while doing with the installation source...

    In situations like that were a good idea having a debug (log) option for testing purposes like damian666 within his Vistapack!
