Hi, I'm doing some compression of executable with UPX. Then I associate some files to that executable. I choose some icon from that specific executable for associated file. In Widows XP, icon is showed on associated file, but in Vista x64 no icon is showed, it shows like unknown file type. I know that I associated correctly, because when I replaced that executable with an uncompressed, icon are showed on Vista x64. What do you think, is this some problem with Vista or UPX? Does anyone know for some alternative for UPX, or for some other tool that can compress resources inside executable. Sometimes when using a Resource Hacker to open some Icon Group inside executable I get message "This file has a non-standard resource layout... it has probably been compressed with an "EXE compressor"." Which compressors might that be? Thanks for any suggestion. Cheers

It's very possible that he is using pirated version. There is also probability that he found somewhere presets for this version and he's using it. But, I think that 90% he's using pirated version. Cheers

Yeah, I noticed that in my Start Menu too, but it disappeared and I don't know how. When I browsed that folder, content was the same as the whole Start Menu. Cheers

I don't blame anyone, just johnhc is longer here, so he should noticed that. Cheers

johnhc, do you see when medi posted this? And he also wasn't active on this forum since then, so I doubt this will be useful from him. Maybe, just for others. Cheers

Yeah, that's it. Thanks. I totally forgot on that. Cheers

Hi, Suddenly my status is set to Anonymous, so my Last seen status is set to private and nobody can see that I'm reading the topic. Is there somewhere setting so I can change this back, and to control it later if I want? Cheers

You probably set half-open TCP connections. Try to increase it with this tool. I recommend value 100. Cheers

You say this is 9.4 version, but you did not updated all files? Nero Control Center is still using old files. Why is that? Cheers

I'm interested in this too. For example I use Diskeeper with Automatic Defrag option, so it defrags my disk every time processor is idle. I'm wondering how much this affects my HDD's? Cheers

Did you try to install 64-bit version of klite? Cheers

Isn't that logical? You need to set it to disabled. And please try not to use so big font, it's not polite. Cheers

I have two questions. Why did you install 9.0b and not 9.0c and why do you put compatibility for Win 2000 when installing on XP? Cheers

Using nLite and RVM Integrator on same XP files is not recommended. Use just nLite, it can do everything as RVM Integrator and more. Cheers

Yeah, I also like v4, it's good, but I upgraded to Vista SP2 and v4 is not compatible with it, so for protection I just have, temporarily, Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware with it Real Time protection, which they finally made for x64 systems. Cheers

Do not use RyanVM Integrator. Use nLite only, it can do everything as that integrator and you won't get advanced inf installation. Combination of different tools is not recommended. Also, if you copy main executable of WMP11 Slipstreamer into nLite folder, then you can use nLite to integrate WMP11 and it's updates. And, it is recommended that you do everything in one season, do not use nLite or some other tool more then once on some files. If you make a mistake in process, it is recommended to start from begin with fresh XP files. Cheers

ZAP! Although it didn't hit the cable, it still can collect a big charge indeed. You are lucky that you didn't fry more. The internal NIC probably isn't going to work anymore. The strange thing is that mine sometimes work, sometimes not, and cousin's is not working at all. But since I have new card now, everything is OK. Have you considered getting a wireless router with directional antennas instead of running a cable outside? Well, this was way cheaper, but it seems it takes higher risk. We did this, because my cousin has no way of connecting to internet because he has some device which gives him telephone line, but adsl can't be used. And where we live, there is no other solution which is cheap as adsl. You'll think maybe that I only look for the price, but in this case I have to. We have a big monopoly here. I'm paying 38€ for 2Mbps/192Kbps and bandwidth is unlimited. And this is the best solution abailable in whole country. In other part of country where this ISP is not available, other ISP does not offer unlimited bandwidth at all. It just have slightlly better speed. Cheers

You can't integrate IE8 exe with nLite. You can only find true addon which will directly integrate with nLite, and that is the same as if you would use .exe. Cheers

If you guys don't have enterprise edition, then unattended is not supported. But there is a way to go around that restriction. Use Search in this forum to find how. This modifications probably breaks EULA, so be warned. Cheers

This trick will work only for not heavily vLited Vista. And, there is no other idea, you will have to use full installation to upgrade, or to get yourself disc with SP2 integrated by Microsoft and then to vLite that disc. Cheers

I checked my cousin's computer and his integrated network card also does not work. This is probably caused by thunderstorm we had. Network cable goes on the roof and then to next house so it probably got some electricity and it damaged our cards and switch. Cheers

OK, I talked with my father, and we did grounding. But, it did not help. I got new card, and everything works fine. It seems that integrated card have some serious problem. But, I'll check it in few weeks to see if anything changes. Cheers

Believe it or not, I never done grounding, so can you please explaing how exactly to do it? Cheers

Yeah, I know, that is not a problem. I 'm just wondering if that could happen. And I'm also having problem with slots in motherboard. My graphic card covered one slot and in other two is my tv card and sound card. But, I'll remove TV card, since I don't use it much. And here card ittle expensier, 7,5 €, but again, it's not problem, I can buy and test it. Thanks for reply. Cheers

Hi, Two days ago, my Asus switch died. I replaced it with new. Since then I'm having very strange problems with my network card. Sometimes it will work, sometimes it will not. I need to keep rebooting until I get connection. Simply, network card does not start at all (LED indicator is off). Card is Atheros L2 Fast Ethernet 10/100Base-T Controller, integrated on my board (model in my signature). First I thought that it is some problem with Vista, and after trying to fix it in all possible ways I could think off, I decided to do a clean install of Vista. After clean install, I just installed latest drivers for network card, which I used before this problem. Problem still exist. Now, I would like to know, if this could be a hardware problem? Is it possible that switch, when died, damaged my network card? And is it possible, that only card is damaged, and rest of my motherboard is fine (I did not notice any other problem for now)? Also, my cousin is having similar problem. He can't get connection at all. He just keeps getting warning of Limited Network Connection. I'm planing to reinstall Windows XP on his computer, just to be sure if it is software of hardware problem too, on his computer. Since I found some malware on his computer and Security Center does not work at all, I'm thinking that it might be software problem, but I will know for sure tomorrow, when I do reinstall. I would like that somebody comment my text in bold. Thanks in advance. Cheers
