Hi Mimo! I just tried the latest File Checker, file named hfslipfc-091213.zip, with hfslipfc.cmd dated 12/13/2009 11:58 pm, against HFSLIP files put together using your update list dated 12/11 EXACTLY, with the following results: (note the heading "File-Checker (Build 2009/12/11)") I thought that several of the unknown items were supposed to be taken care of in this latest version. Also, all 3 of the files that are flagged as obsolete are still listed in Table 2 as required, and in fact, the file your program lists as the appropriate replacement for KB969898, ie KB973346, is listed in Table 7 as being replaced itself by KB973525. I also noticed that Kiki Burgh is having problems with WindowsXP-KB968930-x86-ENG.exe in the post above. I assume I will, too, since I'm trying basically the same setup. Any idea what's going on? Please don't misunderstand in any way. I think that this program and your list are absolutely GREAT and you do a fantastic job keeping it up to date and being responsive to anyone with a problem. I can see this program evolving into something along the lines of Autopatcher, or using a download mechanism similar to what's used in this tool, where you would check off the various options you want included, IE8, WMP11, etc, and it goes off and downloads all the current updates that HFSLIP needs and puts them in the correct folder for you, if you don't have them there already, and then it gives you the option of going ahead and running HFSLIP, or not - if you want to change anything. Anyway, I can dream. Looking forward to your reply. Cheers and Regards.

Hi strel! I just found this thread yesterday, about time I know, and want to both Thank You for all your hard work and commend you for how thorough, how fully documented, and well commented it is, and how quickly you've been keeping it up to date! Great job! I do think I found a small typo, though. After all the work that you and Kiki Burgh went through, for my first try I basically copied Kiki Burgh's setup and ran that. It seemed to build the files fine, but as I looked closer at the Command Window before I answered "Y" to delete the temp folder, I noticed an error message. Right after: "Checking .NET stuff to build installer(s)/addon(s) for XP..." was the message: "'NOTE:' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file." Looking at _SNMsynth.cmd, I found that Line 352 was missing an "ECHO" before "NOTE: MSXML6 !DNF30VER! component will be ...". This causes the entire IF statement to not be processed, so my msxml6.msi was not utilized, even though it was there. (It probably wasn't for Kiki Burgh, either, unfortunately.) After adding the ECHO, and rerunning, (I love how you create a new OUT folder if needed, that's great) I then got the message "NOTE: MSXML6 3.0 SP2 component will be updated with msxml6.msi", as expected. With further looking, I also found that Line 297 was missing an "ECHO" before "NOTE: NDP20SP1-KB946223-x86.exe is a ...", and Line 66 seems to be missing the "ECHO &ECHO." pair around the line "NOTE: _SNMsynth.ini is not present, default non restrictive settings will be used." I'm not sure if this had any impact on me or not. With all the great commentary you have, it's a wonder these were the only typo's I found. With my fumble fingered typing, it would have been a total disaster for a good long time as I tried to find all my mistakes! Like Kiki Burgh, I would find it convenient if .NET 1.0 SP3 were included in this .NET Maker and up to date since I also am trying to use Windows XP Tablet PC 2005 (English) by CODYQX4. If you are looking at the possibility of adding this, please look at the addon that onepiece did for CODYQX4, also available at the above link, because I've been told that Tablet PC requires a "special" version of 1.0 SP3, but I don't know what's special about it, I just know that onepiece's version works. Reading all the latest entries in that thread, I don't know if adding 1.0 SP3 is possible at T-13, but all I can do is ask. No big deal either way. [Kiki, I sent you a PM.] Sorry for the long post, but I hope my comments help make this program even better. All the best. Cheers and Regards.

No. Please reread the 1st post. In version 1.5.5 Office 2007 support is added. This is not real slipstream, Service Packs and hotfixes will be just extracted to Updates folder. Process of slipstreaming is tested with Standard and Enterprise edition. In order to improve support for Office 2007, I need list of files of all Office 2007 editions (except Standard and Enterprise), so when you load your Office 2007 into Slipstreamer, in root folder of the tool will be created file "Office2007FileList.txt". To help me, please upload this file for me. Cheers and Regards.

Yes, I believe you should be able to add the hibernation option to the shutdown menu of MCE the same way that you enable in in XP. Cheers and Regards.

This is correct, AFAIK. Cheers and regards.
