Incroyable HULK

EDIT: Ok, I see a DirectX icon in the control panel... Never noticed before but there is no such icon if you don't add this .cpl to system32 ?

I think you should provide a few more details... folder structure, what you are trying to boot, what software you are using for multi-boot, etc. There is too many things I can think of right now so it would help us to narrow what you are looking for

You are talking about one single computer already installed, not your Unattended CD. Because what we want is to integrate these hotfixes so we don't have to go to Windows Update every time we install a new computer...

@ Bilou_Gateux c'est fait! it's done!

I don't think so... afterall if you take a look in your svcpack folder (inside I386) you get the hotfixes copied over and some simple entry in svcpack.inf. If it hadn't worked for you I would have suggested you do it the old fashion way like we use to with Windows XP SP1 Here is the current svcpack.inf [CatalogHeader] [Version] BuildNumber=2600 MinorVersion=1 MajorVersion=5 Signature="$WINDOWS NT$" [SetupData] CatalogSubDir="\I386\svcpack" [SetupHotfixesToRun] KB886185.exe /q /n /z KB885836.exe /q /n /z KB885835.exe /q /n /z KB873339.exe /q /n /z KB885626.exe /q /n /z KB834707.exe /q /n /z [ProductCatalogsToInstall] KB886185.cat KB885836.cat KB885835.cat KB873339.cat KB885626.cat KB834707.cat

Hummm. I just tested on my Windows XP Pro SP2 English distribution folder and I had no problem using the /integrate: switch... The proper method to integrate these hotfixes is to download the hotfixes and then go to the command prompt: KBxxx.exe /integrate: ABSOLUTE PATH TO YOUR INSTALLATION FILES (the root where I386 is located) There is no need to unpack the hotfixes before doing so.

If you follow the download link provided in this post: Sticky: HOTFIXES: Win2000 SP4 – WinXP SP1 – WinXP SP2 You can select the proper language from a drop down box (change language) on the download page... kind of easier than what you suggested

Keep in mind the count is for CRITICAL UPDATES!

From the command prompt: KBxxx.exe /integrate: ABSOLUTE PATH TO YOUR INSTALLATION FILES (the root where I386 is located)

Added some more results from the Forum of EasyBoot... keep'em coming!

SIMULATION DONE for Windows 2000 SP4: 3 New Critical Updates KB873339 KB885835 KB885836 Merry Christmas to everyone! Don't eat and drink to much

Already done!

Ok.. keep me updated, I will add these non-critical updates at the bottom. SIMULATION DONE for Windows XP SP1: 3 New Critical Updates KB873339 KB885835 KB885836 that's it! I am running Win2000 SP4 now...

is it a critical update? I don't get it with Windows Update

OH! the VPN is back... I'm gonna run the Windows XP SP1 Simulation now... my telecom guy will still get a slap in the back of the head tomorrow!

Crap! I just had the time to get the HotFixes for XP SP2. My VPN connection is not working anymore so I won't be able to run my simulation for win2000 SP4 and WinXP SP1. I'm gonna kick the butt of my telecom guy tomorrow. Anyway.. I got theses for Windows XP SP2 KB886185 New! KB885836 New! KB885835 New! KB873339 New! KB834707 KB885626 (only show when you have an Intel Prescott D-0 core) I will update in a few minutes...

Ok! figured out. I turn out this program is included in the Ultimate Boot CD... so I just extracted the .IMG file from there. I think the only thing missing was a boot sector...

I was browsing on my LongHorn Alpha 4074 and I found this: Once you have downloaded the Windows Memory Diagnostic, you get a small .exe wich allow to create either an ISO file or write to a diskette. The problem is that in both case you get a single file called windiag... that's it, the ISO and the diskette aren't bootable and there is no more information about how to launch them... So I did a first test by using a MS-DOS 6 minimal bootable floppy and tried to launch the app without success... Any idea?

Yep! It is becoming really too easy... we are not used to that with M$

I will do that... I hate it when there is so many options for floppy creation.

hummm... I don't have MOUSE.COM and nGhost.BAT in my installation folder... can I take mouse.com elsewhere and build a nGhost.bat myself (is there other stuff in that .bat)

Actually, EasyBoot is converting 24Bits images to 16Bits so there is no "true" 24Bits mode. I suppose this could come later.. I wanted to see if there was a difference between a "pure" 16Bits (done with ACDsee) and a 24Bits converted automatically by EasyBoot to 16Bits... and actually there is! Because you can notice the difference in the text when using 640x480 mode. Thanks for the result! BTW it is an integrated GeForce MX440 right? If so on wich chipset?

Ok Cool! I'll do that when I grab Ghost 2003. A few interrogations: 1- I suppose there is no network support with this method (unless there is a switch for that too!) 2- I can put the command into Autoexec.bat and then build a floppy image of this stuff. (I prefer to run self-contained floppy images) 3- TimeZone? what are the benefit Thanks again prathapml

Well... for now I am using Acronis Disk Director Suite 9 wich is a lot better that Partition Magic... but still I wanted to add this one to my multiboot CD/DVD for those rare cases where Acronis is unable to load (really rare ) So I downloaded an All-In-One Norton CD (I don't think it is an official release ) and I just took the 2.88Mo Floppy Image of Partition Magic 8.0.5 and it seems to be working a lot better than my 8.0.1 version. Now I want to add Ghost to my CD/DVD so I bough the newest version 9. I am really dissapointed because 1- You cannot create a floppy version of this product! 2- Booting from the CD doesn't allow to create an Image, only in Windows!!! 3- It is just too big to be integrated on a CD... it is based on WinPE So once again, I'll take a look into the All-In-One Norton CD and extract a Ghost 2003 Floppy image? **** Symantec

Don't give up! Remember it is a public BETA you are dealing with. Wether you like it or not, driver and software support for those beast will come about when Intel will launch their 64Bits extension to the market along with Microsoft decision to release the software. Remember there is 3 modes available in your BIOS for the 64-Bits processors 1- 32-Bits pure 2- 64-Bits compatible with 32-Bits 3- 64-Bits Pure I am expecting a F*&?%)G MESS when this stuff hit the market... compatibility issues, software update, stability, ARGGGGGGG!
