old thread alert, but also a very useful one. I use this often for new pc's to get up to scratch and it works fine with XP. I want to now use with W2k3 Server but the code that Ctrl-X wrote doesn't work. I'm think and can't code for toffee but understand vaguely what he was doing. So, Can anybody hash it to work with W2k3 Server please? NeilW [edit] all sorted and will test and update tonight when home now understand teh skip & tokens -> which is key bit here For XP SP3 use ECHO MS Windows XP Service Pack 3 FOR /F "TOKENS=3*" %%V IN ('REG QUERY "HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion" /v CSDVersion') DO SET CSDVERSION=%%V %%W IF "%CSDVERSION%"=="Service Pack 3" ( ECHO is already installed ) ELSE ( ECHO Installing... %CDROM%\KB???????.exe /quiet /forcerestart /n /f ECHO Installation complete. ) pause you will need filename entered as i do not know it off top of head [/edit] [edit] This will now work on XP and W2k3 fine and dandy. slightly modified to remove the SKIP=n command as not needed [/edit]

wasn't this a known issue? something to do with llp and microsoft released an update for xp and sp1 for vista - may be miles of the mark mine so beware.

a quick google located this web page at HP -> http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/documen...lc=en&cc=us and then this: http://www.e4allupgraders.info/dir1/mother...downloads.shtml could try MSI own website as it is their mainboard

or you could try something like this link: http://www.msfn.org/board/index.php?showtopic=40838 and yes i know it says for XP, but they both have a registry and key you can search for.....

good find nick, cheers.

ok thanks, strel. will wait with baited breath as found it really useful for x32 machine.

Have used this when on x32, but have since upgraded to x64 for learning. Was wondering, would this work for x64?

good idea that link. only found the other day myself and helped so much especially with the mouse

cheers, nice of them to confuse for the only reason of confusion

Hello, searched, well tried as i can never use it on this site, for the phrase; access is denied when you open some folders, like for example; C:\USER\APPLICATION DATA why is this so? i need to change a file in one for vmware but am unable to access the folder to see if file exists as a side, where has the search function gone? used to be a right click or start menu option but no more

one of the best threads i've seen in a long as was wondering how best to not install the AIR & .com rubbish and removing the updater is abonus cheers all

All, This is for IE7 x64 bit VISTA ONLY. The updates are those listed here: http://www.microsoft.com/technet/security/current.aspx using criteria: Product/Technology: Internet Explorer 7.0 for Windows Vista x64 Service Pack: n/a Update Severity Rating: Critical / Important / Moderate / Low let us know what you think. will do best to keep on top of this. do not have vista to test against, but guess will work as does for xp NeilW IE7_Vista_x64_enu.ulz

All, This is for IE7 x64 bit XP ONLY. The updates are those listed here: http://www.microsoft.com/technet/security/current.aspx using criteria: Product/Technology: Internet Explorer 7.0 for Windows XP Professional x64 Edition Service Pack: n/a Update Severity Rating: Critical / Important / Moderate / Low my first real go, well only just found time to do this. i incorporated these in to my nlite build and Automatic Updates found none. let us know what you think. will do best to keep on top of this. jcarle, if i'm not supposed to upload with prior permission, apologies.

RBCC I can see that all line seem to have been commented out. i.e they all look like this:: <!-- <Display Level="full" CompletionNotice="yes" SuppressModal="no" AcceptEula="no" /> --> remove the:: <!-- & --> try again and see what goes

i thought this thread would be usefull as thought of changing from xp 64 to vista 64, but went from informative to bashing - please stick to the point folks and now it is is no use to me.

just installed and like the new interface will play more it offered me an update to the one and that applied all ok the others have changed so bingo bango

that last step has helped me so much a quick go and all is working - thank you thank you thank you

ah cheers jcarle, you've taken my learning away from me. will find another to do now

cheers jcarle, and sorry for delay been away for while. those steps regarding the save as & zip as etc i don't recall seeing in the steps so will have another go and see what happens. woohoo the last step of the save as .ul & then zip up as .zip and then rename as .ulz has made it all work thank you fella and all for looking and chipping in.

tried and no luck always gives me what i had previous even uninstalled and re-installed and still gives me what i had loaded before thanks for helping, i will crack this means then that my attempt probably works.... could you please have a look at my thread and see if it does? at least i'll know that is ok and just need to know why app will not see any i create. i'm using the newest version and your using one before then which may have a bearing?!?!

nope nothing in the program folder, even after waiting 5mins only seem to see the ulz in the c:\temp folder starting to get annoying now

yeah i get all that, but when i decompress using WUD it dumps file sin temp folder and are ulz, and when i right click to open in notepad++ it is gibberish i can use the one in this thread: http://www.msfn.org/board/Office-2003-ENU-...07-t101763.html to read as opens as a text file viewable and editable. I can't fathom how to open a ulz as an xml file to play with. How did you do it? we will win

i would love to answer, but have no idea as i can't my own to work, hence my thread asking to know if what i had done works. Do you know how to make a .ul or is it .ulz file? I mean do we just save as? or is there a trick!!

no worries man and good luck as my first go is failing for an unknown reason

i suggest doing as I, read the UL Schema note from jcarle and try to create one. I'm in the process of learning for two reason: a: my benefit & knowledge b: help others who have done this also but can no longer continue
