  1. It's an interesting program, but it doesn't really "password protect" the executables. It wraps the exe files into another password protected executable then extracts the original exe file out when you run it and type the password. I could do the exact same thing with WinRar. I'd recommend saving your money and just using WinRar to wrap the executables into a self-extracting exe. Not as simple as this program, but WinRar has more usefulness. It's not a one-trick pony. *EDIT* Ok, so I wasn't entirely right. There's no easy way I can find to make WinRar delete the file after you're done with it. So it does have it's usefulness. Though I'm still working to see if I can use WinRar to do what this program does.
  2. He means in your batch file that runs cdimage, copy all the files to your HDD and copy the bootfix.bin over as well, then create the image. Afterwards, delete the folder on your HDD. Here is an example of how I do something similar on my Preinstall DVD: @ECHO OFF IF NOT EXIST %SystemDrive%\ntldr GOTO 9XCOPY :NTCOPY XCOPY .\XPPro %SystemDrive%\XPPro /E /I /H /Y /K > NUL XCOPY ..\Installs %SystemDrive%\XPPro\Installs /E /I /H /Y /K > NUL REN %SystemDrive%\XPPro\i386\winnt.bak winnt.sif cdimage.exe -lXPPRO_PRE -t08/04/2004,07:00:00 -b.\xpboot.bin -h -o -m -n %SystemDrive%\XPPro %SystemDrive%\XPPRO_PRE.ISO PAUSE ECHO. ECHO Cleaning up files from %SystemDrive% RD /S /Q %SystemDrive%\XPPro GOTO EXIT :9XCOPY ECHO. ECHO This process cannot be performed under Win9x ECHO Please use a WinNT-based machine. PAUSE :EXIT Simply modify it to copy what you need it to and you're set.
  3. When you installed Windows, did you delete the "Lang" directory under the AMD64 directory? If so, the additional language options wouldn't be there because they wouldn't be installed. That's what it sounds like happened.
  4. XP Professional x64 Edition is based off Server 2003 SP1 x64 Edition, as johnmallan said. This is why XP Pro x64 shows it's running Service Pack 1. As shown when I run Winver: Version 5.2 (Build 3790.srv03_sp1_rtm.050324-1477 : Service Pack 1)
  5. The winbom.ini only works using the OPK preinstalling over a network. It can't be use to preinstall from the CD.
  6. You can still test with VMWare, because if it gets to a point where it loads ntldr it will just say that your hardware doesn't support this OS. Otherwise it just gives the current message we're all getting.
  7. I think he was just bumping the thread, not posting that he got it working.
  8. Plus, CounterSpy is just a licensed clone of Giant Anti-Spyware, which as I'm sure you all know is now MS Anti-Spyware. I've also seen MS Anti-Spyware pick up wierd things like that, so I think it's just a bug in the Giant code. If you're going to use it though, might as well get the free MS one, since CounterSpy is a pay-for program.
  9. I take offense to it calling me a P3. I'm an AMD for sure.

    PID Info

    Usually those copies are just OEM versions but technically without a "license".
  11. In your boot options in the BIOS, was it set to boot from USB-HDD?
  12. Well, I haven't tried CoD but it should play just fine. And UT2k4 and Farcry both play great. In fact, there's even a 64-bit patch for Farcry.
  13. I'm not entirely sure I agree with the extension one, but the OS one was pretty spot-on.
  14. heh, I didn't see this coming:
  15. Well, so long as my flash drives aren't flashing (indicating in-use), I've never had an instance where I couldn't just unplug it and everything worked.
  16. What's the big deal about "Safely remove hardware"? It's not necessary so long as you make sure nothing is writing to the drive when you unplug it. As long as it's not in use, it's safe to unplug.
  17. With RD, you can connect to any machine for which the following conditions are met: 1) It's running XP Pro or a server OS with RD/TS enabled 2) It has no firewall blocking the necessary port to connect (3389) 3) You have a username/password for that computer It can be on a LAN, through a VPN or over the internet. It makes no difference (with the exception that over the internet is potentially less secure).
  18. Well, it will once v4 comes out. But it's still in beta testing atm and will not be available until they've thoroughly tested it for bugs. In the meantime, FantomDVD works ok.
  19. Yeah, my friend one time had some spyware on his ME machine (yeah, I know. ME *is* spyware) that caused Explorer to crash everytime you try to open My Computer. Once the spyware was cleaned off, everything worked fine.
  20. I think he means pre-compiled executables, not batch files converted to exe.
  21. He's going by the instructions on http://flyakite.msfnhosting.com:
  22. Could be it had ingrained itself into your winsock and removing it caused a winsock failure. I found some reg entries to reset the Winsock and converted it into a self-extracting rar file that checks to make sure you're running x64 Windows (so it doesn't install under 32-bit XP) and then installs the reg entries to reset the Winsock then reboots the computer. Hopefully that should fix your problem. http://rockent.brinkster.net/files/TCP-IP_Reset_x64.exe You can also try this VBS Winsock fix, but it was designed for 32-bit XP, not x64. But given your install is already hosed, it can't hurt anything more than it is. http://rockent.brinkster.net/files/WinsockXPFix.exe Last ditch attempt would be to do a repair install by booting from the CD. Good luck.
  23. Well, I don't know for certain, but the safest method I would say would be to disable auto-format and auto-partition and set those manually. Afterwards the rest of the setup will still be fully automated. I did that last time I installed XP x64 on my work machine but wanted it on the second HDD. To do so, set the following values in your winnt.sif: [Data] AutoPartition="0" [Unattended] Repartition="No"
  24. I just used the same commands I used previously for Adobe Reader 6 (never could figure out why they dropped the Acrobat name from the reader). This is run after login from a batch file executed from guirunonce. start /wait %CDROM%\Installs\AdobeReader\AdbeRdr70.exe -q /s /v/qn
