  1. or better yet, just do away with AIM altogether and use Yahoo!IM.
  2. Inref this post: Guide to create Net Framework 1.1 w/SP-1 combined by bitmonster A. Has anyone used this to do a compressed install of PLUS!? B. Will it work or am I wasting my time? C. Will removing the instmsi*.* files cause any problems if I just use the updated msiexec.exe from the slipstreamed i386 folder on the disk? (expanded and renamed of course.) This is what I have done so far: (x:\ is referring to the drive I am using for the temp folders, can be any drive.) 1. Copied the entire CD to x:\PLUS\PLUS! 2. Removed instmsi*.* from the x:\PLUS!\PLUS! folder and replaced them with msiexec.exe. 3. I also renamed the .msi installer to PLUS!.msi and made my config text file to include: ;!@Install@!UTF-8! Title="MICROSOFT PLUS! FOR WINDOWS XP" RunProgram="MSIEXEC /i PLUS!.MSI /qb!-" ;!@InstallEnd@! Placing it in my x:\PLUS folder 4. Copied 7zs.sfx (already UPX'd) and 7za.exe to X:\PLUS 5. Then I run the command: ..\7za.exe a "PLUS!.7z" -r -mx=7 -mfb=255 =md=48 * (this is where I am at now, but I intend to finish up:) 6. Run the command: COPY /b 7zs.sfx + config.txt + Plus!.7z Plus!.exe 7. Copy the new PLUS!.exe to my $OEM$\$1\Install folder 8. Using RunOnceEx.cmd, call it during unattended using: cmdow @ /HID @echo off set tagfile=\WIN51 for %%i in (c d e f g h i j k l m n o p q r s t u v w x y z) do if exist "%%i:%tagfile%" set CDROM=%%i: SET OEMPATH=%CDROM%\$OEM$ SET OEMINSTALL=%CDROM%\$OEM$\$1\Install REG ADD %KEY%\043 /VE /D "PLUS!" /f REG ADD %KEY%\043 /V 1 /D "7za x -y -aoa %OEMINSTALL%\Plus!.exe -o%systemdrive%\Plus!" /f REG ADD %KEY%\043 /V 2 /D "%OEMINSTALL%\Plus!.exe" /f The first key will copy and extract it to my HDD for future needs, the second line will install it from the CD, hopefully, assuming I am doing this correctly. Can anyone enlighten me if I am?
  3. Reason I am inquiring about it, is I am in the process of attempting to do the same thing to install PLUS! for Windows XP using this manner so I can get the entire CD on the DVD I am building. *EDIT* I should mention I am not using the above script, but the previous one as a guide to build it, but I was also considering installing other apps at the same time as this. Question moved here.
  4. That's what I was meaning but you clarified me anyways... Ahh ok, now I understand why it didn't say EOF anywhere in there seperately, again thanks for the clarification here. Also, thanks for clearing this up for me as well:
  5. @bitmonster If I get you right your installing the .netfx1.1sp1 plus the language pack, highmat and jviewer all at the same time with this script? Also, while looking over the code, it seems to be missing some of it, such as where is EOF, and wont it cause an error without it? It looks as if it should be just before the line: instead of two lines above it, unless there is more to it?One more question, while I am at it, in the following: what is a /Dnetfxsp1 switch?
  6. ok, thanks to both of you. I don't recall if I had read the other thread or not, but now I am cleared up on what to do, thanks to both of you. I do have one last clarification question, when naming the file so it installs silently, I would use setup.exe for the name of the file and stick it into a folder on my UXPCD called DOTNETFX, (assuming it's not already there from slipstream onto an SP-1 version of XP, I would create this folder in the root of the UXPCD,) making sure it's the only file in that folder, correct? This will force Windows XP SP-2 to actually install the file during install or will I need to place it in my $OEM$\$1\Install folder and call it from say RunOnceEx.cmd? That's the biggest problem I am having now, is where to put this file and how to install it silently while running my UXPCD. Yes, I read what prathapml said about calling for it in the install, but someone else mentioned something about just putting it in the DOTNETFX folder as well, I want to do this as simply as possible.
  7. Did the one I sent not work for what you were attempting to do?
  8. ::Putting self in newby mode to ask questions:: Ok, now let me get this straight, I extract both of the DOTNETFX.EXE and the NDPSP.EXE from the SP-2 CD to somewhere, (using the /c switch?) and get the three files from them, netfx.msi and netfx1.cab and MSP, move them to a seperate folder, deleting the rest. Then I create a what? (AIP?) from the .msi and .cab? And how do I go about using the MSP to patch it? I also take it once I have done all this creating and patching I just put my empty DOTNETFX folder on my UXPCD and put this newly created file in it, wont I need any of the other files from the CD version of that folder in there as well? Also, how am I making sure it's being installed, do I have to call it from somewhere, such as cmdlines.txt or WinNT.sif? What would those calls be? ::taking self out of newby mode to understand answers::
  9. Great guide, but if the EU get's there way, then M$ will release a striped down version without the WMP and all the "extras" for at least the EU market, which could also end up being the "Re-loaded" version. Since full details haven't been written in stone, I wouldn't really consider this a definative guide as of yet, but it does sound close to what I have heard as well. Though, I have also heard they will incorporate some of, (if not all of,) the Power Toys in it too. I for one wouldn't mind not having to incorporate Tweak-UI into my slipstream, having it already done for me. Though, I don't know about the rest of you, but the webcam timer-shot really comes in handy...NOT!
  10. No I haven't but I don't have a use for it, thought there may be other here who may though, I have seen others ask for a way to do this in other threads here, which is why I posted this remedy.
  11. I'm still about, I just haven't had a chance yet to get my other system up, been having problems with my back and seizures recently, I should have it ready by tommorow at the latest. Will get back to you then about it.
  12. I thought that there may be a few people here who could use this sort of thing, which is why I posted the link to it.
  13. I didn't really expect it to be a success, but thought if someone wanted to know if they had a DVD player installed on their system correctly or not, this should be able to tell them. I personally don't use it, but there may be some who might need this sort of thing. It can even be used in a program maybe to detect the presence of a dvd player so to know if to download a file or not? Not really sure what it's good for myself, just thought if anyone were to need this sort of thing there is the link for it.

  15. Ahem, what is WPI? What is it supposed to do? Can you explain it further? A screenshot would be nice as well.
  16. Most cell providers in the U.S. though offer it as a free service to customers which use the same cell service. Such as ATT customers can send to ATT customers for free, Sprint to Sprint for free, but ATT to Sprint costs as does Sprint to ATI, but it's only like $.10 a message, then again it's only the sender who usually has to pay, not the reciever as the messages are usually free when incoming. Plus most times you can get a package which allows something like 100-300 messages a month for a set price, usually about $10-25 a month. So sending the message, if your doing so from a computer makes since in the U.S. as it's free to do so that way, only will cost the reciever, if they are actually charged for the messages.
  17. Either that or obtain newer versions of the software in question or find other software which does work correctly. Most of the software I use works just fine in XP SP2 and what doesn't I have already replaced with better/newer software from either the same company or a different one, depending on preference. There are so many other programs which work just fine with SP-2 and even more coming out daily, if not more often, which support it, that incompatibilities are a non-issue. All one has to do is realize it's time to either upgrade their outdated software, or wait to obtain a patch from the manufacturer of the patch, which most likely wont happen, or if it does more than likely will either take forever to come about or cost you anyways. Besides, this gives everyone a chance like when SP-1 came out, to look elsewhere for cheaper/better software, which is what I did when SP-1 come out, and if necessary will do again, though I don't forsee it. Try even looking at the free software which is abundantly available on the internet, you may find an application which does pretty much, if not everything you need for the cost of the service to download it. Sure you may not get documentation, or support, or a book with it, but most of that information is widely available somewhere on the net, all you have to do is search for it. Which is what the majority of people do anyways, because the more up to date information is on the net. Though a lot of times there will be some sort of documentation which will be in downloadble format. Take the case of Office, there is already a version which works, OpenOffice, and it's free! Norton/McAfee aren't really the best virus scanners on the market anyway's so I would reccommend either using AVG which is detected by the Security Center and has a very nice free version available, or Nod32, which is supposed to be one of the best and they too have a free version available. Zone Alarm 5 works with SP-2, though I hear people are having a few problems with it, I can't say as I have though, then again I have a 5 client Pro license of it. Pest Patrol 4 works perfectly with SP-2, as does DVDDecrypter, MusicMatch, iTunes, and WMP which all handle all of my DVD/CD burning tasks. Anyways, my point is if your programs don't work with SP-2 either upgrade them or find newer software which will, you may be happier when you do, especially when there are free programs which will do the same things, albeit somewhat differently.

  20. CopyProfile tool The CopyProfile tool enables an administrator to copy the user profile of one user to another user from the command line. Overview A Microsoft Windows user profile describes the Windows configuration for a specific user, including the environment and preference settings. The user profile also contains configuration options specific to the user, such as installed programs, desktop icons, and color options. This profile is built from Group Policy settings and from permitted, saved changes that a user makes to customize the desktop. Administrators can use the CopyProfile tool to copy a profile from one user to another using a command line and also create default user profiles (see KB article 305709). This tool removes the dependency on the graphical interface and allows the administrator to copy profiles using scripts.

  22. Windows XP Video Decoder Checkup Utility The Windows XP Video Decoder Checkup Utility helps you determine if an MPEG-2 video decoder (also called a DVD decoder) is installed on your Windows XP computer and whether or not the decoder is compatible with Windows Media Player 10 and Windows XP Media Center Edition. Note: This utility only indicates whether an MPEG-2 decoder is compatible with the synchronization feature of Windows Media Player 10 or whether an MPEG-2 decoder is compatible with the recorded TV playback feature of Windows XP Media Center Edition. This utility: • Lists all the MPEG-2 video decoders that appear in your Windows registry (a database that contains information about the hardware and software installed in your computer). • Indicates whether each decoder listed in the registry is marked as compatible with Windows XP Media Center Edition and whether any decoder listed in the registry is marked as the preferred video decoder. • Indicates whether each decoder listed in the registry is marked as compatible with the synchronization feature of Windows Media Player 10. • Lets you designate which installed decoder that you want Windows Media Player 10 to use when synchronizing DVR-MS files to a portable device. This is known as the preferred video decoder. • Lets you undo any changes the utility makes to your Windows registry. System Requirements • Supported Operating Systems: Windows XP (Link at the top of thread)
  23. When adding the drivers to the dosnet.inf you have to include both of these entries for it to work: "GenNvRaidDisk","nvraid" "*_NVRAIDBUS","nvraid" As they are two seperate drivers for the raid to work, if these two entries are left out, then it wont include them when it's trying to install the NVRaid drivers with the NVAtaBus driver. You have to call for them prior to calling for the atabus driver as well or it wont work. You don't have to move the drivers to seperate folders, (I reccommend you don't,) all you have to do is call them in the correct order for it to work. One more thing of note, you need to make sure which motherboard your trying to apply those drivers to, as different manufacturers use different chipsets for the controllers, and I am not sure that the Nvidia drivers are supporting all of them. For instance, my Chaintech 7NJS Zenith uses the Promise chipset for the raid function and has a seperate chipset it's using for the main IDE controller, which doesn't do raid functions. Therefore the NVRaid doesn't load at all on that board, and if it is loaded, it will cause either blue screens or the system not to load at all. HTH. One more thing I need to mention, the included Promise 376 drivers in the download still dont work with the Chaintech motherboard I have, it's a different set of 376 drivers, which can either be obtained from Chaintech (very slow servers,) or from MSI as I posted about prior.
  24. I take it this whole thread has been pretty much abandoned, was hoping to get some help with a msstyle I moded but without actual instructions I am pretty much in the dark about what I am doing wrong. I downloaded Resource Hacker and a theme file I wanted to mod and when I was done with it, the file wouldn't work correctly. I used a backup copy of the theme I was working on, when I saved it, I saved it to a different place, but I copied over the other files which went with it as well to that folder, before I saved it. For some reason some of my graphics wont work correctly and when I attempt to open it up it brings up the style in Desktop Properties, but the names not correct and other information as well is missing. How can I fix these issues? Where can I go to learn more about doing what I am attempting? I don't feel as if I should have to purchase an expensive program to do what I am wanting to do here, which is only mod a few of the graphics in the msstlyes file and go. TIA for any help.
