So is it possible to put Windows Movie Maker on Windows 2000? The only thing I have tried was to put the files on Windows 2000 and run them, but it gave me an error about SHParseDisplayName in shell32.dll so I copied the XP shell32.dll over and it totally ruined the boot so I had to put the original back, lol. I have no ideas after that, unless someone could get the pertinent information with a hex editor from the XP dll and just copy that into the 2k dll.

This is really good, thanks. I would just like to say that if you are concerned with privacy you should delete the bookmarkbackups folder, bookmarks.bak, bookmarks.htm, and cookies.txt in the Mozilla\Firefox folder before step number 7. You should copy the entire folder somewhere else before you do this or your bookmarks and cookies will be deleted.

I just wanted to reply back and say thanks allen2. It worked.

This is what I have tried so far... I have copied the seclogon.dll from another machine into the System32 directory. Then I used the sc.exe tool from the Windows 2000 Resource Kit to try and create the service. I named the service seclogon and pointed the binPath to the services.exe, but it failed when I tried to start it. Anyone have any ideas?

From the lack of responses I take it that it is impossible?

I didn't install the RunAs service and now I need it. I removed it with nLite. Is there anyway to reinstall a service? Please refrain from telling me how dumb I was, .

I just started following this and I was wondering this too. Data Access Components for Microsoft® Windows® 2000 (Data Access + XML + JET + more + fixes) Internet Components for Microsoft® Windows® 2000 (IE6SP1 + WAB6 + OE6SP1 + Script Engines + fixes) DirectX® Components for Microsoft® Windows® 2000 (DirectX 9.0C) Where is the best place to install those files listed on your site? I understand that we are still unable to integrate them. Are we supposed to just run them after the install with runonce? What switches do those files accept?

I hate XP, nothing but a bloated piece of crap. Windows 2000 isn't boring and it doesn't lack necassary features. The features it lacks are unimportant resource hogs that make me avoid XP. Give me 5 reasons why I should switch from XP? My 2000 machine is rock solid. It stays up as long as *nix boxes. I will go with the more efficient Windows 2000 until the lack of support makes it insecure.

Ok, thanks.

http://www.embeddingwindows.com/8mb_windows98.html How is that done? I would like to run Windows 98 on my usb drive. Anyone here know how it is done? They also have XPLite and 2000Lite software like nLite, looks good.

It is not "easy" to bypass properly configured firewalls.

I just install it after. If I had a DVD burner I would probally do it though. Would be nice to have VB.NET install with the MSDN Library.

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon] "AutoAdminLogon"="1" "DefaultUserName"="*" "DefaultPassword"="**" "ForceAutoLogon"="1" * = username to autologin ** = password of user

Always get fast replies. Thanks.

Does anyone know why the custom bootscreens cause this ntfs.sys error? Would like a fix for this as having to load up a program like stylexp to change the bootscreen isn't something I want to do after installation. If there is a fix for it or a hacked file please point me to it. I have already searched the forums.

Have you tried replacing it like microsoft suggests?

I am having a problem using this method with SP2 RC2. Everything installs and boots into Windows fine. Then I restart and I get an error saying ntfs.sys is corrupt or missing. I tried the fix that microsoft suggests and it still didn't work. Eventually I found out that it was a problem with the boot.ini. I left these commands out of my next attempt: bootcfg /RAW /A /Kernel=OEMKrnl.exe /ID 1 bootcfg /Timeout 0 and restarted without a problem. Now I don't have a custom boot screen though.

I got it to work. Did a little searching and stumbled apon this. http://translate.google.com/translate?hl=e...3D%26ie%3DUTF-8 Turns out some windows 2000 machines might have problems slipstreaming sp2. Like this guy I tried the same thing on an XP machine and it worked perfectly. Thanks for all your input.

Alanoll: That is what I am doing with "C:\sp2\XPSP2.exe -s:c:\xpcd\" prathapml: It is not a 64bit pc. I couldn't find a different version of sp2 either. If there is a different 64bit version that could be the problem. Don't think there is one though.

* I'm having double post problems. Satellite lags bad.

That is what "C:\sp2\XPSP2.exe -s:c:\xpcd\" is doing. It is the same thing.

I get this error while trying to slipstream SP2 using C:\sp2\XPSP2.exe -s:c:\xpcd\ "The procedure entry point _wcstoui64 could not be located in the dll msvcrt.dll" Any help is appreciated.
