JFYI, it is MANY years that Porsche removed spare tires from the 911 and boxster, 2005 if I recall correctly, replacing it with a "repair kit" . I have never met a 911 or boxster owner actually upset about it. So, sorry to say so , but this time your "meanwhile" has a lesser effect than what was intended/expected. Meanwhile, in Ireland: jaclaz

Very good work RobW . OT , and only "marginally" related, but still *somehow* connected: http://p-nand-q.com/gtools/grootshell.html Still "up to XP only", but maybe it can be tweaked/used/adapted for later NT based OS's. jaclaz

Good. Please answer this question: Is in your view a Seagate Barracuda 7200.12 ST3750528AS a Seagate 7200.11? If you answer NO, you posted on the WRONG thread as this is RESERVED to 7200.11 ONLY. If you answer YES, you should see an optician , as, besides missing the thread title and the difference between 1 and 2 you also missed reading the Read-me-first, where among other consideration is written: and you have anyway posted on the WRONG thread . Please start a NEW thread for issues with the 7200.12 and/or search for posts about the 7200.12 which is NOT the 7200.11. (there are DIFFERENT procedures - mostly UNknown/UNdocumented - for issues with the 7200.12) jaclaz

Which prompts obviously for a random meanwhile picture....: ...but the whole point still being, IF to produce screws hammers are used, and no hammer is produced anymore, once existing hammers will have worn out, it will be not possible to make anymore any screw, and the use of screwdrivers will drop..... Let me disagree, the way someone is dressed has nothing to do with charisma, dressing like that is simply (and IMHO) a form of lack of respect towards the audience and it is in this case in perfect agreement with the actual project presented: NO respect for the users/customers! jaclaz

But it is a different error. It "sounds" like you have not the "right" version of IMDISK installed or that *somwhow* the install fails Can you try to run manually the mountdrive.cmd: and/or the SetupImDisk.CMD: and/or the SetupCDROM.CMD: Set fullname=%~1 imdisk -a -f "%fullname%" -m #: to understand which command actually produces the error message: "The subsystem required to support the image type is not present."? jaclaz

Check this thread: Trace Windows 7 boot/shutdown/hibernate/standby/resume issues jaclaz

But maybe you can find what prevented it (past tense) checking in the event logs? jaclaz

Yep. NOT really, I guess that at the time I once thoght "let's use Loop_Counter" and another time I thought "let's use Loop_Flag". Maybe you could simplify with: ::Check if it is a Registry entry IF "!This_token:~0,2!"=="HK" ( ECHO Registry Entry: !Full_Line! ECHO !Full_Line!>>%Split_dir%\!Section!%Inf_name% GOTO :EOF ) but cannot say if it would be too "wide". jaclaz

Yes, my bad, the suggestion was "generic" about 32/64, Windows 7 64 bit has the ProgramW6432 variable added allright (XP and Vista have it not): http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/aa384274(v=vs.85).aspx Good, let's see what happens. jaclaz

Sure . Here: jaclaz

Exactly , but the tricky part is obviously to miss getting caught in doing it . It's just like flying: jaclaz

A (rhetorical) question being : Here: http://www.askvg.com/get-windows-8-metro-style-start-screen-in-windows-vista-and-7-using-newgen/ http://www.nsapps.net/Apps/Newgen/ http://www.hackinguniversity.in/2012/06/install-windows-8-metro-ui-on-windows.html O tempora, o mores .... jaclaz

If I get it right, the issue is about this thread: which RFComptech started on the 23rd June and to which there were no answers till today, after he "bumped" it. Part of the reasons why noone answered (besides the likely possibility that simply it was not noticed by anyone) might be that there is not enough info to give advice. With reference to this: http://homepage.ntlworld.com./jonathan.deboynepollard/FGA/problem-report-standard-litany.html The: seems to me like completely missing , the "I tried something else" and "I made the unattended disk in Windows 7 and not Windows XP" being IMHO not enough to understand what has been done , whilst the: are there allright. jaclaz

Sure . Sorry I didn't make myself clear enough, I was thinking of somethng like this : http://www.amazon.com/Coby-MP977-8G-Inch-Video-Player/dp/B0047Q4F4U/ref=pd_sxp_grid_pt_0_0 If you thought of Windows Media Player, then you would have been right ! jaclaz

Yep, point being WHICH operation.... http://www.techtalkz.com/microsoft-device-drivers/250757-all-possible-return-values-rundll32-printui-dll-printuient.html http://support.microsoft.com/kb/164787/en-us Mind you, I am clearly out of my field of knowledge here , but : http://blogs.msdn.com/b/oldnewthing/archive/2004/01/15/58973.aspx Maybe http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa768006(v=vs.85).aspx jaclaz

I thought that they had learned by now to just create a .mpg video and simply play it on the tablet during presentations (it's not that difficult to tap on the screen at the right moment ). jaclaz

I have NO idea of what you are talking about , BUT does 0 mean "True" or "False"? http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/ms679279(v=vs.85).aspx jaclaz

A better set of test batches, dosquares.cmd and doHlines.cmd + results of first test. Provided that the nircmdc actually sends what it is supposed to to the mouse buffer (or whatever), it seems that there is in reality a not-so-trifling difference between what should happen and what really happens. It is not a "timing" problem, I did a few more experiments and the timing is almost "right", it may possibly account for max 5% difference, but I have measured around 20% differences AND they are not "linear". Tests have been made with a system using a (I assume 400 dpi) PS/2 Mouse polling at 100 Hz. It is possible that the issues are related to the actual bus, and that a system with a USB mouse behaves differerently, but it would be "queer". To measure length of lines I found this old version of Caliper very handy: http://web.archive.org/web/20010424021827/http://www.iconico.com/caliper/ (thanks to tinyapps.org for the pointer ): http://tinyapps.org/graphics.html jaclaz experiments1.zip

What will be next? How can I add x and y? And z? And then? What do you think a guide is for? Does it contain the info you are asking for? Yes : http://diddy.boot-land.net/grub4dos/files/splash.htm http://diddy.boot-land.net/grub4dos/files/gfxmenu.htm jaclaz

Sure , and if you smooth a little bit the race track , you are nowhere to be seen .... What gives? jaclaz

OT , but not much , and about shooting one's feet, seemingly MS decided to shoot it's parrtner's feet: http://www.telegraph.co.uk/technology/microsoft/9348986/Microsoft-Windows-Phone-8-leaves-Nokia-in-fragments.html Guess WHICH part of Windows 8 will be anyway available to users of the "old" (on average less than one year old) Lumia's? : http://www.phonesreview.co.uk/2012/06/21/windows-phone-7-8-hitting-nokia-lumia-710-and-800-next-week/ jaclaz

How EXACTLY did you build your PE? Like with BartPE, manually, with Winbuilder, UBCD4WIN, and HOW (which settings/plugins/chooices, whatever)? Which is the EXACT source? XP pro source is not enough, which SP? "fairly low" is not a defined quantity of RAM . Is it 128, 256, 512 Mb of RAM or how much exactly? JFYI: PE 1.x <-Source XP or Server 2003 PE 2.x <-Source Vista or Server 2008 PE 3.x <- Sounce Windows 7 or Server 2008 R2 PE 4.x <- Source Windows 8 jaclaz

Has by any chance some magic happened and your USB stick has become a (unattended) Multiboot CD/DVD? You are here: MSFN Forum > Unattended Windows Discussion & Support > Multi-Boot CD/DVDs Probably you wanted to be here: MSFN Forum > Member Contributed Projects > Install Windows from USB http://www.msfn.org/board/forum/157-install-windows-from-usb/ In any case among the file you posted there are two settings files: menu.lst winsetup.lst Leave menu.lst alone for the moment, it simply loads winsetup.lst. Open winsetup.lst in notepad. Save it to winsetup2.lst. Open winsetup.lst again. Save it to winsetup3.lst. Change all occurrences of winsetup.lst in file winsetup2.lst. to winsetup2.lst. Change all occurrences of winsetup.lst in file winsetup3.lst. to winsetup3.lst. Delete from winsetup2.lst the two menu entries related to XP SP3. Delete from winsetup3.lst the two menu entries related to XP SP2. Now open menu.lst and replace: With: It is a simple text based set of menues, you may want to learn something about grub4dos reading here: http://diddy.boot-land.net/grub4dos/Grub4dos.htm The above is simply changing the target of the configfile command: http://diddy.boot-land.net/grub4dos/files/commands.htm#configfile without changing any of the actula "booting related" commands. jaclaz

See if - by any chance - it is connected with settings of the "section": "Lotus Compatibility Settings for:" http://www.pcreview.co.uk/forums/excel-2003-array-formula-excel-2007-a-t3560251.html JFYI, it really seems like Excel 2007 is a bettered Excel 2000, only worse : jaclaz

Yep :, "doing nothing" is an excellent way to keep out of troubles, but actually the "preferred" way (IMNSHO) is: plan accurately a partitioning scheme, in such a way that it is "the most compatible" or "the most suited" for the intended use of the disk partition using the "most compatible" partitioning tool leave partitions/volumes alone: do not move/resize/change active status <- i.e. do nothing after having done "the right thing" if any modification is needed, think a lot about it, then use a suitable tool AND verify it's results carefully, and ONLY attempt the modifications after a complete, full, verified backup (that you should have anyway) jaclaz
