I just uninstalled C# and C++ 2005. In my opinion they are the biggest wastes of memory out there. As far as C# is concerned the IDE was running as two processes one taking up 80MB+ of ram and the other taking up 20MB+ of ram. I opened the same project in VS.Net 2002 and noticed the IDE took up between 20 and 40MB of ram. I liked some of the new features such as refactoring but the IDE is not worth the footprint that it takes.
Don't get me wrong I'm not an MS basher, I'm sure when they go gold the IDE's will be better optimized and run smoother but the beta's are just that. Beta's.

Hi biocyberman, I have my favourites in my $OEM$\$1\Drivers directory. I still have to import them when I open IE but that's how I do it but you could create a favourites directory on your CD
example
$OEM$\$1\Favorites
and then put a batch file to copy them over
copyfavorites.bat
cd %systemdrive%\Favorites
xcopy32 *.* "%systemdrive%\Documents and Settings\"YourUserName"\Favorites"All you would have to do is call the batch file from your runonceex and it's all good. The example assumes you are creating your user account during setup not at the end like a normal windows installation
Hope this helps. Good luck

Here is the microsoft proscribed way to do it
This is my redirect.reg file
[Version]
Signature=$CHICAGO$
[DefaultInstall]
AddReg=Reg.Settings
[Reg.Settings] HKCU,Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\User Shell Folders,Personal,0x20000,"%PERSONAL%"
HKCU,Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\User Shell Folders,My Pictures,0x20000,"%PICTURES%"
[Strings]
PERSONAL = "\\DC1\Shared\%USERNAME%\My Documents"
PICTURES = "\\DC1\Shared\%USERNAME%\My Documents\My Pictures"This method can be used for multiple users as well.

also you shouldn't have cmdow @ /HID in your batch file unless you have the cmdow file in your $OEM$\$$\System32 folder. I don't know if you read that part of the tutorial.

@aland, this guy practically spells out how to install the drivers in your unattended CD.

The only folder that you need is the i386 folder, you can get rid of all the others. The only thing that I've ever used in the valueadd foler is netBEUI.

When you install windows you are doing it unattended right. If so the way to skip that silly musical sequence with the talking questionmark is to put the following text into your winnt.sif answer file
[GuiUnattended]
OemSkipWelcome = 1
Good luck

It's part of the Windows audio subsystem, I would not advise deleting it. I would right click on the file and compare versions between your corp cd and your dell cd just incase for whatever reason it's a dell custom version rather than the one that ms shipped.

Unless your a software pirate, Windows XP is the answer.
At a local computer warehouse Microsoft OS's are priced as follows
2003 Server Web Edition $520
2003 SBS Edition $750
2003 Standard Edition $890
XP Home $115
XP Pro $185
With the cheapest version of server being over 4 times the price of XP home and allmost 3 times the price of XP Pro, no sensable person is going to setup a 2003 box unless they have a need for a domain and Full fledged web server and other non client features.

because it's referenced twice. once on the 3rd line and once on the 6th line

I've now done 2 clean installs from cd and the only software that I've installed are the applications that ati requires on there website and the following
1st install -> Windows XP sp1a, intel chipset inf's 5.0.2.1003, DirectX 9.0b, Windows Media Encoder 9
2nd install -> Windows XP sp2 which includes DirectX 9.0c and updated inf's. Windows Media Encoder 9
Both times the MMC will not install, these were both clean systems that were installed from non modified cd except for the slipstreaming for the sp2 disk.
I'm stuck, any ATI wizards out there.

I thought it might be a silent install problem so I did a fresh install from my unattended source but didn't install the MMC. I then installed it at the end normally without any command line switches. It still failed So who knows.

Hey all, I just downloaded the new Multimedia Center posted on ATI's website today. During the install it just stops doing anything.
The "ATI Multimedia Center - Installshield Wizard" button sit's minimized in the taskbar. There is also the process IDriver.exe which is at 50% cpu. Is anyone else having this problem. Any ideas

Hey roger04 what file version is your ntoskrnl have you comared it with the version on the CD

Bashrat here's the clarification. If you have a USB printer connected and you go to device manager and click on the "Universal Serial Bus" section you will see a device called "USB Printing Support". Windows installs this out of necessity, even if you have a driver for your hardware.
As for your MFD's Radimus, do they have some sort of auto-off if there not used because from experiance my PC installs USB Printing Support and auto-detects the existance of my printer on login. So it would be just a matter of silently installing the driver and that's it.

I have resolved the problem if anyone is interested. It turns out that modern computers are so fast that the six .roll() functions were happening almost instantly so the random seed wasn't changing. I added a several millisecond delay between each .roll and now it generates a unique number each time.

I had the same problem with my 2003 box. I wonder if it's a hardware specific problem. My box is an Intel P3-450 on an Intel SE440BX-2 Mainboard and the burner is an LG 52x32x52. Is any of this hardware similar to yours
Also when my 2003 trial ended, I brought the same box back online as a 2000 Server and can burn cd's with no problems.

The second code block wasn't formatted that poorly when I hit the post button. I guess there were hidden characters from my cut-n-paste

Hi all, here's my first post in the programming section hope you can all help me with a problem. I've written a function to simulate the rolling of dice, but when I run it it's not very random here is the code
from CharGen.cs
private void button2_Click(object sender, System.EventArgs e)
{
Die die2 = new Die();
switch (comboBox1.Text)
{
case "Human":
textBox1.Text = die2.Roll(3,6).ToString();
textBox2.Text = die2.Roll(3,6).ToString();
textBox3.Text = die2.Roll(3,6).ToString();
textBox4.Text = die2.Roll(3,6).ToString();
textBox5.Text = die2.Roll(3,6).ToString();
textBox6.Text = die2.Roll(3,6).ToString();
break;
}
}and here is the code from Die.cs
using System;
namespace CharGen
{
/// <summary>
/// Simulates the rolling of a die, generating a random value.
/// </summary>
public class Die
{
public Die()
{
}
public int Roll(int numOfDice, int typeOfDie)
{
Random rand = new Random();
int dieTotalValue = 0;
for (int i = 1; i <= numOfDice; i++)
{
dieTotalValue += rand.Next(1, typeOfDie);
}
return dieTotalValue;
}
public int Roll(int typeOfDie)
{
Random rand = new Random();
return rand.Next(1, typeOfDie);
}
}
}When I press "Button 2" all 6 textboxes will populate with the same number, if I press the button again then all six boxes will populate with the same number again but it's a different number than the first time. I'm looking for something more random but I guess I'm too tired to see the problem

I read that article a while ago word for word. It's not fact it's just a joke. Except the poster failed to post that part of the article from the original.

As far as I know, the only order they get looked at is in the order they are specified in your OemPnPDriversPath, and that's not precise either. Windows will look for drivers as it sees fit, based on hardware ID I would think

To slim the install down I would just delete the directories in NSW2005 that you aren't going to install. So if you delete all the directories except for NSW and NU, when you run the installer it will detect that the programs aren't there and not install them. You don't need to install NAV from systemworks as it's in NIS2005. Hope that helps
