how does Windows size these partitions? In other words, if I use C:\WINDOWS D:\Documents and Settings E:\Program Files Does it allocate the partitions 33/33/33% ? If so I guess one could always resize with some partition manager program.

awxDTools Self-extracting switchless installer. DOWNLOAD: http://rapidshare.de/files/7178668/awxDTools_.exe.html Original Installer/Homepage: http://www.hbreitner.de/awxdtools/ This is a WinRAR SFX that automatically extracts awxdtools.dll and MFC71.dll to your System32 folder.

[EDIT] New Unattended Method for awxDTools by me here: http://www.msfn.org/board/index.php?showtopic=34637

like this? btw I've been meaning to do this unattended also. AwxDTools Daemon-Tools Shell-Extension http://www.hbreitner.de/awxdtools/

awesome! going there right now. [EDIT] The new version is 6kb smaller

http://www.msfn.org/board/index.php?showto...10entry178139 My method to get this to work. I tried to explain this as easy as possible and there is a screenshot. This program in short, removes the install files you dont use. For example Normally Office is a 600mb or so disk image, you only need lets say 300mb of that. This 'captures' the files you used to install office and dumps them in a folder. you can now install office as you just did from the new folder of 300mb with no difference. This is useful if you are trying to put Windows and Office together on one cd.

the people there were supposed to be working on something called exeem, i wonder what will happen to that project?

@sonica start the installilation, it will extract the MSI to Start>Run>%temp% @a06lp here ya go: Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00 ;DaemonTools - Disable Automount [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\d347bus\Cfg] "khjeh"=hex:14,01,00,00,dd,37,55,43,9b,6d,ca,5b,94,8d,91,71,e4,2c,1e,82,07,07,\ f3,82,8e,2d,3d,2b,49,b6,85,9d,45,bc,d5,6b,0e,3e,2f,ff,8d,fd,d0,b5,ec,e6,a1,\ 0a,df,20,e1,d0,86,3e,27,a0,b1,65,ca,38,80,63,c3,1d,23,ad,4e,c4,1a,cf,01,94,\ e5,7a,b8,c0,e4,66,c5,94,77,d5,d9,20,de,23,69,c8,69,d8,17,4e,18,6b,9a,3d,db,\ 03,76,41,d2,4f,15,77,dd,c2,c9,54,fc,ed,4a,6f,ef,7c,33,d9,16,f7,1c,94,c1,4d,\ 9e,d7,90,e9,b1,43,f3,14,f6,19,ea,9e,9a,6c,35,35,d0,35,f4,53,cc,1b,07,7f,45,\ 3f,ae,79,60,31,b9,0d,32,f9,68,c7,d9,31,eb,20,38,03,a2,9c,ff,71,6d,1b,56,5e,\ cc,88,63,86,bf,3c,3f,60,e6,a3,de,4b,11,79,a9,ec,e0,cb,c6,fa,83,a7,e5,db,7a,\ 22,05,da,45,f4,f6,61,c4,6c,68,ce,d7,15,9d,9f,3e,54,b8,20,c9,07,42,14,78,f7,\ 6c,9a,bb,e9,f8,e1,32,26,90,89,bd,07,1b,f8,dc,cf,d2,76,4f,61,c7,ed,76,5c,a3,\ bb,a1,f8,23,b5,f0,09,d7,6e,53,67,c6,61,ca,69,12,6c,95,be,77,c6,d4,91,a9,1e,\ e7,97,53,d6 ;DaemonTools - Hide Icon in Tray HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run\DAEMON Tools-1033: ""C:\Program Files\D-Tools\daemon.exe" -lang 1033 -noicon" [EDIT] Not sure the Hide Icon in Tray is working. I just uncheck Daemon in msconfig now so it doesnt startup with windows, hence no icon. The virtual drivers still load of course and I can still mount images.

I just added to simonsays registering extensions thread something WindowsMediaPlayer fans might like. I posted a Registry Tweak that will associate other file types with WMP, such as Quicktime, Real, APE, FLAC, MPC, and OGG media files. Just FYI in case ya missed it. http://www.msfn.org/board/index.php?showtopic=31407&st=30#

[Moved to new topic] Unattended DirectShow Filters – Get More From WMP http://www.msfn.org/board/index.php?showtopic=34838

ok, but would it be better to use a regtweak Limiting powerdvd OR one adding for wmp?

im actually looking to make it so that PowerDVD only plays just that, DVD's. I prefer to have WMP handle everything else. Is the method for this similiar?

[Moved to new topic] Unattended DirectShow Filters – Get More From WMP http://www.msfn.org/board/index.php?showtopic=34838

dude go buy the OEM cds. example: http://www.google.com/froogle?q=Windows+XP...=Search+Froogle http://store.yahoo.com/directron/xpmedia.html

i heard of a way once, not sure if it was legit, but i heard it was unstable. I'll see if I can dig it up. I think it was done with MCE2004, I believe 2005 would be much harder to do since there is more to it than just one cab file. Can I ask why you'd want to anyway?

Hey SimonSays, I've been trying to figure this out for some time and finally got it: How to COMPLETELY ASSOCIATE audio files with WMP. The current registry entries we've posted, associate FLAC, OGG, etc with WMP10 but make it difficult to cue up more than one song, basically it says to OPEN the file in wmp nothing more. Normally with MP3 and WMA files Windows recognizes them by DEFUALT and has context menu entries such as Play / Add to Now Playing List / Add to Playlist / etc I want the same to be true for flac, ogg, mpc, ape, etc. Heres How: In Windows Explorer or the Control Panel: Open Folder Options > File Types > New For File Extension put in Flac for example. Click Advanced. For Associated File Types select Windows Media Audio File. Click OK to finish, that's it! I will clean up the registry files and test them in vmware so we can do this unattended.

OK Ive got this down. B) 1) RIP Audio CD to WAV files using EAC. 2) IF there are any errors, BRASSO the disk until they go away 3) ENCODE using Flac Frontend. 4) Tag Files with MetaData. 5) Enjoy.

Another Idea I had a while ago, but forgot: A Setup Timeline Picture! Im still confused/ignorant of when nlite goes to work, bashrats driverpacks, hotfixes, and runonceex. I'm sure it would be helpful if we had a graphical representation of this. I know nothing about PHP, but I googled this: http://www.w3schools.com/php/default.asp

not sure if this was definitive, but its a better way to set the drive in runonceex which some people already are using. why not make it the default? cmdow @ /HID @echo off for %%a 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 %%a:\win51ip.SP2 set CDROM=%%a: EXIT

wow, i was soo ignorant but ive seen the light Im going to go add to my Freeware list: EAC and CDEX. No more WMP10 Cd Rips. I only use FLAC or LAME now. im going to try razorlame next, though im very happy. great thread, but the Poll is broken.

sorry if im wrong, i never have seen this before. I guess its technically not because anyone could repackage it. maybe it comes with the GEIL memory i dunno. lol Didnt mean to kill a thread.

[edit]

ngemu seems to be the best emulator related website imo. though there has been steady work on n64 emulators, I think that project64 is still considered the best for speed and compatibility. but you can find out here: http://www.ngemu.com/n64/ [EDIT] OK i went and looked, it looks like the graphics plugins (ie Glide64) for Project64 and other emulators has been improving for a while, otherwise there is a new emu called Mupen64 which is designed as an multi-OS n64 emu. There was a mini-update for Project64 1.5 SP1 in case you missed it ealier as well. http://www.emuxhaven.net/~glide64/ http://mupen64.emulation64.com/what.htm

PerfectDisk v7.0, I liked the O&O v6.5 GUI better but did not like the hidden service it would run consuming memory, if I disable the service it fails to function, and O&O also had issues with the firewall. PerfectDisk has "smart defrag" which defrags accoring to how often certain clusters are accessed, whereas O&O has STEALTH, SPACE, COMPLETE/ Name, COMPLETE/Date, COMPLETE/Access. My guess is COMPLETE/Acess would be equal to smart defrag.

i think you will see alot of fingerprint scanners in 2005/2006 being sold. Microsft said something recently about hoping to eliminate the need for passwords, in fact at microsoft i beleive they all already use some sort of biometric identification for everything. So I believe in Longhorn and near future internet most authorization will be done with biometrics.
