  1. Wrong forum.... (Multi-Boot CD/DVDs? ) Moved to Software Hangout
  2. I'm on 512/256 with pings of 17-19ms, so its OK. A bit more upstream would be nice though, although we'll get that with SDSL soon! T1 and T3 have identical speeds both ways, and tends to be more reliable. btw, the fastest we have in the UK is 6mbit ADSL, but that's only in central London.
  3. And not forgetting the unattended guides on MSFN are targetted at home power users who at most have 1 to 3 PCs - which makes a CD-based installation more efficient than RIS or network deployment.
  4. Aaron

    SP2 RC2 is out

    File size matches the xpsp2.exe network file that was distributed from various leaked sources (from yesterday) for anybody wondering.
  5. You need to create an environment variable for the DVD drive. This command script works well for detecting your drive, based on what file is on the DVD disc itself: IF EXIST D:\somefile.txt set CDROM=D: IF EXIST E:\somefile.txt set CDROM=E: IF EXIST F:\somefile.txt set CDROM=F: IF EXIST G:\somefile.txt set CDROM=G: IF EXIST H:\somefile.txt set CDROM=H: IF EXIST I:\somefile.txt set CDROM=I: IF EXIST J:\somefile.txt set CDROM=J: "CDROM" can be changed to any variable you want, like "DVDROM" so that it becomes set as %DVDROM% instead (The environment variable only works in the current session. When the command prompt window is closed the %DVDROM% variable is gone).
  6. If its onboard, the driver is usually provided at your motherboard manufacturer's website. Look up your mobo model name on the site and it should provide driver downloads for specific components.
  7. sleep.exe would also be effective as the first RunOnceEx item, 20 seconds should be sufficient.
  8. I've done a bit of testing and its apparent that the DX9 hotfix (DirectX90-KB839643-x86-ENU.EXE) doesn't like to be installed alongside DX9NTopk.exe in svcpack.inf (even when positioned after DX9NTopk.exe). If you have this problem, install the DX9 Hotfix on first logon instead.
  9. You don't need to install DirectX 8 hotfixes if you're going to install 9.0b because it already contains these previous fixes. Install DirectX 9.0b then the new hotfix (released on the 8th) afterwards.
  10. What does this have to do with Site and forum issues?
  11. Unable to resolve target system name xperties.net.
  12. Here's a torrent for anyone having trouble downloading (Requires a BitTorrent client) nLite_0.94_installer.zip nLite_0.94_installer.zip
  13. Only if you're slipstreaming the rollup update 1. I don't use, or endorse this method anymore due to issues that can rise from it according to some members.
  14. 1 new Windows XP Update today: Q840374 - Vulnerability in Help and Support Center Could Allow Remote Code Execution. You may also want to re-download Q837001, as it's been re-released. Here's the latest copy of my svcpack.inf file for anyone interested. You may have noticed I changed Q to KB. This makes no difference, but all patches released lately are in 'KB' but still adheres to the 8 character limit [SetupHotfixesToRun] JS56NEN.exe /Q:A /R:N mdac.cmd KB823182.exe /Q /N /Z /O KB824105.exe /Q /N /Z /O KB824141.exe /Q /N /Z /O KB825119.exe /Q /N /Z /O KB826939.exe /Q /N /Z /O KB828035.exe /Q /N /Z /O KB828741.exe /Q /N /Z /O KB832894.exe /Q:A /R:N KB831167.exe /Q:A /R:N KB835732.exe /Q /N /Z /O KB837001.exe /Q /N /Z /O KB837009.exe /Q:A /R:N KB840374.exe /Q /N /Z /O WMP9MM2.exe KB828026.exe /Q /N /Z /O DX9NTopk.exe
  15. Another reason could be that your ISP placed a recent block on port 80. Try changing to port 81 or 8080 in your conf file, restart Apache and test an outside connection with the port number suffixed to the URL.
  16. Go into the Security Center and look at the left pane, select "Change the way Security Center alerts me" and uncheck all the boxes to disable all notifications. It should stop bothering you from then on.
  17. Link works fine. If its redirecting you, then your virus has edited the HOSTS file. Open %systemroot%\system32\drivers\etc\hosts (Windows XP) in Notepad and see if sophos.com is listed.
  18. Go to Tools > Options > Read, and uncheck Read all messages in plain text. That should sort it P.S. Reading mails in plain text is a good security measure.
  19. Read the forum rules Thread Closed
  20. Possibly wrong switches? The SDK is different from the runtimes
  21. See: RunOnceEx install problem (double installation)
  22. http://www.msfn.org/board/index.php?showtopic=10642
  23. What doesn't work exactly? Did you check the Registry to see if the RunOnceEx entries are there? There's a few members here who use RunOnceEx on Windows 2000 fine
  24. Keep the >> one spacing away from the text, such as hi and 1,4 lol, zoster beats me 2 times in a row
