swgreed have U dowloaded and checked sysdm.rar from my previous post??? To describe how it was done is much longer than to make it And now... SYSDM.CPL: How to ... Preamble. 1. New SYSDM.CPL 4.10.2224 English is 1K shorter than 4.10.2222 (of course Your 4.10.2222 is also bigger). 2. All resources are the same (only 2 resources are changed - 1) file version and 2) two signs in string table). That means to get new 4.10.2224 SYSDM.CPL in any language U need only one tool - any quite good HEX Editor. I have used HTEdit http://www.softpedia.com/get/Programming/F...HT-Editor.shtml In addition to be sure "all OK" U may need eXeScope (any 6.XX version of this tool, i'm using 6.41). http://hp.vector.co.jp/authors/VA003525/eXeSc641.zip Also eXeScope can be used for the resources modifying (see steps 7 and 8). And, of course, U need new English SYSDM.CPL 4.10.2224 and the old one 4.10.2222 in your language. Process. 1. Make backup of both SYSDM.CPL (4.10.2224 English and 4.10.2222 in your language). 2. Resize using HEX Editor the English SYSDM.CPL 4.10.2224 to the size of Your old one 4.10.2222. (in the case with German version new size of English file must be 391719 bytes like the old German) 3. Find in English cpl the begining of the resources - offset 00035700 (it begins with code 28 - bitmap resource) fill few kilobytes (5-6K) with zeroes - the best choice for the German version up to the offset 00035E8F, because in old German version (4.10.2222) the begining of the resources is offset 00035E90 (also it begins with code 28, but it is an icon). Of course another language version will have another offset (U have to find it). 4. Open old cpl file (4.10.2222 German), mark and copy all from the offset 00035E90 up to the end of file. 5. Paste it from the program clipboard to the new file from the same offset. Now U have the new resources in Your language in the new English 4.10.2224 cpl file. But this cpl is not working now! 6. The next step - Resource Allocation Table. It begins from the offset 00000100 and the end is at the offset 00000C83. All U need - mark and copy this range from the old 4.10.2222 cpl to the new one. Now Your new file is working! But it is not The End (Look the Preamble ) 7. The next step can be performed in eXeScope (it is more suitable) or in HEX - as U like. At the end of Your new cpl U have to find and correct file version (or Version Resource in eXeScope). 8. The next step (of course eXeScope is more preferably in this case too): U have to open String Resource Number 13 and change string number 205. All U need - to replace signs "%d" with "%lu". The END! Also U can change the dates of file creation and modification. All of these steps - no more than 5 minutes!
