    How mean are you?

    in General Discussion

    Posted

    Yeah, very ppl are like this. I myself phone them but they only phonr them when they have a problem in their system. However, most of the problems can't be fixed on the phone - I mean you have to see the problem - so I tell them to bring their PC to the workshop, where my dad charges for the technicians' fees LOLz. :D

    Poeple tend to be very dlever, but a businessman has his own presence of mind, heh.

    That's REALLY IRRITATING! :realmad:

    Often they call me and say: "Hello! How are you? My modem doesn't work, what can I do??????"

    or

    "Do I have to buy a new PC to remove spyware??"

    And much sillier things, as well as normal problems which I can't understand, especially with their English accent, reading the error messages :no:

    EarthQuake & tsunamis

    Wow, that was amazing.. (in a bad way)

    An earthquake reaching the number 9. Wow. We are still missing 27 Greek people here who haven't showed a sign of life. I think we should all do something to help those people over there, who, practically or theoritically lost their lives (are dead or with no possesions). :wacko:

    Windows XP boot screen revolution

    in LogonUI & Boot Screens

    Posted

    I'm looking for ideas to add a quick animation (the boot screen is displayed maximum 5 seconds on modern computers).

    Isn't it weird that my Athlon XP 3000+ displays it for 17 solid seconds? :o:P

    Great site btw. That thing with the palettes drives me crazy. NO MORE HEX EDITING PLEASE :P

    //EDIT: How do you compile this? :huh:

    Windows NT 3.51 WS Bootable CD

    in Windows 2000/2003/NT4

    Posted

    Hello everybody,

    I fetched a copy of this ancient piece of OS, and JUST discovered it is NOT BOOTABLE! :realmad:

    This is driving me real mad, as I tested pasting all floppies in I386 and using weird boot sectors from floppies and Win 2000, but NOTHING WORKS!

    Most times I get a page fault :(

    Anybody done this before, or someone with a really good idea?

    PS: this might be considered off-topic as it is an older NT version. hey you, almost deleting or closing this topic, can you remember that the same happens with NT 4?

    New WinPE Windows XP Deployment question(s).

    in Windows PE

    Posted

    Too bad, I was in a great mood when I found out how to start the installation from WinPE. I actually thought that something crashed and the installation window closed. :) But after reading this topic I finally understood there must be no way to avoid the "blue screen of installation" (not "of death" :P).

    Is there really a way to avoid the holy reboot in "doslike" mode and get the installation done in GUI, except of rewriting and redesigning the installation yourself? :P

    Freaking Windows XP First-time wizard

    in Windows XP

    Posted

    Ok, there is no need to threat me, I know the board rules and I intend to follow them.

    I'm talking about the wizard that appears after the installation, on the first boot. The getting started wizard which allows a registration with Microsoft, creation of users and activation (non-corp versions).

    Am I clear now? :huh:

    Good evening

    in Introduce Yourself!

    Posted

    Hello everybody,

    My nickname is Despal and I'm from Greece. I was recently introduced to the idea of the unattended XP CD and I really adored the idea of making my own XP edition with what I want and the way I want it.

    I joined this forum to be a part of the conversation so I can ask questions or even answer some, as well as being informed. :P
