I tried it. It doesn't work if you used nLite on the installation.

I love how monohouse just took it upon himself to hijack this thread.

Link21 makes a dumb argument.

DirectX is a graphics engine for Windows. Updating it provides more graphical functionality and includes fixes from previous versions. If you have no games that require a new version of DirectX then updating is pointless.

Yeah that figures, fatality is winning because he has a desktop picture of a woman (at least, I HOPE it's a woman) touching herself.

Thanks

I made myself clear last time but obviously you don't want to hear it. Trying to circumvent the security that is rightfully placed on his network is stupid and will get him into trouble. I don't care how good you think you are with computers, his network admins are better.

To attempt to circumvent the campus network would probably be futile. If you were to somehow find a way, all you would succeed in doing is getting him into trouble as the campus policy no doubt forbids P2P.

What? You were expecting them to troubleshoot your Windows problems on a anti-MS forum?

Old, but funny.

Has anyone else noticed that some people are getting into the habbit of wishing an enemy well? I'll give an example: Two people are disputing over the ownership of a couch. Every time they meet they argue about it. At the end of some of their fights one person will make a statement like "I hope you have a great holiday" or "I wish you well and the best of luck" or "I pray you do well at your job" and the other will respond in kind. It's kinda odd how people are suddenly adapting to that trend. Does anyone else smell the bulls***? Has anyone been in a situation like that?

I'm not saying the placement is wrong, but most people who are here know and work with microsoft products. Anyway the best suggestion I can give is try to find where the firewall stores its configuration settings and delete them so you start out as if you never configured it.

This is a microsoft based forum and you are asking help on a linux firewall. You would probably be better aided in a linux forum.

That was explained perfectly. Is there anything that will flush the buffer without creating a newline like endl does?

Here is what I did: 1) Downloaded wmfdist.exe and wmp6cdcs.exe 2) removed WMP with nLite 3) (might not be needed anymore) took the wmploc.dll file from winxp sp1 and copied it with this command Copy %systemdrive%\install\wmploc.dll %windir%\System32 This prevents an error with the codec installation...I forget what that error is exactly. 4) had the batch file install unattended with this code ECHO. ECHO Installing WMP runtimes. start /wait %systemdrive%\install\wmfdist.exe /Q ECHO. ECHO Installing WMP codecs. start /wait %systemdrive%\install\wmp6cdcs.exe /C:"SETUP_WM.EXE /Q:U /R:N" /Q:U /R:N 5)(optional)Removed DRM related files with these commands del "%windir%\system32\drmclien.dll" del "%windir%\system32\drmstor.dll" del "%windir%\system32\drmv2clt.dll" del "%windir%\system32\blackbox.dll" del "%windir%\system32\asfsipc.dll" del "%windir%\system32\msnetobj.dll" del "%windir%\inf\drm.inf" del "%windir%\inf\drm.PNF" rd /S /Q "%ALLUSERSPROFILE%\DRM"

Correct me if I'm wrong but cout << "Please insert Folder path" << endl; can just as well be cout << "Please insert Folder path\n";

I did it for you for kicks. I think looking through how I did it might benefit you in ways other than increasing your grade. (When it comes to programming, people have the tendency to copy and paste.) import java.util.Random; public class rolldice{ public static int rollnumber; public static int ROLL_LIMIT = 36000; public static int[] die1= new int[ROLL_LIMIT]; public static int[] die2= new int[ROLL_LIMIT]; /*This function keeps track of how many rolls *have occured and returns false if it reaches *ROLL_LIMIT*/ public static boolean rolltrack(){ ++rollnumber; if(rollnumber == ROLL_LIMIT) return false; else return true; } /*Generates a random number for each array *of die numbers. The numbers that are generated *aren't very random, probably due to the high speed *at which the function is continuously called. */ public static void rollthedice(){ Random rand = new Random(); die1[rollnumber] = rand.nextInt(6)+1; die2[rollnumber] = rand.nextInt(6)+1; } /*This function calculates the statistic of how much *each number was rolled for each die, then outputs *the data as text*/ public static void tell_roll_statistics(){ int[] number_rolls1=new int[6]; int[] number_rolls2=new int[6]; double[] number_percent1=new double[6]; double[] number_percent2=new double[6]; for(int j=0;j<6;j++){ for(int k=0;k<ROLL_LIMIT;k++){ if(die1[k] == (j+1)) ++number_rolls1[j];//Holds the amount of rolls for each number if(die2[k] == (j+1)) //in the array number_rolls_percent1 and 2 ++number_rolls2[j]; } number_percent1[j] = ((double)number_rolls1[j]/ROLL_LIMIT)*100; number_percent2[j] = ((double)number_rolls2[j]/ROLL_LIMIT)*100; System.out.println("[Die1] % of number "+(j+1)+": "+number_percent1[j]); System.out.println("[Die2] % of number "+(j+1)+": "+number_percent2[j]); } } public static void main(String args[]){ rollnumber = 0; do{ rollthedice(); }while(rolltrack()); tell_roll_statistics(); } }

I recommend the case and drive separately. Upgrading becomes easier if you want.

That's just...dumb.

They still didn't get it to look right in the beta version of windows. Mac is better.

Nope that isn't it. The class name "tesn" matches the name of the file "tesn.java". It's an odd name, but as long as it matches it should work. Edit: I figured it out. The void isn't suppost to be where the arguments are. I hate it when I confuse languages.

I must be losing it. Every time I try to compile this simple program it is giving me a "illegal start of type" error. import java.util.Random; public class tesn{ public void hi(void){ System.out.println("DoSTuff"); } public static void main(String args[]){ hi(); } } The filename is called tesn.java. I have no idea why this does not work.

First off you guys are just being dumb. Secondly, Microsuck (formerly f***microsoft.com) has been around for quite a while. The site contains a good amount of junk and unfair bias against Microsoft, but they do have some good points. Microsoft has been known for their dirty business practices, unwanted bundling of software (I'm so glad Nuni wrote nLite) and general distrust after the nature of the hidding index.dat records were discovered.

Using the winnt.sif file to automatically enter information such as time zone, etc. is a good idea. I think the reason why the product key in the registry is not the same is because when the product key on the side of the case is activated, a new product key is assigned to the computer. I think your best bet is making a script that backs up the WPA.DBL file.

I have to use Realplayer alternative along with VLC. The makers of VLC aren't allowed to include the codec in their player because Real wants people to use their crappy player to view .rm movies.
