  1. Do you mean the Application Compatibility Toolkit? There is a feature that allows Windows to falsely report that XP is installed.
  2. Use nLite.
  3. It's nice, except it uploads way more than it downloads...
  4. Visual Studio .NET Special Edition: http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details...&DisplayLang=en
  5. Try nLite .
  6. You might have missed the line: "I just want the icon support for 32-bit icons and transparency" . I want XP icon SUPPORT. If you have ever tried it yourself, using XP icons on Windows 2000 results in ugly solid-black drop shadows...
  7. I need a free piece of software that can hopefully recover a deleted partition that I overwrote with a new partition of the same size...
  8. There was a XP Live CD, but I can't find the link anymore . It had something to do with XP-E...
  9. Windows ME is the only version of Windows that was a downgrade of the previous version .
  10. I don't really want the XP icons, I just want the icon support for 32-bit icons and transparency. Anyone know what to patch in shell32.dll? I'm quite sure that's where the information is located. Maybe if someone has an early Whistler version of the file and the version the Whistler Beta DLL was based off of, someone can reverse engineer both and compare...
  11. Maybe you should try integrating IE from XP SP2 into Windows 2000.
  12. This article explains a lot to those Mac enthusiasts out there that claim Windows stole ideas from OS X. The designers not only did the icons, but also many elements of the appearance of Vista. Apple's inspirational, innovation-focused corporate culture trains innovators that then move to transform other firms fortunes, argues Business Week. Apple's design achievements have: "Shifted our conceptions of how a computer should look and feel, and changed the way we interact with technology," the report explains. Though some products fail, as did the ill-fated Cube, Apple's role is as an "incubator of the best designers and engineers that will have the biggest long-term impact," the report explains. Apple-trained people take the culture with them, it explains. It's a design-led company that approaches every task with lofty goals. Products are designed first, and realised second. Once a design is worked out it goes to Apple CEO Steve Jobs for approval, after which the engineering team try to build the product. Business Week has published a slide show to illustrate the kind of influence former Apple designers and engineers have on other companies - including the design of Microsoft's Windows Vista OS. Robert Brunner led the design team for the Apple PowerBook 100 in 1991. Today, Brunner is engaged in the design of the graphics and images in Microsoft's new operating system.[/color]
  13. Shell32.dll is a pain in the @$$. I wish MS would make something for it like for Winlogon. But you could try using a previous version of Windows (2000?) and use the shell32.dll file from that. I'm not sure if it works or not, but it's worth a try .

    Which Update?

    Read topic description. The QFE version has a version number of (srv03_sp1_qfe.050629-1552) and the GDR version has a version number of (srv03_sp1_gdr.050629-1534). Both are of the same build and date.
  15. Any way to do this through the run dialog?
  16. You need to install an alternative media player.
  17. I'm assuming you're hoping it's a volume license so you can take the school's key and use it on your own computer?
  18. That wouldn't make sense since the FPU is part of the CPU. BTW how do people find out what registry tweaks do in the first place?
  19. Anyone have any idea what these undocumented registry keys are for?
  20. What problem are you having in the first place?
  21. Just a question, exactly what's delaying the release of this?
  22. It's still Windows if you're just using a different shell.
  23. Hmm...your MicroWinX install can lose some more fat using a command shell .
  24. I think you'll find my link useful : http://www.msfn.org/board/index.php?act=ST...t=0#entry383765
  25. For those of you who prefer using a command-line shell, here are some helpful cmdlets . eval.bat %1: Evaluates an equation (%1) schedule.bat %1: Text reminder at specified time (%1=xx:xx:xx.xx) time.bat: Reports the time and date More to come soon!
