Very interesting ! Thanks for this "tips" :-) A little question: This should be done before using waik or it doesn't matter ?

Hi ! I have almost the same question, but i don't use vlite at all. I used Waik and created my xml file (and validated it). I would like to bypass the OS "choice", only choice visible is "Home Premium". What is the good code for this (home premium) without using vlite ? It is the same that Sperion... except ultimate > Home premium. Thanks in advanced ! (sorry for my bad english lol) EDIT: I find it ! Works fine tested into a virtual machine

This script is amazing ! Wonderful job Tomcat76

I suppose Upnp is a part of sysoc.inf. I use this batch and file for installing/uninstalling some components: 2 files - component.txt - component.cmd component.txt Off: uninstall On: install Upnp in red Beware ! It works for me however I'm not shure at all ! Anyone know the name of Upnp component in sysoc ? I'm not shure exactly (beacon or upnp or both or anything else ?) component.cmd SET load=%systemdrive%\install sysocmgr /i:%windir%/inf/sysoc.inf /u:%load%\component.txt I put these 2 file on mu UACD in OEM dir: $OEM$\$1\Install\component.txt $OEM$\$1\Install\component.cmd So this 2 files will be automatically send to %systemdrive%\install during xp install. Runonceex.cmd simply add something like this: REG ADD %KEY%\010 /VE /D "Suppressing/Adding Windows Components" /f REG ADD %KEY%\010 /V 1 /D "%systemdrive%\Install\component.cmd" /f It'll execute component.cmd during first logon as usual, blabla... We should just find the name of Upnp components, and it's fine ^^ Supposly: "Beacon = On" "Upnp = On" In registry I can see that both of this 2 entries is activated (blabla_key=1) HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Setup\Oc Manager\Subcomponents beacon: 1 upnp: 1 So I Suppose both of them should be executed by sysocmgr for installing Upnp components ! But I'm not shure at all, but it works for me lol

Yep! This is really frustrating... I don't want these shortcut too Using the same CD, installed on VmWare: no shortcut ! Real installation: with shortcut... I've tried to track the registry with reg capture software like "VeriTest-Rational Install Analyzer" but i don't find any reg key... I've search on MS website for hotfix, and i've find nothing, I send email to nvidia and MS, no answer Nobody seems to have a solution for this ?

Unfortunatly, I've never found a key "linked" to that shortcut There's a few thread on the web (google is our friend no ?) talking about this shortcut problem. It seems to be "link" to removable media (hd usb, usb key...) fonction wich appears with SP2. I mean Windows "believe" Sata HD, or IDE HD (or Raid...) is a removable media (hd usb, usb key...) and of course these are not removable media One more time, a really nice bug from M$ I sent email a few month to nvidia and ms supprt, never had an answer lol

Hi ! I had the same probleme with non-raid HD (nvidia NF570 chip on asus m2n-e mobo) ! And I had this problem too, in the past with my previous computer (nvidia NF4 ultra chip on gigabyte k8nf9-ultra) The strange part is that when I test my XPCD into a virtual machine (vmware 5.5), I don't have these shortcut in Send to menu ! Using the same CD and doing a clean install for true, I had these shortcut in Send to menu.... The difference is obviously the drivers wich is completly different between virtual machine, and real install. Seems (for me) to be a "bug" with some sata/ide or raid drivers and XP ! Screen in XP: Screen in VM: If anyone has a idea about this *problem* please don't hesitate to give a solution (sorry for my strange english, that's not my natural language )

Found a typo here: should be : I've not tested all tweak, only thus who interested me....

I use this code in a batch file during "ROE" installation: And of course it works

You must have a "legit/legal" license installed on your computer to download these non critical update I mean "WGA check". Wga is this update : kb905474, but if you don't own a legit copy of windows an advice: don't install it (905474) lol

I had this probleme too in the apst, and i never find what was the source of this problem ! I think (not sure) this is due to hotfix (wich one i don't know) maybe a IE or OE hotfix break another one, or something like this. Anyway i had a solution put this into a cmd file (or bat) and execute it during runoncegui. little explanation if you delete hkcu/Identities, and then rerun OE => you recreate the subkeys under Identities (wich is your pb!). This subkeys is your identities (let's your profile) into OE. Using this cmd file, delete and then recreate a subkeys, problem is corrected ^^ Other keys like: REG ADD "HKCU\Identities\%default_identity%.................. is usefull for setting OE you can use this or not, this indepedant from the "identities" problem (reg delete...) So now you know what to do/execute ^^ ps: poor english isn'it it, perhaps my taillor is not so rich :-)

Thanks a lot Now I can shrink Nero 6 to fit it, my UACD will be happy ^^

Download link doesn't work (16 may 2006) http://msfn.cppm.org/NCAB-211.exe and domain "msfn.cppm.org" seems also to be dead Is there any mirror "up" ?

up ^^ no reply (arghh lol) so this bring me a question: did i'm the only one to have this issue or... not ? Or maybe my post is not clearly explained ? Any advice or solution is welcome

Hi ^^ A little thing i've don't understand at all In my UACD I haven't used any regtweak for tweaking sendto menu. I only use two command in a cmdfile (during runonceex) with this: regsvr32 /s /u "zipfldr.dll" regsvr32 /s /u "sendmail.dll" I don't use the "usual" copy to / move to regtweak or anything "similar" (meaning sendto regtweak) in my "regtweak.reg" (in fact i called this file optireg.reg) or any file tweak (Sendto\Desktop.ini is untouched). My problem is: in my context "sendto" menu (all user or any userprofile...) is showned all my hard disk partition letters (C;D;E;F) ; see screencap below. I would like to know how to "suppress" this partition letters from sendto menu ? -> Documents and Settings\%User%\SendTo, contains this entry: Bureau (créer un raccourci) desktop.ini Notepad 2 (same for default user\sendto) -> start menu > Run: sendto Bureau (créer un raccourci) desktop.ini Notepad 2 -> %User%\SendTo\Desktop.ini, contains this entry: [LocalizedFileNames] Destinataire.MAPIMail=@sendmail.dll,-4 Bureau (créer un raccourci).DeskLink=@sendmail.dll,-21 Dossier compressé.ZFSendToTarget=@zipfldr.dll,-10148 (same for default user\sendto) I put my optireg.reg in attachment (let's say my regtweak.reg). Maybe i've made a typo or any mistake ??? I've searching a lot in msfn forum, and other board, and of course google, i've find nothing on this problem..... Any idea ? Please help ^^ ps: Had amd64 and nf4 ultra mobo, maybe a issue with nvidia sata/ide drivers ? I mean i've read in a kb article ( forget the numbers ;( ) that sendto can show "dynamic storage device" like usb key automatically ; i suppose (hope i'm wrong) that nvidia drivers give xp bad info with ide/sata, and then "sendto" shown all partition hdd sata ? OptiReg.reg.txt

to RyanVM: Aaaah ok, so now we are sure: no need to use anymore KB912945 :-) ps: we all made typo time to time...... to cluberti: Hope so ^^

But shouldn' it be KB912812 (IE cumulative) who replaced KB912945 (active x Eolas...) ???I mean this "java crash" is due to KB912945 and not KB912415, no ? Excuse my mistake if I'm wrong ^^

Indeed For sure, it would be better if activex could be "killed" in IE7 and co, and be repalced by "usual" plugin system (with limited right, etc...). That's why I prefer FF to IE (at this moment ^^). Hmmm, should i says ... yes !? I have deinstalled KB912945 and then installing all new hotfix from today, after a litlle reboot i've made the same test (www.norsk-tipping.no & Mine spill). And guess what ? It works, at least for me, but I haven't compare files between KB912945 and KB912812, so I can't tell if this new hotfix replaced KB912945 for activex management ? Anyway no crash with this new hotfix.....

Same for me with KB912945 installed, page is launched, ... certificate, and then IE crashed and close all opened window and create logfile on the desktop. I've tried without kb912945 and no problem occurs (with IE). So this problem is due to kb912945. KB912945 seems to be a real buggy update from MS

Hi Why still using the original installer exe ? I prefer using the msi extracted by the installer, here's my switch: If you don't want mozilla (firefox) plugin, delete it from commandline.

[mode troll=on] LOL An advice (not really serious) ^^ 1. Buy a T-Shirt with "If you're a girl and panic with computing: I'm you're solution" 2. Buy a bottle of Champagne and create an association for "girl looking for fine lesson in computing" 3. Put the bottle (and candle and so on...) on a nice table near the computer. Now you can say carefully to the girl, sorry computer has crashed, but... We still have Champagne and candle ^^ Isnt' it a beautiful solution ? [mode troll=off] Seriously (can it be ?) Here's my script for msn 7.5, if anyone had headache with this in the past (me ? no, no, no: never ^^), now we have what we were looking for. settings usefull is: DisableMSNToday DisableTabs FirstTimeUser Yzöwl: Should i says thanks again ? Definitevely: yeeesss PS: You find this script useful ? So... Feel free to send Champagne to Yzöwl, now he know what to do with this french liquid ^^

Yeess !!! This is exactly what i was trying to do I've made a quick test with this: And "toto" is add at the right place in my case: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\MSNMessenger\PerPassportSettings\2239632blabla So it works, and works well :-) Now we can add regtweak for msn messenger "fully unattended" ! What to says ? Uhhh maybe.... big big thanks Yzöwl you rocks ^__^

Hi ^^ I've tried to make a batch (cmd file) for: - finding the automatically the value of "PerPassportSettings" from the registry - settings this "PerPassportSettings" into my batch with query command (or other command of course ^^). Unafortunatly my skill in batch programming is limited, so I need a little bit of help Into registry: PerPassportSettings is here: HKCU\Software\Microsoft\MSNMessenger\PerPassportSettings\here the number to find Note: here the number to find is the value of "PerPassportSettings" I would like to retrieve this key into my batch for settings msn automatically. Something like this sample i've done (but this don't work). In RED i've marked what I think is wrong (probably all this script is wrong lol). -> This script is execute during runonceex.cmd just after msn 7.5 installation... Yzöwl or other master of art in batch coding... Pleeeaase help O_O

Hi ! I've quickly made a ico file for 7zip, (16x to 48x). Everyone can use it or modify it, blabla... Of course you need to associate this ico file with extension used by 7zip (7z, zip, rar, arj....) Hope this can be useful ^^ 7zip.ico

Hi This is how I bypass this problem, I've made à command file (batch) who: - delete in registry "hkcu/Identities" - start OExpress (for recreating automatically hkcu/identities/...) - killing the task automatically msimn.exe (OE processus) - and applying my regtweak for OE. and that's it... Here's the batch: outlook.cmd (name it whatever you want) NOTE: - sleep = sleep.exe (sleep for 'n' second; into the batch) (root\$OEM$\$$\System32\sleep.exe) - cmdow.exe for hiding the prompt command window. (root\$OEM$\$$\System32\cmdow.exe) I'm applying this batch during ROE (RunOnceEx) stage, but you can execute it with cmdlines.txt for example at T-12 (or whaterever you like). Good luck sleep.zip
