@Nois3 I've read about hiding files in a CDFS. I thought I had found it in flyakite's guide to creating a multiboot disc, but I've searched throughout all of his pages and I can't find anything on it. I really wish I could remember. It was pretty interesting. I never got a chance to test it, however. Come to think of it, I'm nearly positive I read about it on one of the following sites: UBCD, Bart's PE, or CDShell. You can google them if you're interested. Or I'll do it tomorrow. I must be headin' to bed right now. Thanks for the info on your batch file. I think I'll go ahead and use it. edit: Heh, I didn't realize that this thread was on page 3 already. edit2: If UltraISO hides ALL files, then I'm guessing that it just makes the ISO UDF. That can be read from within Windows if the user has Roxio Easy CD Creator. The method that I saw allowed you to choose particular files to hide.

After looking at the tweaks that you apply, however, I'm guessing that you removed Microsoft HTML Application Host (mshta.exe) and it's opening with Notepad because of your "Open with Notepad" tweak. However, you can still try the following: Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00 [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\.hta] @="htafile" "Content Type"="application/hta" [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\htafile] @="HTML Application" "EditFlags"=dword:00000000 [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\htafile\DefaultIcon] @="C:\\Windows\\system32\\mshta.exe,1" [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\htafile\Shell] [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\htafile\Shell\Open] [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\htafile\Shell\Open\Command] @="C:\\Windows\\system32\\mshta.exe \"%1\" %*" Make that into a .reg file and have it applied before the .hta runs. In fact, I would add it to WPI.cmd (using "regedit /s htafile.reg", just above the line that says "start /wait WPI.hta" Or even better, you can edit your WPI.reg file (located in \WPI\Common\) and add the aforementioned code to it (sans "Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00").

Excuse me, your Nero serial is showing.

Let's see your tweaks.reg file (or something similar). I'm guessing you have a tweak that associates .hta files with Notepad. Rather, I know that you've somehow gone off and done that.

@Nois3 Please forgive me for being confused. I would definitely like to use your script, but I need to know some stuff. 1. When does one run this batch? Should it be on the physical CD itself, and run during Windows setup? If so, doesn't that mean that someone can just look in the batch file to get the CD key? Or do you run it in the Windows environment before even creating the CD? 2. I removed winnt32.exe, along with all of the other files that are required to do an install from within the Windows environment. If I *only* copy over winnt32.exe, will that work okay? 3. Is this essentially putting an expiration date on your CD? Does this mean that if I make a CD today, then 30 days from now, one won't be able to install Windows? Or does this mean that if one installs Windows XP, it will be active for 30 days? Thanks in advance.

Force overwrite. If the string already exists, it'll be replaced. And yeah, as he said, " /f is missing in a lot of places there.

For **** NFO Viewer, you got it all wrong... Extract exe (or maybe you go to install and then check your temp dir - don't remember). Anyway, get the MSI file and it's.. ****.msi /passive /norestart edit: Here's the MSI. I'm going to take this down in a day or so. http://www.gooffense.com/****.msi

uAE 1.2 isn't going to have any icons when you slipstream it like that. Check your shortcut arrows. Are they green? If they are, then uAE is in there just fine. I use this for Xpize 3.2... http://www.msfn.org/board/index.php?showtopic=47681

ObjectDick? Is that like some gay version of ObjectDock? Or are you just thinking of something? hohoho

I've been running both of them together on three different computers. No problems. You sure that's where the conflict lies? Or is it possible that they are conflicting, but not throwing up any errors?

so is this based upon your desktop theme or what? anyone else have any ideas? Hasi or BB? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I can write a more in-depth tutorial on changing the check boxes. Everything in WPI seems to be simple HTML. If possible, I'll just release it as a plugin or something. I'm also going to look into making WPI full-GUI, like Xplode. I think that'd be cool. edit: Let me clarify ... I mean I will release a plugin that will allow one to change the look of the checkboxes without having to change your windows theme. It can be built-in and modified.

I just added this to my au3 script. ; Wait for possible Install New Hardware Dialog WinWaitActive ("Found New Hardware Wizard","",$WT_1*1000) ; If New Hardware Dialog pops up, Take care of it! if WinExists ( "Found New Hardware Wizard", "" ) then FoundNewHardware ( ) endif Func FoundNewHardware () ControlClick ( "Found New Hardware Wizard","","Button8" ) ;The number at the end of the line below signifies how long to wait for drivers to intall (miliseconds) WinWaitActive ( "Found New Hardware Wizard","Completing the found",100000) ControlClick ( "Found New Hardware Wizard","","Button9" ) EndFunc Then I defined $WT_1 ... I think I made it 45 (in case someone has a really slow computer.

Indeed. You forgot a backslash. Good eye Beets.

QTAlt 1.44 (newest one) has decent iTunes support ... from what I've read, anyway.

Wow, this is awesome. Love it. Danke much.

Last time I used Quicktime, it had a Java GUI. That's just retarded. It ran so slow. That's when I decided that Quicktime is a pile of trash and I've used QTAlt ever since...

There's more than one flavor of the retail version of NAV2005. There's one that lets you activate it on one PC. There's one that lets you activate it on three. And I think there's one that lets you activate it on five. The people that have copied over symlcrst.dll and successfully installed/activated NAV on multiple PCs probably had a version that lets you activate it on more than one computer. PS- It's actually possible to change which retail version you have by simply modifying a couple files (If I remember correctly, one was a DAT and the other was an INI). I found this out on accident when I was studying the differences between the downloadable trial version and my retail disc. This board isn't the most appropriate place to say how it's done, though.

Allow me to quote myself...

The first one uses is only for corporate clients and home users. The second one is used on server machines for various corporate editions of Symantec products, as well as clients. Unless you're running NAV7.6 CE Server (or another CE Server product), it's pointless to run the second one.

Knowing Astalavista, he probably 7zipped it and made a SFX. edit: I'm kidding, btw.

Bah. I did it myself. File is attached. xpize.au3

It's a pretty complicated process, actually. For me, I had to do it by using a win98 boot disc and using debug to compile a file that could load either partition 1 or 2. I used eMachine's method, however, where the restore option is located in boot.ini so the user just has to repeatedly press the down arrow key while the system is booting. Once they choose to restore, it would copy over a ghost image, but that could easily be changed to load up UAWXP Install. I can't think of a different way to do it, unless your FS is FAT32. If you have FAT32, then the whole process is rather easy. But FAT32 is inferior, so I chose the harder route.

Henceforth, "autoshutdown.exe /S" should do the trick.

I can attest to this bug as well. NCAB doesn't detect 7zip 4.20. I'm reverting to 4.19 right now... 4.19 worked just fine.

Should be rather simple ... xpize_v3.2.exe /S Then just have an AutoIt script that clicks ok when the "restore point created" prompt shows up ... or have it click okay if there's an error (for people that disable the restore feature). Anyone up for it? I suck with AutoIt.
