I don't have any ready but this has been stated many times and been proven true with WU, HFNetChk or MBSA even more.

My mother still doesn't get the difference. Both are labelled microsoft. So...

Afaik, there is no such rule. The programmer decides which error code should be returned on a specific error. You can return a code that is usually a success code upon an error. When wihu encounters an error, it displays a full sentence such as "the file could not be found". But when it's the other app that had an error, it has no way to know which one.

You will always get the most recent file, no matter the order of the hotfixes.

Use Autoruns, save a report and attach it here. This is a very powerful tool.

Did you use nlite twice on the same folder ? Try to start again from scratch : delete the folder, copy your CD again to this folder, start nlite. If needed, you can automate this with a .reg file that would silenlty be run after each install. Go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\MyComputer\NameSpace\ Remove the entries you don't want. Export the key to a .reg file. Lets name it mycomp.reg for instance. Edit it with notepad, on the second line, add [-HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\MyComputer\NameSpace\]. Save. Move mycomp.reg to the $OEM$ folder for your CD, edit the cmdlines.txt file, add this line at the end : "regedit /s mycomp.reg" (with the quotes). You're done.

Start -> Run -> Services.msc, find "Themes", right-click, properties, set its start mode to automatic, click on start. You should be done. And next time you have a problem, attach you lastsession.ini, it is really helpful for us.

There should a new version soon (bugfixing when dealing with environnement vars). But anyway, AHK rocks. ^^

ok, no more spam I had hardware.fr in mind: 500k members, 38M posts; it rather looks like a giant shoutbox (plus some highly elaborated messages ).

Using HFSLIP or updating windows once it is installed in the classic way has just the same effect. Except that if HFSLIP has been used, you can not uninstall the update as there is no 'previous' versions of the updated files. In fact, we ensure that it has the same effect; it is meant to. The difference is that HFSLIP saves up to 150MB on your installation CD, at least the same amount of space on your hard drive and speeds up installation. And as far as I've understood, it is possible to update Vista just in the same way HFSLIP updates 2K/XP/2K3.

Actually MSFN is the largest community I've ever visit with non-spam posts.

[Docklet App] PodXP by leFool A program with many features like AveDesk but also some others and most important, a different approach. Latest version is 1.1b. There has been no update for 6 months but the beast is stable and runs great. Of course, it is free. Website

ROFLMAO But take a look at Google Earth anyway : the bar on the left takes 50% more space with SegoeUI.

You guys don't want a clear winner this month. It's a pleasure. @Slimy, as far as I'm concerned, I do both : first personal preference and then there is the cas where I don't like the colour but there has been some work : the desktop is a whole thing not just one theme per app and a random wallpaper. It's really up to you.

What do you mean by this? It's called smooth-scrolling and as far as I remember, it has weird effects; toggle it.

Check the third element from the end in Navigation. Who knows ? Also, it may happens if there is a resized image (it has a 2000px width but the html code says it is 300px wide). Also, check your CPU usage while scrolling.

Maybe but that takes 44% of your 2.2GHz processor.

You know today's controllers : you sit somewhere and play. The wii's controller makes you move, you'll sometimes end up exhausted. Beating an opponent does not mean you simply have better fingers, it means much more; you play with your entire body, not just with two hands. You'll have to do big moves in order to catch a ball, just like in reality. Playing with a classic controller has always been a bit sad because it has never tired anybody (not considering >4hours LANs ). In fact, it gives you the fun of the reality and the occasion to have a minigun or a rocket launcher. Moreover, there is a social thing : it seems meant to be multiplayer. Maybe that the best example is parents who tell their children not to stay in front of the television as a couch potato while they can do sports outside. Maybe that wikipedia will say it better:

The gameplay.

Just the same. Their ads are holly attracting and it has what a computer will never come close to. Also a friend of mine has a Wii, I really gotta see him.

If finally got rid of PAE. Simple, stupid solution. Edit boot.ini, add /KERNEL=ntkrnl.exe, reboot. @Aegis, you were right.

I had to vote "no". Sorry.

No, still not married. Maybe because I'm only 18.

Many files are hosted on free.fr. This is a fench ISP and they have a very bad habit : when you use multiple chunks to download a file and their server are under load, there's corruption at the limit of the chunks. It would be nice to have something that would split the download in n chunks and then download [(sizeof(file)/n)+10KB] for each of them instead of just [sizeof(file)/n].
