thanks for this how-to!

cmedia's ftp was a pain in the a** get the original cmedia zip-file here (4MB) (fast! mirror)

it does, but it's slooooooooooooooooow (1kb in 50,59s) (try it with a ftp-tool, not the browser) i don't know any existing mirror yet downloading at the present moment is almost impossible here's the content of notes.txt

here's they way i do it and it works just fine: install the catalyst driver via "OemPnPDriversPath" and the control panel via SET KEY=HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\RunOnceEx IF EXIST %systemroot%\system32\atiddc.dll REG ADD %KEY%\003 /VE /D "ATI Control Panel 4.9" /f IF EXIST %systemroot%\system32\atiddc.dll REG ADD %KEY%\003 /V 1 /D "%systemdrive%\i\Applications\ATICP\Setup.exe -s -f1 setup.iss" /f on this way you'll make sure the control panel only gets installed, if an ATI card is present!

Creative Drivers v5.12.01.0444 for SB Live!/Audigy/Audigy II although they are not official (somehow), maybe they solve any issues combined with this sound pack!? http://warp2search.net/modules.php?name=Ne...ticle&sid=19981

you're right... i just concentratred on SIL3112

hotfix: - delete "ulsata" folder in "006_Mass_Storage" - delete "s150*", "ulsata*" and "ulsata2*" in /i386 - delete all entries with above names in txtsetup.sif and "ulsata"-folderstructure in winnt.sif done

also see this link for the post above http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en;885626

yes... folders.txt

BUT.... is the nvidia "control panel" (i.e. sidebar with options) available at all, if you do not install it via setup.exe??

also check out "Adobe Reader 7.0 Beta Full" http://ardownload.adobe.com/pub/adobe/read...70_enu_full.exe

;Show Desktop icon on Quicklaunch stuff below that line does not look like as if it belongs in the registry also be aware that lines with a semicolon are commented out and therefore not applied, such as the whole section ";Broadband Tweak for Windows XP"

better keep "guest", makes accesses to network shares less complicated

I'm using AR 6.0.2 the plugins folder should JUST contain "EWH32.api, printme.api, Search.api" and NO folders at all!

it seems you completely whiped your plug-in folder... what does your "Adobe\Acrobat 6.0\Reader\plug_ins" folder contain?

@a06lp: you have to delete every user with the command, you don't want to keep. on my machine only "administrator" & "guest" are present if you don't use $Progs you'll won't need this either ooops the AR6 commands are wrong "Programme" should be replaced with %programfiles% instead of MOVE "%programfiles%\Adobe\Acrobat 6.0\Reader\plug_ins\*.*" "%systemdrive%\Programme\Adobe\Acrobat 6.0\Reader\plug_insBAK" make it MOVE "%programfiles%\Adobe\Acrobat 6.0\Reader\plug_ins\*.*" "%programfiles%\Adobe\Acrobat 6.0\Reader\plug_insBAK" cmdow @ /HID: see http://unattended.msfn.org/xp/downloads.htm

@a06lp: 1) yes it speeds up AR6 (AR Speedup 1.28 does exactly the same) 2) this deletes delauft users coming with XP (remoteuser, help user, .NET user if installed) (note: here are German folder names involved) 3) This is because of different lnk- files that are in different folders (you could say: %currentuser%==%userprofile%) 4) yes, the links from the installation CD get copied that way 5) programs from the CD in "$OEM$\$Progs" get copied write protected! if you use a program from these folders, no changes you made will be saved, unless you turn off write protection!
