One of my friend's office has 6 pcs in an accounting network, totally isolated from the outside world. These are located in a separate room. No floppies nor CDs are allowed in that room except for the accounting package updates/upgrades. No internet either.
thats the situation.. what to do with the them and their needs.
.. and to my knowledge.. they aren't also allowded to R & D the operation system
so is it worthy to those situation over here..
specially installing OS or automating the OS or troubleshooting..
Accourding to ur situation, troubleshooting is done in ur fren office is done either by third person or by one of them but they will certainly have to bypass those limitation.
PS. Please don't double post..
instead edit the previos one..

merging this, you will get option to gain ownership for files and folder
SHIFT + Rt click

now you can take ownership with the registry file
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\*\shell\runas]
@="Gain Ownership"
"Extended"=""
"NoWorkingDirectory"=""
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\*\shell\runas\command]
@="cmd.exe /c takeown /A /f \"%1\" && icacls \"%1\" /grant administrators:F"
"IsolatedCommand"="cmd.exe /c takeown /A /f \"%1\" && icacls \"%1\" /grant administrators:F"
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Directory\shell\runas]
@="Gain Ownership"
"Extended"=""
"NoWorkingDirectory"=""
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Directory\shell\runas\command]
@="cmd.exe /c takeown /A /f \"%1\" /r /d y && icacls \"%1\" /grant administrators:F /t"
"IsolatedCommand"="cmd.exe /c takeown /A /f \"%1\" /r /d y && icacls \"%1\" /grant administrators:F /t"
SHIFT + Right Click = Gain Ownership context menu

You don't need to hack the registry, a setting is in the Power Options control panel.
so that you can collect your favourite flexible windows settings registry and save them to a single reg file
Incase of reinstallation and distribution of your OS u can simply merge the REG file you created collecting registry entries and the best thing all you setting are set back intact without manually editing one by one.
ISN'T this great....
thats why i prefer registry entries.... :cheers

For Windows Vista Ultimate/Business/Enterprise:
1- Execute secpol.msc
2- In the left list, choose "Local Policies", then "Security Options"
3- Set "Accounts: Administrator account status" to Enabled.

actually what i have noticed is
The VBS script works on the files directly in system32 directory Eg: sysdm.cpl, syssteup.dll
but it didn't work for program files directory or files Eg: iexplore.exe
But the batch script works for both directory, what could be the problem
if i copy the same iexplore.exe to the desktop, it loss the ownership by default, it doesn't need to take the ownership of the file.
So ownership should be taken from the default folder where the actual file reside.

heres the slightly changed Script ...
ECHO Taking ownership of the file uxtheme.dlltakeown /A /f %systemroot%\System32\uxtheme.dll
icacls %systemroot%\System32\uxtheme.dll /grant administrators:F
Echo Renaming file to uxtheme.old
ren %systemroot%\System32\uxtheme.dll uxtheme.old
Echo copying patched uxtheme.dll
xcopy /y X:\uxtheme.dll "%systemroot%\System32\"
but this didn't work
Dim Act : Set Act = CreateObject("Wscript.Shell")Dim File1
For Each File1 in Wscript.Arguments
Act.Run("takeown /A /f " & File1),1,True
Act.Run("icacls " & File1 & " /grant administrators:F"),1,True
Next
this screen popuped once while executing VBS script, does this have any meaning. I only changed the text with BOLD

yeah, internet explorer 7 is really wired..
have anyone checked it RAM consumption of iexplore.exe
its more then 30 - 40 MB
Also
most of the third party program which ran on VISTA is consuming approx 9 MB RAM
but the same app. is consuming just 3 - 4 MB RAM on XP.
Eg: msn messenger : 10 MB on vista------------> 2 MB on XP
yahoo messenger: 23 MB------------>1 - 2 MB on XP
Even a idle systray icons are consuming 9 - 10 MB
I must say this is what called a proper memory management

then don't get worried
vista original format is UDF, so u need to creat a UDF format ISO image with the help of cdimage or oscdimg
Here i am going with oscdimg { coz i already got success with this method, and i am sure u will get too..}
i assume ur Vista sorce is inside E:\vistaDVD
then ur command line to build ur original vistaDVD will be
oscdimg -bE:\vistaDVD\boot\etfsboot.com -h -u2 -m -lVISTA_EN_DVD E:\vistaDVD\ D:\VistaDVD.isoDownload oscdimg
Here,
boot info is given by =E:\vistaDVD\boot\etfsboot.com
Vol label = VISTA_EN_DVD
source = E:\vistaDVD
Output ISO = D:\vistaDVD.iso
Output image can be burn on DVD
PS: if u want ur additional softwares/tweaks/updates to be included on the DVD, simply create folder inside ur vistaDVD folder source eg. [e:\vistaDVD\myupdates]. It will be included while compiling the ISO.
cheers

do u have the source of your original DVD

I'll admit that I haven't read all the posts fully but to me some of you seem to be missing the point. Hardware is getting better and better and 4Gb of RAM will at some point become standard. If you benchmark 4Gb RAM XP against 4Gb Vista, you'll see that Vista IS way BETTER. And that's the thing, Vista WASN'T designed for the computer of yesterday. It WAS designed for the computer of tomorrow. SuperFetch is by design made to hogg all your RAM and ReadyBoost will speed up system load times with the right hardware in the right situations. I recently read an article on engadget where a guy tested out Vista on a new macbook pro. He said that vista was faster and more responsive then os x on that same machine.
currently my VISTA is consuming 50% of RAM of 768 MB, then i disabled my un-necessary services including readyboost and superfetch as you beleive it will hogg all RAM
but on the next reboot there isn't any difference still the same usage of RAM. 50 %. this is what the meaning of proper memory management ?
Now the performance of vista on macbook, initial installation of any OS will obviously be faster. even XP on 128 MB or vista on 512 MB machine will be faster but with the period of time and third party software installation it will become slower. and you will face the same with your vista installation too. then again u have to apply some tweaks to boostup .

Fantastic.. thats what i was looking for.. a perfect script.
Gunsmoking, you are always great on script..

PS: Stop whining, Vista is not an OS to stick on your current Win2000/XP box, it's a new OS for new boxes. Just like how Win2000/XP cannot run on the same box as your98/ME setup, the requirements have simply changed. Upgrade and grow up, or keep using XP. Nothing is new here, MS has always been on a 2 step OS plan. A first OS comes out (95, 2000, Vista) and it usually requires a new box to run efficiently because of massive improvements. Then a 2nd stage OS comes (98, XP, Win2009) out fairly quickly that will work on your same hardware.I understand that people don't want to upgrade from XP and that, but... Keep in mind, Microsoft is extending support for Windows XP to 2014.
If so then i will wait for win2009 (if it will get released on time)
MS isn't punctual on time as vista was scheduled to be released on initial 2006 and delayed a year..
