You have to replace the file "C:\Windows\Branding\Basebrd\basebrd.dll" with the DLL of the Edition you want to see. Or replace the Bitmaps inside the DLL with your own.

why do you try to edit the Win32.sys?

Use ShellExView to manage them. Play with it and disable all NON MS extensions and enable them with the 50:50 method until you found the extension which causes the issue.

@sounds, you did not run xperf -d to merge the trace to a new etl. The Wdf01000.sys is a kernel driver framework provided by MS to simplify the coding of kernel drivers. Are you running the latest drivers for your Pro Sonus device? Download the latest drivers and install them: http://www.presonus.com/technical-support/downloads/drivers-software/ André

Hi, with chipset drivers I mean the Southbridge/USB drivers from your mainboard. Which Mainboard do you have? Go to the homepage and look look for the latest drivers and install them. You can also try to install the Update KB976972, which updates the microsoft USB drivers.

Do the suggestions, cluberti told you!

Hi, the only spike I see from Explorer is the MessageLoop, where the Explorer handle all Windows messages and updates the TrayIcons. Which Shellextension do you have installed? André

create a 7z or RAR archive and upoaod it somewhere and send me a PM with the link, so that I can look at it.

Have you ever wanted to run a program from command line with admin rights under Vista/7? The solution is a sudo clone. Start notepad.exe and copy the following text into a new text file and save it as sudo.cmd: @echo Set objShell = CreateObject("Shell.Application") > %temp%\sudo.tmp.vbs @echo args = Right("%*", (Len("%*") - Len("%1"))) >> %temp%\sudo.tmp.vbs @echo objShell.ShellExecute "%1", args, "", "runas" >> %temp%\sudo.tmp.vbs @cscript %temp%\sudo.tmp.vbs Now copy the file to your Windows folder. Now you can sudo cmd.exe to easily start a command prompt with admin rights.

Hi, my guide works under Windows 7! Windows 7 still uses the schtask.exe and nothing else. Post your steps and post which program you're trying to start and which error did you see! André

in VirtualBox you can disable host sync., but the time is irrelevant for the update. The only important thing is the location, which must be inside a country of the EU and you have to set up the IE as your default browser.

install a VM and setup the location to Spain and wait till the update is shown.

Hi Martin, great to hear that my guide helped you to solve your issue greetings from Germany to Austria. André

your script only works on english Windows version.

Use the tool TakeControl from XPero.

compress the etl file as zip or RAR and upload it to your public Skydrive folder or upload it on an 1 click hoster like Rapidshare.com and post the link here.

ok, great to hear, that you fixed it

Great news

this is an english spoken board. What do you want to know? The install.wim is already compressing the data. So, you can't compress it twice.

Could you please upload the trace file? Compress it as Zip or RAR first, please.

Hi, I can see that you have spikes in your Audio Subsystem. Those spikes occur every 11 seconds and take 6.7 seconds. I can see that you have a RealTek HD Audio device. Do you use the latest drivers? André

C1 Halt ( http://www.hardwaresecrets.com/article/611/2 and http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Advanced_Configuration_and_Power_Interface ) is a power saving feature and doesn't slow down your PC. Could you please zip the trace and upload it somewhere?

Hi, have you selected Load Symbols? André

Is the forum only slow for me? The speed of the new board is terrible. Loading sites can take 20-30sec. The old one was a Ferrari, the new one is like a horse-drawn carriage. The only good thing is the new lighting of code and quotes. The rest is terrible

searching for new posts doesn't work. It says no topics, but several new topics are highlighted as new when I browse the forum.
