Trace why Windows 8 boots, shutsdown or hibernates slowly
MagicAndre1981 replied to MagicAndre1981's topic in Windows 8
In the power saving options you should have an option to select fast startup: Now Windows should use the new boot.- 370 replies

so you have NDIS and nvlddmkm.sys issues. The NDIs issue seems to be caused by WinRAR. What are you doing with WinRAR? Can you run msinfo32.exe and look if the NVIDIA GeForce GTX 560 Ti shars the same IRQ like the network card?

yes, send me the xperf generated ETL file.

Trace why Windows 8 boots, shutsdown or hibernates slowly
MagicAndre1981 replied to MagicAndre1981's topic in Windows 8
boot is terrible broken. The prefetcher doesn't work as it should and your DISK is busy all the time: What I can see is that the NOD32 service takes some CPU time and this causes the slow WinLogonInit phase: So you should also run the boot optimization I've explained here: http://www.msfn.org/board/index.php?showtopic=140262 but it is better to sue the new Hybrid Boot / fast Startup feature of Windows 8: http://www.msfn.org/board/index.php?showtopic=152937- 370 replies

Fix the insecure Windows 8 Flash version
MagicAndre1981 replied to MagicAndre1981's topic in Windows 8
hmm, for me it didn't work without removing the old Flash. Ok, I'll update the guide and remove the 1st part. -
make a xperf trace and share it (zip it fist to reduce the size).
-
I've also found this last year when playing with the Remove flag. The command is now shown in the CBs.log. There is also an async version of it.

Microsoft has now released an security update for flash to fix the issue: Update for Internet Explorer Flash Player for Windows 8 (KB2755399) http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=34745 Update for Internet Explorer Flash Player for Windows 8 for x64-based systems (KB2755399) http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=34743 http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2755399/en-us

What is the purpose of the package winpe-str.cab?

ah, good point! I'm now using Vmware player 5 and no longer virtualbox. And VMware seems to emulate touch in the VM.

Wim Conversion to VHD on Windows Server 2008r2
MagicAndre1981 replied to bookie32's topic in Windows Server
Have you installed the Win8 ADK, .Net Framework 4.5 and Powershell 3.0? -
@Tihiy do you know why the "show desktop" button is now larger? In former patches it has the same size like in Windows 7.
-
hmm, ok, this explains my blackscreen when I tried the same. There must be an easier way. The Win8 RTM files still check if glass is allowed to be enabled. The RTM files (uDMW.dll) have a function called AdjustWindowColorization which sets the opaque color (s_clrDefaultInactiveWindowBaseColor this seams to be the gray and s_clrDefaultActiveWindowBaseColor for the new forground color), which the RP also has this function but doesn't use those values ...

FAQ: What is the UAC? - Part2
MagicAndre1981 replied to MagicAndre1981's topic in Windows Tips 'n' Tweaks
This doesn't for for normal/standard users Try to find out why it only runs with admin rights in Win7. The Application Compatibility Toolkit (ACT) is what you need to detect what's wrong with the app. -

the boot is fine. 20s to metro or desktop and 30s until everything is loaded. Activate hibernation again and make a trace of the hybrid boot.- 370 replies
