I called in some reinforcements (same guy who did the UXtheme.dll hacks) to help with this. Hopefully he can find something out as well...

It seems to me you're stuck on only one meaning of the word, and in this case one of the worst (depending on who you talk to). If you prefer to use a similar term without a negative connotation, replace integration with slipstream when you see it on this board. http://dictionary.reference.com/search?q=Integration

I shall check the MSI in a moment. EDIT:: I found a possible cause of the problem, and am uploading an updated version of both downloads.

Without errors, no real help can be given...

Haha! Sorry, i just got a laught out of that. No offense intended, though i could have just laughed because i'm pretty tired at the moment. 1. Being in control is dependant on the creator. I can't change that. 2. I would first have to understand the inner workings of XPCREATE for that to happen (i understand a majority but not all) 3. To maintain the hotfix lists, i would in essence need a master list of ALL hotfixes with links to ALL of them for EVERY language. That's is a monumentous job in of itself, and then to maintain i'd have to go through and remove the old replacing with the new. 4. I would need a controlled server for that, and MSFN currently has hotlink protection enabled. I could allow a bypass for certain file types, but then we run into the problem of number 3. With regards to all those who have a commercial version, I'm more then willing to try and get XPCREATE to work properly for you, seeing as you PAID for it. However, i don't guarantee that same support for the freeware version. If they're posts on this forum, I'll answer when i can, so everyone can benefit, but i just can't make any guarantees on it.

The people TRYING to buy the software have a right to be disgruntled. The people that DID buy it have even more. That being said...I'll talk to GM about setting up a way for me to collect money in his name (PayPal most likely) but i HIGHLY doubt that would happen. That and i don't know if I would trust that type of payment method myself...

Not that I'm aware of. Checked your mail lately?

XPCREATE Commercial has the ability to automatically download hotfixes from a list on the server (which is severely outdated). It also allows for integration of Shockwave and Flash plugins and a couple other things i forget at the moment. However, i should point out, untill GM gets back...you won't be able to get the commercial version.

To be fair...why would programmers program for multiple threads when when the applications were programmed it would actually indere performance sinc ehte machine couldn't execute the multiple threads... As with most things in technology, once the hardware is out there, applications will start to be developed for it... There isn't much overhead with Dual Core CPUs though. The main problem atleast with the Intel implementation is the bus and caches. Especially in the HT models where they're still going to be shared caches which reduces speed.

I think you might have misunderstood what i was trying to say... Everywhere you were adding the \" you added a "\" which is unneccasary and syntactically wrong. Instead think of it more like, "Alright, I need a quote here and here in this command. Alright, let's put those in." Since those quotes are undoubtedly not the outer ones (by this i mean, the one just after the /D and just before the /F) then you'll need to put a \ before them. That's all that the guide was trying to say... So in this instance, you would need a \ before the quote just after the /Y and a \ just before the quote after Application Data since these are the embedded quotes. It appears you have an extra quote at the end of the line above, which is syntax error and would screw up the importation of the line.

odd... I didn't have that problem. Let me double check my version real quick... EDIT:: Nope, right version. I rename each version to DVD.EXE just so i don't have to go editing my script and it works fine with /S

good to see you know the definition of MultiBoot which is what the topic started what to recreate...

very few if done properly. just open up a command prompt, and type: bootcfg /? to see what all you can do.

I would suggest leaving that line incase for some reason the new kernel fails...it's there soley for backup reasons. You can change the description however by editing bootcfg /copy /D "Windows XP Professional" /ID 1 and replacing the quoted text with what you want.

You have your own answer... http://unattended.msfn.org/advanced/cosmetics/bootscreen.htm

yes, i fixed it just a few moments ago.

DANG IT!! I knew i would forget something, and of course it was those darn file versions in the MSI itself. The files themselves are 5.093, but the MSI still says 5.092. As for the new switches, i didn't get a chance to add them, as i was trying to figure out a new way for the switches to operate.

Instead of the current method of telling something to install, the switches would therefore be instead telling it to NOT install, ie instead of setting switches to =1 it'd be =0

Oh yes.... who wants to voluteer to enter stuff into the new DB that should be close to completion in the coming week or so? This will include AppSwitches and Registry Tweaks.

Though the implementation of QCHAIN is enabled in the latest Hotfixes, MOST of the SP1 hotfixes don't, nor do the majority if not ALL 2000 hotfixes and even a few 2003. It's just simpler to use the program as all it does is add a few seconds to your install time. As for the PDF, i'll look into it, but if you notice, the PDF is simply the website printed in PDF form so I'll have to check on how to add page numbers. You should be able when printing to add a footer or something with page numbers i thought...

The key in the WINNT.SIF file is provided by Dell to masproduce the CDs and still have them install. The key in the UNATTEND.TXT is a fake key to demonstrate the file.

Since you didn't take the hint... http://unattended.msfn.org/advanced/cosmetics/theme.htm And yes, you need a .theme file, though it's easy to make one (especially if you follow that guide)

Thanks for searching. Better yet, thanks for checking the Unattended Guide.

$OEM$\$1\Drivers = %systemdrive%\Drivers As for installing them... http://unattended.msfn.org/intermediate/drivers/drivers.htm

I've had enough of this and this thread. I have no need to defend myself to you nor anyone else. What i have said is simply my interpretation of what others have said. I have not lied, nor have I spun the truth. GM never stated in his EULA that he is required to distribute his program to you. He never violated his own EULA. I really don't care whether people read your reply or mine or not. Let them believe what they want. I've voiced my opinion, you've voiced your's. Leave it there and let the users decide.
