he came @me so i went right back @him.. i couldnt ignore it i do need to calm down for the simple fact theres more waiting in line your right

thanking you guys

setupldr.bin should point to ORG and not VOL1 in step 3 and all files and folders in ORG\i386 should be in ORG, no need for the i386 folder i think maybe the spnotes.htm should be in the root with your WIN51IP.* files im not using the method so im guessing but its an educated guess on second thoughts ignore me... i think thisll best be answered by someone who knows the method.. i think what ive just outlined will negate your $OEM$ folder sorry rexhsu

yeps that'll work

its big because it supports all these operating systems TabletPC, Windows 2000, Windows 2000 Service Pack 2, Windows 2000 Service Pack 3, Windows 98, Windows 98 Second Edition, Windows ME, Windows Server 2003, Windows XP plus multilanguage support see the unattended guide to slim it down just for xp you need this for your unattended cd unless theres a winxp english only distribution i havent seen

ok so 1 line wasnt enough stretching to 2 warning to anyone trying this.. prolly best to make sure your scripts work before applying this

yeah well ..whatever lee pmsl maybe im piddled off with stupid a** questions that are totally not related to the subject.. i work out an answer only to find that someone jumps in with an unrelated question, meaning, anyone whos read the topic probably wont spot the post if they jump to the end like me ..how anyone can miss a pinned subject thats usually top of the topics beats me ..your entitled to your opinion lee, even if it does go in one ear and out the other ..i spend time on my thoughts, only to see them fade in a wash of dumbass questions.. aaron ..any chance of a dumbass questions topic pinned to the top.. only jokin they wont spot it your right.. i am like god .. i give with one hand and slap with the other and forgotten more than i know you say constructive with my comments, you obviously didnt read top down.. exactly my argument someone give lee some NEWBIE POWER ffs lol ..theres actually quite a good tip in this topic if you can spot it how you can say i slag people off all the time i dont know, and you looked my name up in a dictionary, my good god, your not a stalker are ya ..now im worried.. sorry lee i dont do gay ..if you like shaggin men thats your bag.. not your handbag, what i mean is, whatever turns you on, i got nothing against your kind, just dont do it near me

im not knocking yer mate.. joking ..its all good stuff edit :: definately some interesting stuff there gosh still half way through cleaning it up so i can read it lol not sure theres many people in here thatd follow it though they seem stuck on reg files and dont see the potential for infs my headache with infs is bitmasking.. ill get there oneday

blimey gosh lol .. no wonder its buggy its a mess .. one suggestion .. get a faster processor and use less tweaks or use word to create infs.. lmao or if yer worried about security .. get a decent firewall and lock down yer ports ill have a read though might be a few i missed

lol good one spose you tried blazing the update rollup

im wondering why you gotta use cdimage ..i use a preconfigured nero setup using original dates no problems rolling an iso seems the longest root to me when i said nope .. i meant, you cant use the servicepack integrate switch

my brains a blank.. the only other thing i can say is i got no stardock or stylexp stuff installed.. i know its a dumbass thought but make sure youre using the sp1 uxtheme.dll

gods a s***bag too lol <--- look what he did to my brain

search www.themexp.org for Cyberfield XP final .. i only got a .msstyles with it but it worked straight off edit :: or just search for cyberfield and youll find the wallpaper too

try changing this %ResourceDir% variable.. ive only seen it in the luna.theme file ..mind you it works in my theme on an install.. basically i copied the luna.theme renamed it and edited it.. maybe yours needs something else ..which msstyle you using and ill grab it Path=%ResourceDir%\Themes\Cbfield\Cbfield.msstyles edit :: i only get the win2k style when i forget to copy the patched uxtheme.dll into a new i386 folder

ill have a dabble EDIT :: the only way is to somehow get xp install to load ansi.sys

under the key [HKEY_USERS\.DEFAULT\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\ThemeManager] add DllName as a REG_EXPAND_SZ type with %SystemRoot%\Resources\themes\*****\*****.msstyles replace ***** with your preference all this does is to change the titlebar to your msstyles visualstyle still get the xp logos.. only use it if you use classic style logon also check the ColorStyle=NormalColor open display properties\appearance and see whats listed under the color scheme listbox did you not get a theme file with the msstyles your using

if like me you like pretty colors.. at the top of your script use the color command color attributes are specified by TWO hex digits -- the first corresponds to the background; the second the foreground. each digit can be any of the following values: 0 = Black 8 = Gray 1 = Blue 9 = Light Blue 2 = Green A = Light Green 3 = Aqua B = Light Aqua 4 = Red C = Light Red 5 = Purple D = Light Purple 6 = Yellow E = Light Yellow 7 = White F = Bright White so for bright white text on a light blue background use COLOR 9F :: specify columns wide by lines high MODE CON COLS=x_amount LINES=x_amount :: to maximise your batch.. call it with START /MAX /WAIT mycmd.cmd :: while your at it give it a name in the title bar using TITLE blimey its a personalised script.. wowee ..numinous.. you rock heres a for instance.. a 1 line cmd window that displays what its doing rather than what its done @ECHO OFF MODE CON COLS=40 LINES=1 COLOR 9F TITLE Installing ECHO DirectX 9.0b...............Please Wait start "DX9" /wait %systemdrive%\install\DirectX9b\dxsetup.exe /opk ECHO Windows Media Player 9.....Please Wait start "MP9" /wait %systemdrive%\install\WMP9\MPSetupXP.exe /Q:A /R:N /C:"setup_wm.exe /Q:A /R:N /NoMigrate /DisallowSystemRestore"

nope
