  1. I tend to use prefetch for the boot only.. app prefetch is useless for me, as I tend to reinstall around once a month. The boot prefetch should decrease your boot tim after a couple of boots, but app prefetch will in general slowdown boot times, whilst decreasing app launch times. It's a tradeoff that you need to decide.. app prefetch is good if you install once a year, and only install the apps that you need. app prefetch is crap if you rienstall often, or install/uninstall quite a few apps quite often. When this is the case, the prefetch just gets bloated down with many apps, some of which you may not even use any more.
  2. using the updates that you have downloaded would be time consuming and tedious use ryanVM's update or XUpdatePack google for the packs, and then you can integrate the update packs into your nlite at the 'hotfixes and program addons' section.
  3. it's a bit self explanatory really.. if you have a pci-e grfx card, then the agp filters are safe to remove. if you have an intel chip, then the cpu driver is safe to remove. saying that, i have always used AMD chips, and haven't seen problems before when removing the cpu driver.. I suspect it's just an old cool n' quiet kind of implementation.. i mean, XP is what, 6 years old? whatever that driver did, no-one's gonna have that hardware anymore anyway
  4. try adding the reg entry manually? i'll have a look at installing it on my machine and see how far I get *edit* K-lite 2.77 just installed perfectly for me.. it's only 7 megs, so you should grab it as it's a much newer version than the one you have. saying that, I downloaded it about 3 months ago, so there's probably a newer one than I've got
  5. A64 3700 overclocked to 2750 mhz, and it's still the lowest scorer in my system :'(
  6. howdy has anyone managed to get Flash Player working in Vista RTM yet? the link on adobe's site just links back and forth, saying on one page that the vista version is available, then on the other saying it isn't. Browsing is getting a tad annoying with firefox missing plugin symbols everywhere any advice? *EDIT* adobe updated the plugin today, works fine

    Rtm?

    runs like my nlited XP pretty much, once you go through services.msc and rip out everything you don't need/want. once the searching and idexing features are disabled, as well as offline files and about 20 smaller services, vista stopped thrashing the harddrive when you're idling (thank god.. my Raptor was driving me up the wall with constant read/writes noises), and the OS seems *much* more responsive. Not too far from my trimmed down XP. I'm gonna go to bed, and get someone to wake me up when Nuhi releases nLite for Vista
  8. howdy not sure why you type ctrl-shft, as any run command in Vista is ran with admin privelages. It's about time MS did this, as only power users would be using the run command anyways anywho, any particular reason for step three? as in the 'ctrl-shift' input?

    I Got Blue Screen

    holy crap that's a lot of runonce hotfixes try using a "ProgramAddons" hotfix pack? ryanVM's seemed to cause my last two NF4 boards to BSOD, but work fine with the other boxes in my house. I personally reccomend "XUpdatePack_v1.0.6".. i'll try and remember where I found it, and post a link in a mo
  10. that "free" certification requires "that you have a Class 3 Commercial Software Publisher Certificate from Verisign. This costs $500 per year, and as the name implies, is only available to commercial entities." smaller companies such as the company that made the temperature monitor for my DFI board will most likely be unable to conform to/afford this, and this goes for small time developers who work on SpeedFan, and the fact that motherboardmonitor is now discontinued.. how am I going to monitor my temps in this OS? True, speedfan works when I boot using F8, but it would be such a blessing if the Vista implementation of nLite disables the Driver Signature Enforcement. Same goes for apps like DeamonTools, and although I haven't tried it yet as (en)codec packs haven't been updated yet, I suspect DVDdecrypter. Nuhi, if you manage to fix this, there'll be a million thankfull users until then, i think i'm gonna head on back to the x86 ver, when I can be arsed reinstalling.
  11. if you run "control userpasswords2" from the run command, and untick "users must enter a password...", and then click apply, it will prompt you for your password, and then autologin is set this worked in XP, and works in Vista just fine!
  12. 7800.. i'm guessing it's a 256meg card? it seems like vista has some kind of software GART useable over pci.. tho that's just a quick and crazy guess I'm using build 5538, and I have a 7900GT.. i just checked, and my advanced properties says exactly the same thing as yours from video memory.. pci gart would be pretty cool, i'll benchmark some doom III ultra quality tests in a while, and see if i'm right about the texture allocation being bigger than the grfx physically has
  13. i wouldn't mind adfobe bridge either, but that's it apart from PS and IR.. it'd poss work that way if you used the modded msi (thanks loads for that ), and changed the main CS2 abcy.ini.. then ran it from the root setup.exe, with the ini told only to install PS and IR sorry if that didnt make sense, but it does in my head i'll go do it, and if it works, see how 'lite' i can get the installer, so that i can fit it on an nlite cd Adobe CS2\Adobe Creative Suite 2.0\Adobe Bridge Services the switch for adobe bridge is /qn sorted.. much easier i'll just add that as a cab, to install additionally to PS/IR
  14. the first time i used RC3, i removed UK stuff by accident too.. it's because in RC3, there's now two options in the languages section, one for languages and one for keyboard layout.. you need to check them both!
  15. total bitrate for dvd's can be upto around 10mb, and a 100mb lan will give on average 9-12 mb.. so it depends what overheads you have. if you're running anything else over the network, you might sometimes drop frames. we have a gigabit network, but transfer speeds can depend quite heavily on cpu speed.. i've seen it at 15mb, sometimes at over 70 so, depends on overheads, if it's just for streaming a dvd, then in most cases you'll be fine on 100mb
  16. two ways i guess, maybe three.. 1/ install msn, res hack the exe to show no search, take the hacked exe and stick in your $OEM$ folder 2/silently install something like Glass which deletes the adverts and allows for other customizations 3/google for a reg entry, and stick this into your cmdlines.txt .. tho i have no idea about this one, it's just a guess hope this helps!
  17. my nlite iso is like 3 gigs.. i use alcohol120% to burn image file to dvd, works a charm
  18. PDF works fine here.. now to fix my **** 400meg Offiec installer
