nice lamp shade! but where's the price tag? should've looked closer at the pic the last time i visited his site (ie & 2k) ... oh well ... )

oh ... is that avatar really you FDV?

it shows that you have HFSLIP Version - 60422 ... everything seems to fine w/ your log ... again you may find the latest from: http://www.msfn.org/board/index.php?showtopic=69809

hi mystek! this is Microsoft's futher push against software piracy ... i've seen how it works since i introduced a friend to HFSLIP & even guided him regularly on how to do it ... he was able to come up w/ a good install when suddenly he complained about some icon on his taskbar saying something like he might be a victim of counterfeiting ... the "seemingly star-shaped" icon wouldn't go away & there was no way of taking it out ... further, upon restart there was portion on his lower right window stating it was not a genuine windows he was running ... he! he! there was a discussion about it somewhere ... if i recall it correctly, even FDV commented on this ... as soon as i find it, i'll post it for you

oops ... had it mixed up ... had it mixed up sorry!

HFSVCPACK_SW has been renamed HFSVPK_SW ... pls double check ... you might be using an old ver if you still have HFSVCPACK_SW ... you may find the latest from: http://www.msfn.org/board/index.php?showtopic=69809 have you tried putting it in the HF folder (if you want it slipstreamed)? you might want to consider re-downloading the MP10.exe from http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details...&DisplayLang=en ...

nope! sir, which specific driver pack did you use for this? or you got all the latest file versions & came up w/ this pack? your eyes seem to be doing great ... especially w/ all these files you have to pack!

ha! ha! this is sick ... =)

thanks much Tain! 1 quick inquiry ... i see that HFSLIPCD.inf is no longer included? don't we need this anymore?

hi Axed! i have been using & testing HFSLIP for quite sometime now & (just like the others) i'm trying to see which fits & otherwise ... i believe doing so makes Tomcat & tommyp consider some other ideas ... everybody's contribution is important to make HFSLIP the best it can be ... as Tomcat & tommyp know, know that i am all for doing things the HFSLIP way ... & i couldn't agree w/ you more ... but then again, if it always worth testing HFSLIP!

hi Tomcat! oops ... i'm sorry ... CAT it is! he! he! yup i did check the list but i focused more on the KBs ... as for the rest, they've been sitting in the folders eversince (mostly those in the HFCABS yes sir ...TC, pardon me for asking but will HFSLIP eventually come to completely support RyanVM update addon? Honestly, I do not have anything against it. In fact, it helps us getting just 1 big chunk than having to download each hotfixes (that apply to our systems). (It is helpful RyanVM! ) However, this brings me to the next question about the path HFSLIP will thread ... having everything done the HFSLIP way! On the other hand, should HFSLIP completely welcome the use of the update pack (& some others), perhaps we can request RyanVM (& the other creators) to consider HFSLIP's processes & requirements when coming up w/ update addons for best compatibility purposes! Sir(s), again from my end ... however or whichever way you guys decide to bring HFSLIP ... i will support it! It will just be a matter of getting/using the resources for coming up w/ successful builds! btw sir, in some other builds i experimented on, i tried adding regular .exe installers in the HFSVCPACK FOLDERS & until now i've been observing their functions in the GUI already & i see nothing wrong ... they install at T-13 & completes successfully ... and works fine while in the OS already ! anything bad about doing this? Thanks!

hi! i was able to come up w/ a successful build after 3 tries ... the most significant change was the removal of .cab files ... i'd just like to ask if this has some effect on the build though: Creating ISO... G:\HFTOOLS\mkisofs.exe (600): *** Could not create mutex for list synchronisation. do we need to remove also directx files from the HFCABS folder if already in ryanvm update pack 2.0.6? in short, anything that is duplicated needs to be removed? attached is HFSLIP.txt for your reference is needed. as i understand, HFSLIP actually considers only the latest file version when recompressing, correct? as such, HFSLIP should just ignore presence of duplicate files, right? please correct me if i am mistaken. thanks again! HFSLIP.txt

crystal sir! i do not include those i do not need (some are present though in ryanvm update pack ... but i guess the update caters to all types of users be it for desktop or portable) if its regarding the zip files, i won't use what i don't need next time!

no biggie TC! got 518a ... btw, were there changes made to the other 3 accompanying files: HFANSWER.zip / HFSPLUG1.zip / DBLBINXP.zip? thanks!

will do sir ... have already done it ... (517b & cabsdk.exe) if only i had more time last night (& didn't fall asleep doing such), i would have experimented on removal & retention of fixes thanks!

hi to everyone! Tomcat, i just like to share what happened last night when i attempted to create a new build using 517a & perhaps get your insight why some things happened. i'm once again stuck at 39mins overnight. it may not be worth the worry but i saw these lines (or the likes of it that happen for different addons) passed by several times during the process: Processing Addon_Notepad2G_dgelwin.cab File Not Found File Not Found 0 File(s) copied FINDSTR: Cannot open TEMP\INI.INI FINDSTR: Cannot open TEMP\INI.INI FINDSTR: Cannot open TEMP\INI.INI FINDSTR: Cannot open TEMP\INI.INI FINDSTR: Cannot open TEMP\INI.INI FINDSTR: Cannot open TEMP\INI.INI TEMP\AAO\Entries_Npad2.ini TEMP\AAO\Notepad2.EXE TEMP\AAO\Npad.exe TEMP\AAO\Npad2.inf TEMP\AAO\Npad21.inf 5 File(s) copied does HFSLIP tackle the KBs (fixes) 1st over those in the addon packs (ie, ryanvm's update)? should there be duplicates with the contents of HF folder & those that are in the update pack, which will HFSLIP prioritize or ignore? for the removal files, these would be the add-ons from ryanvm's website too, right? i have attached too some text files for your ref ryanvm.txt is just the .inf file renamed fr RVMUpdatePack2.0.5.cab nliteaddon.txt is simply about some addons i used via nLite for reducing the source (incidentally, nLite just moved these 2 files to i386\svcpack dir as .exe files) ... oh btw, could we use nLite addons too in HF? (i will experiment on this also tonight if i won't be dead tired ) could there be anything i've done wrong that messed things up? i suppose i missed on recompressing the cabs via nLite ... i haven't had this frustration for a very long time ... i will be creating new builds again later ... thanks again! HFSLIP.txt ryanvm.txt nliteaddon.txt

hi! you have to create the folder manually

hi! the header for the the thread shows: Test releases, 60510b but from the very 1st page it shows: Main program: HFSLIP_60517a External files: HFANSWER.zip / HFSPLUG1.zip / DBLBINXP.zip just i bit lost ... but i've aleady downloaded 517a oh btw ... this means we have a little cleaning up to do on some items we have in HFTOOLS dir (i.e., remove xpize.txt & isoconf.txt), right? or would HFSLIP ignore its presence?

thanks Tain! precisely what i've been waiting for since this thread kinda slowed down!

hi apokok! you may try these: NotePad 2 v1.0 by Skitty (http://ryanvm.net/forum/viewtopic.php?t=438) MetaPad v1.0 by Skitty (http://ryanvm.net/forum/viewtopic.php?t=438) please know though that appreplacement may be done purely the HFSLIP way

have already read about this sir the very 1st time i encountered HFSLIP

i will! can i be the 1st to do so? fdv, would there be a way for us to take out ie from XP & replace it totally w/ Firefox? certainly, some apps dependent on it would have probs (or at most cease to work) ... from what i heard though, ie7 would go head on w/ firefox (new tabs included) ... well, at least that's what i know thanks!

sir are we not going to have something like what was posted earlier ... some zipped file which has it all & that we could just extract to HFEXPERT\CODECS?

its cool w/ me ...

ha! ha! well ... i guess it won't hurt if it is there as blank (but no inappropriate file must be placed inside then)
