    MSN Messenger v6.x question

    in Software Hangout

    Posted

    i think you didn't quite understood my question :) I am from Greece correct..

    I am using the English version of Messenger because the Greek translation of all Windows Programs are really BAD!

    When i press the "Launch Site" from a messenger window it displays the Greek menu (MS has given MSN localization settings so that it displays the menu language you currently live).

    So is there any way to change this menu back to the english language?

    Anywhere in your msn settings? Then I'm quite sure will be very complicated...

    install windows xp pro oem

    in Windows XP

    Posted

    I am running windows xp home now!and want to upgrade to windows xp pro oem!

    I want to know if when I install windows xp pro oem will it write over the programs and files  or will it just overwrite the OS?

    If I have to do a clean install is there a way to transfer my programs and files?

    Thank You

    Yes there is:

    start, programs, accesoires, system workset, wizard transfer files and settings

    However, your programs will have to be reinstalled and their settings will probably get lost...

    To re-import your settings: same as above but now choose 'This is the computer where I want to move my settings to'.

    Hope my answer is usefull...

    Unattended xp cd but Media player 8.0

    in Unattended Windows 2000/XP/2003

    Posted

    I've been following the forum and Unattended Xp Introduction page and after burning about 10 cds i finally did it(Don't like using virtual machine it takes longer)

    I've added all the registry tweaks and all the updates were integrated via svcpack.inf and got a problem.Bundled Xp Media Player encounters a problem.When i double-click any media file it gives an error like :

    xxxx file can not be found.Please check network settings be sure that the file is there etc....(When i drag&drop it opens without any problem)

    Then i used gui run once mode which is even better than svcpack.inf but it still goes on.When i don't integrate any update rather than Dx9.0b there is no problem.It seems that it causes an error in xp mp 8.0 and can't be fixed.I integrated MP 9 and seems there is no problem.Everything is fine.Could somebody help me about this issue or anybody who knows how to fix it.I want to use original Xp Mp 8not Mp 9 but it seems that i'm getting used to using mp 9:)

    I would appreciate your help

    Perhaps it's one of the regtweaks?

    And also this: use VMWare, it's much fasters than VirtualPC AND much faster than a real PC AND you don't waste CD-R's!

    Hotfixes For Windows XP Professional SP1

    in Unattended Windows 2000/XP/2003

    Posted

    Does anyone know if you can set the updates folder in the svcpack.inf file to a network drive that will have all the hotfixes.  I want to do this to eliminate creating a new CD everytime new updates come out.

    Also is the same thing possible for the $OEM$ Distribution folder.  Some of the applications that I want it to install will already be on a network drive and are too big to include on 1 CD.

    Thanks

    Perhaps you could define it overhere?

    svcpack.inf

    [SetupData]
    CatalogSubDir="\i386\Update"

    ==>

    [SetupData]
    CatalogSubDir="\\server\hotfixes\"

    just give it a try?

    MSN Messenger v6.x question

    hello ppl. I have MSN Messenger v6.1 in english version. But when i press the Launch Site button the menu is written in my local language..

    Is there any way to display the english menu?

    TIA,

    gonik

    According to your avatar you're from Greece. Greek domain names end with .gr? I guess you'd have to edit you're homepage and set it to www.msn.gr, but it's only a guess, not sure...

    svpack and gosh's reducing source

    in Unattended Windows 2000/XP/2003

    Posted

    I'm confused, can I use svcpack.ini after reducing source with gosh's method?  I dont have dosnet.inf anywhere so I dont know where to add the OptionalSrcDirs...  anyone know?

    Maybe I misunderstand you, but give my explanation a go...

    1. Standard, there is NO dosnet.inf! You have to create it yourself.

    2. However, there IS a dosnet.IN_ ! You have to delete this one, else setup won't use yours!
