thats always been the case! Older versions of IE copied from Netscape Navigator

Its much easier to make the virtual machine yourself, & then run it in the player anywhere you want!

Hi nightwiz, Yep, I know how it can feel over-whelming! Please read the PINNED FAQ in this section, carefully. If you did not notice it, here's the link - http://www.msfn.org/board/index.php?showtopic=25128 Just for the cdshell part, may I suggest you use EasyBoot instead? cdshell sucks, its too DIFFICULT to understand whats going on, at first glance. Link to homepage of EasyBoot is in linked topic above! Do post back on how your multi-boot DVD goes!

Well, IE7 can be as good as it wants. But it cant get back the market it lost. Mainly because its made only for XPSP2/WS2k3SP1 onwards - older OSes like win98/win2k (& there's plenty of them too!) cant hope to run IE7 & will still stay on firefox.

All you really need is: [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Nico Mak Computing\WinZip\WinIni] "win32_version"="6.3-10.0" "Name1"="YOURNAME" "SN1"="YOUR-SERIAL"and winzip copies the HKLM entries to HKCU, so no need to apply to HKCU as well. owikh84: How to add the *.REG entries to setup? Take a look at the MSFN unattended windows guide to learn (link is at top of this page).

I found an alternative! First download replace.exe from - http://www.bestcode.com/html/findreplace.html Then, put that tool on your CD, & thru a batch-file, add the path to the EXE in the below command: attrib -s -h -r %systemdrive%\boot.ini start /wait PATH-TO-FILE\replace.exe -srcdir %systemdrive% -find "timeout=30" -replace "timeout=0" -fname boot.iniNOTES: The attrib is to strip unnecessary attributes from the file so that it can be edited. The replace.exe utility is not perfect, since it forces file search even when you know exact path, but will do for now - just be prepared to allot 10 seconds for it to finish running. Do inform us about how it goes, if its working now, if you have any other issue, etc.

thanks powercat, topic moved where staff will see it.

Could it be because it needs to be run from a command-line?If so, then executing from setupparams will be something like: cmd.exe /C "bootcfg /Timeout 0" The only suggestion I can think of for now, is:open the CMD & run the command - findstr timeout c:\boot.ini Now to replace that 2nd line thru a batch-file, MUNGE.EXE might help - http://www.ss64.com/nt/munge.html (I haven't looked into writing a script for it, do tell me if worked....)

But the above link to MS site for MUI download, is for SP1! Also, is the above torrent legitimate? If it is not, then please remove it.

Well, I can only give a suggestion: Make a batch-file to run at T-9 stage, which executes these commands: start /wait cmd /K PAUSE exitThat will give you a command prompt which you could then use, to do whatever you like. This will show you the status of the file you want to checkout: notepad c:\boot.ini Or if you want to view how the boot.ini looks at any other point in setup, just press the debug key-combo. [sHIFT+F10] And that will pop-up a command window, execute any batch-file or command you want after that! Do post back your findings!

Yes, its possible.Only thing is, remember that you are faking only version - all else stays as it is, so dont expect it to run as stable as SP2. Here's what you have to do: Go to this key in the registry: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersionWhat you see in the code section below, is what tells the windows version, to any app installing on your PC. Save the below using notepad as a *.REG and apply it, to make your setup appear as an SP2 setup: Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00 [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion] "BuildLab"="2600.xpsp_sp2_rtm.040803-2158" "CSDVersion"="Service Pack 2" Hoping this helps...

spamming on first post.

GRRRRR! What exists is a PREVIEW BUILD of the full BETA2 BUILD. Get it? Beta2 will be like, build 53xx or so. Build 5299 is NOT beta2. Listing that build on the msfn frontpage would lose our credibility.

Any updates, as to the status of this package? Seems a great project jimmsta, keep it up!

Uhmmm.... Beta2 is not yet released! Build 5299 is only a PREVIEW of beta2!

Yeah, all of the tweaks mentioned in first post, are menat to be done by users themselves, or by the organisation deploying it. Use unattended install to integrate your customizations. Use nLite to remove the components you dont want.

No piracy allowed, see forum's rules.

Have you read the introductory FAQ in this section of the forum? That topic is pinned! link - intro FAQ how to make CD more than 700 MB - optimize ISO similar topic here - http://www.msfn.org/board/index.php?showtopic=64996

Bashrat uses the latest nvidia drivers. The latest series (forceware 80) does not support your graphics card. For your TNT2, you need the old 70.xx series instead. details - http://www.nvidia.com/object/81.98_winxp_32_supported.html

It took slightly longer, to resolve IP. (or maybe coz of chitika script access) But after that, eazyshare.com is working like normal. But: msfn.org (frontpage & forum) is still not updated on DNS - I am using it thru the IP address which i took from your MSN status & added to HOSTS file! And the sub-domains also not yet up. I tried pinging msfn.org (without hosts entry), but it comes back saying "host not found". We'll have to wait for the DNS to update.

Yeah, windows normally does make all files fully read/writable - for users logged on with admin privileges. So unless you're logging in with a limited-user account to run apache, you dont even need to bother about the chmod equivalents. And also, if you're running apache as a service, then it runs under the "system" privileges & therefore needs no special permissions to get full read/write over all files.
