I had recently found a forum I had registered on and hadn't logged in for 10 years!

You have a similar topic already here: http://www.msfn.org/board/topic/172825-changing-the-name-and-description-of-the-volume-images/ Is it the same question?

We can only help if you are using a legit version of Windows XP.

Make sure you read the forum rules!

Sorry, it seems you are using a volume license key and an activation crack on this OS. We can't help you with illegal versions of Windows.

It is doubtful that the HTML errors are causing the page to appear blank, with the only possibility (that I can see) is the extra dive tag that is there. Even so, even an extra div tag would likely cause a partial page load, or the page design to become deformed our outside their intended boundries. Most times I have found coming across a blank page (that shouldn't be) is because I am blocking some javascript. I can do a test allow to see if it works (usually does) however then it becomes a "do I trust it or care enough about this page to allow malformed code to run on my system." And guess what, usually I just go somewhere else.

My only real complaint so far, is that the power button on the Start Menu is now at the top, rather than the bottom WHERE IT HAD BEEN SINCE FOREVER. Actually, in my first use of the TP, I needed to reboot so I could reimage, and I found that the Charms thing on the right didn't work like in Win8. Then I remember, "Oh Yeah! Start Menu!" which became "How do I reboot?"

This seems to still be missed by people online. XP support has ended but that doesn't mean you stop seeing new updates offered by Windows Updates for non-OS products. This includes the Malicious Software Removal Tool, Office or whatever else.

I would have settled for Windows 8.1.1 for Workgroups.

I doubt switching would make a difference. It would only be a matter of time before you see ads on all the internet connected consoles.

I would blame the web devlopers. Older browsers are not as forgiving of coding errors than newer browsers. Websites are also trending to using off-site scripts to render portions of the page. On the one you linked to, there are several iframes and even an extra /div tag sitting there. The site uses a "generic" doctype, which Validator is picking up to be HTML5. It also finds over 3,000 CSS errors. Any one of those reasons could cause the page to not display properly in a browser. As for how to fix, use a browser that renders broken website code!

Welcome to the MSFN!

Yes/no/maybe? 1GB RAM may be a problem out of the box.

Try putting the command into a .cmd and then run the .cmd from FirstLogonCommands.

Certainly, but websites aren't reading winver, they rely on the User Agent provided by the browser to determine what OS the client is.

Split topic. OT: Is this error coming directly from DISM? For DISM, error 87 is "option unknown" which occurs when you use the wrong version of DISM to run a specific command.

You'd have to verify using some sort of network monitoring tool, but I suspect the games are going out through Ports 80 or 443.

Has there been any proof that it is actually performing keylogging?

Needing/wanting to run 64bit applications would be the only reason why I personally would use a 64bit OS on a system with 4GB or less RAM.

Ah see this is an example of personal preference. I have another point of view as I have PCs I use daily that both have Aero enabled and disabled. There is no real difference to me other than one just looks better than the other. Now, it is true that the one I have it disabled on is due to the video card not fully supporting it, and I would likely have it enabled if I were to install a newer video card.

The Downgrade Rights Program has the same (end user) rules for OEM, VLK or Retail channels.

Yes the reason for those prices is due to weight. It would probably be better to piecemeal a system if ordering stuff from online to cut down on shipping price.

Well... since they got hooked up to the internet. Is there similar things happening with the PS3 and PS4 dashboards?

Yes. 32bit Windows and 64bit Windows are quite different.

"To some" I had to put in the end. I personally wouldn't have minded if Windows 10 still looked like XP as long as it worked properly. Even the Aero system added into Vista is just some eye candy.
