  1. A driver problem in the parking garage!
  2. I wouldn't be surprised! I see it occasionally from various manufacturers. Even the more confusing cases where newer BIOS has lower version number than older BIOS release. It could also be caused by a hardware revision. Very frustrating.
  3. If the download is from DigitalRiver, then it is a legit ISO.
  4. People can make their own choice about what software they want to use. I can have my own preferences about things, but that doesn't mean I think it would be a waste of time if someone else were to look at alternatives.
  5. Whatever is chosen, verify it doesn't already exist. wLite.exe is a thing already, some webcam software.
  6. You can purchase either Retail or OEM System Builder Kit Windows software from large online retailers like Amazon or Newegg, although there are others. Official Microsoft resellers may also offer this OS for sale. Both Home Premium and Ultimate have reached EOS (End of Sale) so any media left in the market are all that there is. Once it dries up, it will only be in the secondary (used) market as used or NOS product. Also, make sure you really want Ultimate. Go through the feature comparison to verify you actually NEED the things Ultimate does. You might just be fine with Pro or Home Premium. http://winsupersite.com/article/windows-7/windows-7-product-editions-a-comparison-128684 The Office in that link does not specify (unless I missed it) if that is the FPP (Fully Packaged Product) or PKC (Product Key Card) version. Just because of that, if I were to want to purchase Office 2013, I wouldn't from that site because I would be uncertain of what I would be receiving. Plus I never heard of the website, which doesn't help. Like the Windows OS, you can get Office from major online retailers.
  7. Well, what are your software requirements? I doubt you are going to just install Windows 7 and nothing else. Basically if you are using 64bit, your minimum RAM level is 4GB.
  8. The other topics have been removed. Op, you may want to consider hosting the file on a site in English and one that is more well known/trusted and/or doesn't require enabling of javascript to download.
  9. That black rectangle with the non-genuine message was inserted into that warez authors, for whatever reason. We won't discuss it in specific terms, but Kel has already given a hint. Although, it may be possible that the Rt7lite you have is not a clean or original source.
  10. IMO, the only real benefit for UEFI mode is you can boot a 2.2TB+ disk. Also, IMO, having the OS on such a large drive is a waste because I'd rather not keep my stuff on the same disk as the OS.
  11. Yeah, I suspect on the more limited BIOSes, that the Windows 8 option enables everything that Windows 8 needs/wants/works with. I certainly have seen some where you can enable Windows 8 and there is no options for Secure Boot or Rapid Start or what-have-you.
  12. It seems, based on the screenshot, this "amazing tool" might actually be closer to "amazing warez" ... vsUK, you should look into using MDT, which you can use to create unattended installation from DVD or USB.
  13. I have run into this as well. It isn't specifically locked to "Windows 8" but it just uses that wording. They use terms Windows 8 instead of UEFI boot and Windows 7 (or Other OS) for Legacy boot. I've even seen one where UEFI mode is enabled, legacy is disabled and 64bit is disabled.
  14. One reason to get that error on MSE is if you have another antivirus software installed. This includes Windows Defender. If you have Windows Defender also, uninstall it, reboot and try to enable the real time protection. Take a look see here: http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/protect/forum/mse-protect_start/real-time-protection-will-not-turn-on-getting/02df6379-a30d-49f7-8e7f-cd987ef9ad48
  15. Windows operating systems are not redistributable. These topics for nLite are to help those who use the program, and no where is there an offer to create a custom Windows installation for other people to download or share.
  16. HA! That was my first reponse... see post #241. I confirm the Find Links button on a profile goes to the "Oops" message. I can't see mine nor yours... Although I'm not sure what that button is SUPPOSED to do either. It may not be implemented. The only other IPB forum I am on that has that button is Reboot, and it just goes to a page that says "no links."
  17. Ah. In your profile, on the left menu there is a likes button. I went to yours and click it and can see where your likes are from. You can also see what posts you have liked.
  18. It looks like you have 2 sort option on top to filter your results, All and Unread. Have you tried clicking both of them?
  19. I have gotten it to install now. There are multiple versions (I guess) of this 840m driver I had to try. The one I was using in the above post was labelled as Win7/8.1 driver v332.38 and I had another one that just said Windows 7 with the same version. Apparently, there is a driver signature issue in the one for Win8.1 that was causing rundll32.exe to balk at trying to install the INF and causing the installation to fail. Using the one for Win7 has the same problem. The difference is that this one opens a prompt to install an unsigned driver, which I've encountered before with touchpad software. Moving this topic to Drivers forum.
  20. Likes? Links? I can't use the Find Links button on your profile. Or mine. :\
  21. At least five.... No good picture of many free bananas... Back to topic, -X- seems to like a particular one, posted in similar topic: http://www.msfn.org/board/topic/159602-looking-for-a-live-chat-feature-for-my-site/
  22. It would appear it is available 8.1 but NOT 8.0: http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ff715708.aspx
  23. I've been trying to install the nVidia GeForce 840m (mobile) driver and it is not working as expected. I typically will launch driver installation from an exe that is in the Startup folder. The drivers will fail to install in this way. All other nVidia mobile drivers work fine on other system. If I manually run the installation or run it via CMD, it works. Windows 7 Pro SP1 x64 in Audit Mode. I have tried the following launch methods: RunWait (@ComSpec & " /c c:\temp\g840m\64\setup.exe -s -i -noreboot -noeula")RunWait (@ComSpec & " /c c:\temp\g840m\64\setup.exe -s -i -noreboot -noeula", "c:\temp\g840m\64")The second one is a newer implementation that sets the working directory. 700 series and older did not need it, but the driver for the 860m requires it to be able to install. Using either of those commands results in the software not installing and the following errors.Event Viewer: Fault bucket , type 0Event Name: PnPDriverImportErrorResponse: Not availableCab Id: 0Problem signature:P1: x64P2: 0000001EP3: nvqu.infP4: 3e8d117273af480cdcf6ebb68dba29853ae41c19P5: P6: P7: P8: P9: P10: Attached files:C:\Users\Administrator\AppData\Local\Temp\DMI3BE6.tmp.log.xmlC:\Users\Administrator\AppData\Local\Temp\LOG3F03.tmpc:\program files\nvidia corporation\installer2\display.driver.{0000bb89-2cd4-4cd4-bd0e-a8b19e8383a5}\nvqu.infThese files may be available here:C:\Users\Administrator\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows\WER\ReportQueue\NonCritical_x64_126c3610fd693f59bf2b5daeb553ab6cac92c05e_cab_08623f50Analysis symbol: Rechecking for solution: 0Report Id: 1431dc3f-0d7d-11e4-94e1-0c8bfd9bb927Report Status: 4Error from LOG3F03.tmp: flq: {_commit_copyfile}!!! flq: Error installing file (0x0000001e)!!! flq: Error 30: The system cannot read from the specified device.! flq: SourceFile - 'c:\program files\nvidia corporation\installer2\display.driver.{0000bb89-2cd4-4cd4-bd0e-a8b19e8383a5}\nvcompiler.dl_' flq: TempFile - 'C:\Users\Administrator\AppData\Local\Temp\{10e4e57e-ac91-31bb-9a91-ec5ea646107a}\SET334D.tmp'! flq: TargetFile - 'C:\Users\Administrator\AppData\Local\Temp\{10e4e57e-ac91-31bb-9a91-ec5ea646107a}\nvcompiler.dll' flq: {SPFQNOTIFY_COPYERROR}!!! sto: Failed to copy file 'c:\program files\nvidia corporation\installer2\display.driver.{0000bb89-2cd4-4cd4-bd0e-a8b19e8383a5}\nvcompiler.dl_' to 'C:\Users\Administrator\AppData\Local\Temp\{10e4e57e-ac91-31bb-9a91-ec5ea646107a}\nvcompiler.dll'.

I searched for this problem online but no similar circumstance was available.Any ideas?
  24. I wouldn't want the main chassis fan blowing into the PC. The only way the OP possibly could switch the fan to blow towards the front is if there are at least 2 fans pushing that air out. The other problem is that people typically will have HDDs at the front, you might not want heated air from the CPU going over those before exiting the chassis.
