Rewatchability is a requirement for any sort of list like this. You can think some movie is the greatest ever but if you can't rewatch it maybe 50 times, then I have to wonder. So of course when i have to make a list like this, I will list the ones I've rewatched the most. 1. Transformers: The Movie 2. Ghostbusters 3. Fight Club 4. Pi 5. Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon 6. Forrest Gump 7. Star Wars: Return of the Jedi 8. Slapshot 9. Rumble In the Bronx 10. Star Trek Generations

It is very common to find these, especially if the price is cheap. Even with fake iPods and Device Jaguars, if your savings are just a few bucks then buy the real thing from somewhere else.

I've used FileZilla before. It seems to be too busy for my purposes.

The restart prompt is usually caused by the drivers. If you have been changing cards in the same PC, you may have remnant files from previous video card installations. However, Windows can be configured with these settings:

I split this out of the forum suggestions thread. I can't get wayback to work with that site and Google translate refuses as well. It certainly looks more like houses than OSes. I'll just remove the entire topic.

The Narrator is disabled by default, but can be enabled by using a key combination. I've done it accidently before.

Thanks. This one works pretty good.

Here's another one with more info, also seemingly to identify who the blogger was. http://www.infoworld.com/t/microsoft-windows/microsoft-uncovers-mole-who-leaked-windows-secrets-wzor-lives-238755

That is the software, however that wikipedia link is for download managers. I will see if there is an ftp client comparison on there somewhere. Ok I did, it is here. Also I think I need FTPS not SFTP (silly acronyms) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ftp_client

I'll just leave this right here...

Looks like it is finally time for me to update my FTP software. I've been using Leechftp for well over 10 years now but it no longer allows me to connect to my FTP site. It is because it does not support FTPS, or that I cannot find any options to enable it. So if anyone is familiar with leechftp could I get recommendations on a similarly (looking I suppose) FTP client that supports connecting to secure servers?

Is UEFI and/or Legacy (CSM) boot enabled on the system?

This is a permissions issue. If UAC is enabled and the mapping is done via an elevated cmd, you will only see the mappings in an elevated program. I've run into this problem before. The problem is due to Explorer.exe not running elevated. See Andre's response to my post here: http://www.msfn.org/board/topic/144776-unable-to-open-an-elevated-windows-explorer-window/?p=1013637

Most people in the US that get those kinds of phone calls are still using a landline. Mobile phones are usually not allowed to be called by those types. http://www.fcc.gov/guides/truth-about-wireless-phones-and-national-do-not-call-list

Giant amoebas seem to be the least scary giant "thing" we have on the earth. Not like giant centipedes!

FirstLogonCommands is in the oobeSystem pass. Put all your commands into a .cmd and then have this in your XML: <FirstLogonCommands> <SynchronousCommand wcm:action="add"> <Order>1</Order> <Description>Run vbs from cmd</Description> <CommandLine>cmd /C start /wait c:\path\FirstLog.cmd</CommandLine> </SynchronousCommand> </FirstLogonCommands>I don't use VBS myself because of security messages. Example of how to put VBS into CMD: cscript c:\path\RunVBS.VBSOr use wscript if you want.

I'm sure there is *something* that can make use of this. I currently have a notebook here that you can put 2x 8 core Xeon CPUs in and it supports hyperthreading. What kind of notebook needs 32 cores?

I would use 1 .cmd file and put all your code in it. You can even send output to a file using > operator to see which specific commands are failing. Then reference your .cmd in the FirstLogonCommands. I presume your scripts work find if you run them manually? For reference, you may be running into a permissions or Session 0 issue. FirstLogonCommands executes as the logon user (Session 1) Setupcomplete.cmd executes as the LOCAL SYSTEM (Session 0)

Not to get into politics, but does that even work anymore? There was a news story some time ago (maybe a month) that drone activity will no longer be reported to the media.

I'd like to highlight something else. We all know MS's original plans never truly worked out because the market rejected them while in process or after the fact. It isn't just the who Metro interface. We knew back when Windows 8 was only rumbled as being Windows Next that there was not supposed to be a 32bit version. The original plan was to have a 64bit, 128bit and ARM versions. This is the entire reason why 32bit Vista and 7 was never made to work properly (or be supported) on UEFI 2.3.1 firmware. Windows 8 32bit, however, was made to work and is supported. Getting people to drop 32bit is nearly a success, because compared to previous offerings (XP) WOW compatibility is pretty good in Windows Vista and 7. There are only three types of customers that wish to hold onto 32bit: 1. They need to run legacy (16-bit) applications. 2. They need to run legacy (32-bit) applications that do not work properly on WOW. 3. They are afraid of the name due to past issues with XP. I often see this similar thing when trying to steer clients to using an Embedded SKU. They won't because they remember having a tough time with XP Embedded. Plus, we can pretty much agree that no one would be buying 128-bit Windows. You could probably say the current 32/64 sales ratio is 25/75%. If the only options would be 64/128bit, the ratio would likely be 99.99999/0.00001% with a large volume decrease. Also consider the current Downgrade cycle, if those OSes were made available, you could only downgrade on the 64-bit SKU. Alright enough of that. So when Windows 8 came out the idea of the "future" was the same. The difference was that 32bit replaced 128bit. Since MS came out wanting to make their own product with the Surface, they initiated an exclusive program to only make the RT OS available to select tablet manufacturers. You can probably remember the stories from around GA about how MS doesn't care about the OEMs and they are hurting them, OEMs rebelling, etc. There's more to that, but it was more people complaining about this exclusive deal in which MS was showing favoritism to certain OD/EMs. It was only supposed to be a year (from GA or RTM, I forget) and then RT was going to be available for anyone to make devices. That didn't happen. Its like the whole wrap-around Taskbar that was talked about at BUILD that you never heard from again. So I am just saying that it could be that MS is going to get WindowsRT out of the exclusive deal and you can potentially see some competition on the market. That is just a guess (or a hope) as I've seen nothing to show that deal is going away. bpalone, you can have your soap box back now.

SLIC shouldn't have anything to do with the disc not allowing installation to continue. I'd expect that it would rather read the model number from the BIOS to determine if the disc is allowed to be used on the system or not. Anyways, for a Windows 7 Recovery DVD... I'm pretty sure you could take the install.wim and put it on a stock Windows 7 install DVD and it could be installed that way.

Try putting your script in FirstLogonCommands instead.

Ha! I worked one of their shows! Unfortunately I did not get to talk to anyone in the band. Melotron - Dein Meister

Oh so I had it backwards! Duh

I am trying to determine how to change a COM port via CMD or other potential methods. I have tried using change port/chgport but it returns to me an error: Unable to create mapping for port COM1. Error Code = 0x2chgport COM1=COM2 This is the /query output: AUX = \DosDevice\COM1COM1 = \Device\Serial0Am I using this command incorrectly? I am logged in directly to the PC, physical not VM.
