  1. Since we are not your classmates and thus not able to get a grade in your school, we cannot help you with a school project. See our rule: So for these cases we can be helpful by providing links to references only and we can't actually help you do your work. For ASP (or if it is ASP.NET) you can find a easy to understand reference here: http://www.w3schools.com/
  2. Not knowing your how your OS is setup, it is possible that in the PE, the C: drive is the System Reserved partition. That partition is typically "hidden" when booted into the OS proper.
  3. You should make an Unattended install and have it boot into Audit Mode. Install your software then, make sure for all users. Go into device manager and see what drivers you will need to install. Sysprep /generalise and then capture the WIM using DISM. Then you can use DISM to inject the drivers into the image.
  4. Yes, yes we do.
  5. Before I moved from dumb to smart phone, there was some app that could migrate contacts between phones. I don't recall if it was from the manufacturer or the carrier. Either way, it didn't work. The only way to back up the data was to unlock the data ability on the phone, connect it to the PC and use some sort of program that could read the contacts data. I exported that into various formats, including the one I ended up using, CSV file. Since all Android phone typically require a google account, I created a google account. Then I logged into Gmail and imported the CSV file to my Gmail contacts. I may have used a format converter between the export and import, don't remember... So then when I set up the Android phone, you sign in with the google account. Then I sync my Gmail contacts to the Phone, and all my old phone contacts came over. Not an elegant way, but better than the old days of writing them down and re-adding them in manually.
  6. I didn't bothing bringing that up since in the previous posts it is clear that the OP used Diskpart to "clean" the drive. This should reset its drive type right? If it is a GPT disk from the factory, and he runs Clean command, the disk should not be anything right?
  7. Its not all hardware, only the ones that change to the "picture in picture" type of boot display. What happens is that both on the notebook (Realtek NIC) and the intel board (Intel NIC) DB75EN, when you choose to do the PXE boot, it uses some different type of display. I'm guessing the PE doesn't support whatever mode this is and the screen ends up going dark. The boot/loading screen does show up. I noticed there were no pics online to explain this, so I had to take some. Using the boot menu, I can choose IP4 option (and a cool thing is if booting to that fails, you get kicked back to the menu instead of the board trying to boot to the next device) Intel boot menu by Tripredacus, on Flickr These UEFI PXE ROMs change things where instead of displaying F12 as an option, it says press Enter. This "F12" screen is the first screen showing this different video mode. UEFI PXE boot F12 screen by Tripredacus, on Flickr And here you can see what happens after I press Enter. UEFI PXE boot mini screen by Tripredacus, on Flickr After the loading, when you'd expect the PE logo to appear with the loading animation, or even later on when the wallpaper should show up and then the command prompt (startnet.cmd) you never see it. Either you see this last screen but with just a black box inside, OR you just have a totally black screen. NOTE: UEFI boot from CD/DVD is not an issue. Also a previous product, a CZC tablet, that also could do UEFI PXE boot, did not display this behaviour. EDIT: I wanted to note that the successful CZC tablet PXE boot was done to Server 2012 RC, not RTM.
  8. Why did you specify to create an AF partition? You don't need to set an ID on it. Looking at the teardown, we can see that the SSD is infact soldered to the board. http://www.ifixit.com/Teardown/Asus+Zenbook+UX32VD+Teardown/10120/2#s37426 If the diskpart error in fact means the ssd is bad, its a shame it cannot be removed or replaced. I'm doing some other research and it is possible that the SSD is locked? I know you cleaned it. I would recommend using the Windows 7 install DVD and use the CMD.exe in it to attempt to create a partition on the SSD. Also, others have had this problem as well it seems. http://forum.notebookreview.com/asus/679687-ux32vd-issd-not-detected-2.html
  9. How did you luck into that kind of job? Anyways, as it is a kiosk I'm going to say it might end up being a bad idea to post any code samples. I've seen ISVs (the type of company that sells kiosks) use all sorts of different methods. Some use HTML, some use ASP, and some use Zend encrypted PHP. My first recommendation would be to contact the company that handles the kiosk.
  10. Is Windows CE even something that is current? As far as RT goes, you'd need to buy a system with it installed. You can't get that OS version from MSDN or TechNet yet. So you wouldn't be able to test on your own. But as far as RT goes, it is only really designed to run those Modern apps... although I suppose you could end up developing some non-Modern apps that are designed to run on the ARM CPU.

  11. You might need to use Diskpart to make sure that there are no partitions left. There should have been 2 partitions on that disk, one for RapidStart and one for caching. The RapidStart partition may not be visible to you, and will have an ID of 84.
  12. I don't see Microsoft-Windows-Foundation-Package as being a valid component for Windows 8. It isn't in the ADK. The two packages you list are still available in the OS however. See here: http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/hh825549.aspx Here is how to do it with Server 2012: http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/winserver8setup/thread/94b36adf-d4b8-46c9-ad3c-b538b4b3741f Did you try making a test answer file using the Windows 8 catalog and WSIM? Since those packages still exist, I am guessing that it uses a different component.
  13. From the instructions on that page: They apparently do not get installed by default in the place that the DC can use them natively. They need to be moved to the correct location. See how to create and populate the Central Store. Read this link too: http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/winserverGP/thread/56d1d5dc-685c-40a2-a7d1-7ed4b42c61ff
  14. Well it may be confusing to me that you bought an Ultrabook which already had its 7 second boot/resume time certified, but then (pretty much) disabled all the Ultrabook features. Now you have a normal notebook (but with an mSATA drive in addition) and are suffering slow boot/resume times. So I guess do you want to restore the Ultrabook config or to just have a normal notebook?
  15. A strange behaviour that I can't seem to figure out how to fix. On multiple hardware (Clevo, Intel) when I do a PXE Boot via UEFI, after the PE loads the screen goes black. If I boot to the same image using a BIOS-based PXE boot, it works fine. The computers are not locked up and the monitor does not go to sleep. I have no video and no mouse cursor either. Has anyone else done any work with PXE boot to WinPE 4 on UEFI? I am using a 64bit WinPE of course.
  16. The unattended sections are primarily for installation of Windows. The other sections are for use of Windows. Windows 98 is not freeware. I can't speak about the member projects.
  17. Ah ok then... I can't find one that can do both with 1 device. Then again, I wasn't able to find any industrial splitters and I'm sure such a thing exists.
  18. The device you are speaking about is an M-SATA drive. As you posted in another thread, your notebook is this: http://www.asus.com/Notebooks/Superior_Mobility/ASUS_ZENBOOK_UX32VD/ That drive is supposed to have 2 partitions on it, one for RapidStart (partition size match the size of memory) as well as another partition for caching. I have only used mSATA drives that connect via the removable mSATA card, not one that is not-removable.
  19. This is an ultrabook! Your drive type should be set to RAID.
  20. I don't know what this post is about, but SkipRearm is deprecated in Windows 8.
  21. Server 2012 is basically the same as 2008 R2. Just make sure you choose to install the Desktop Experience if you are used to using the GUI in 2008 R2 and previous versions of Server.
  22. There seems to be a lot more converters that support the multiple types of connections for HDMI out, rather than in. The SB-2833 looks like its what you want but I don't think that is Composite. Here is something like this: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B003ZKL9O8?tag=155ldkai-20 But I don't think it is a simultaneous output. What device is the HDMI input from?
  23. I merged these topics. No reason to keep making new threads. Here is the link to that ComputerWorld story. http://www.computerworld.com/s/article/9179109/Microsoft_extends_Windows_XP_downgrade_rights_until_2020

      Why can we not seem to do anything to block this recent flood of spam? It has gotten terrible!

  25. How well did you look? Google gave me a ton of results for "HDMI to VGA" ... Anyways, Monoprice has a bunch of ones (for example) but I've not used any of these types of devices so I couldn't recommend any. Just make sure to check reviews, and also verify the correct connectors (Male/Female) match what you need so you don't make a wasted purchase.
