  1. If your calculations are correct, this would also mean Windows 9 won't even come out!
  2. Is it intentional humor I see? After "ALOT" of drinking... your default menu choice is to collapse?
  3. TBH, I never even look at those types of things. Do you have an IP address? Can you access the internet?
  4. Let's hope the HOSTS file still works.
  5. It has been pointed out that the Segoe typeface is strikingly similar to what Apple uses. http://imgur.com/rv5E4
  6. Ok thanks. I will definately try each until I find something good. Hopefully they will work in Windows 8 x64!
  7. I do wish DISM was better with the error messages it gives you... It should have pointed out the obvious I see in your post: Image Version: 6.1.7600.16385 Processing 1 of 1 - Adding package Microsoft-Windows-WinPE-LanguagePack-Package~ 31bf3856ad364e35~x86~sv-SE~6.1.7601.17514 But I could have definately missed it if the forum didn't color code it for me! With DISM, it is (typically) just all white text on black background.
  8. All the different OS types (retail, oem, enterprise, embedded) while they can be basically similar, the real differences between them is how they can be used.
  9. User says he is using a 32bit OS. the capabilities of the CPU have nothing to do with whether he can run 16bit instructions or not. I have found that DOS programs do not run very well on their own in Windows 7 x86. In my experience they either malfunction, crash immediately on opening, or spike the CPU to 100%. I would recommend you use an emulator such as DOSBox, or a VM with DOS/Win9x installed in it for these apps.
  10. Certainly! Well I don't always get to make news posts, sometimes I make the "important" ones like nearly-new logos. http://www.msfn.org/_/software/microsoft-rebrands-itself-r8942 Ah but I did not know that it was used once before, so that is "good" to know. On the privacy front, some have found that a part of Windows 8 called SmartScreen will communicate to a Microsoft server everytime you install a program! You can see more information in the comments, especially the part about sending hashes... http://log.nadim.cc/?p=78
  11. All WindowsRE is just WinPE with the Recenv program in it... oh and it uses a winpeshl.ini and setup.exe, etc.

    Yeah the topic title, poll and post content always seemed to be marginally related. Speaking of computers... don't forget also the ZX Spectrum/Timex Sinclair... and maybe that Texas Instruments system?
  13. Most companies will sue just for the heck of it, because you never know. I've heard a similar story from my company's upper management about suing someone for naming rights, even though it wasn't a remotely related product.
  14. Surprising only because that method is extremely deprecated due to security. It is possible to specify a server-side font, but that's HTML 4 and lower. Any website I find that uses something that outdated should be avoided at all costs. Consider what else may be lacking in terms of security.
  15. I get to add a new task into my current software certification list. This is to test for full removal of a product via uninstall. I already know I can use Regshot to see what registry changes are made, but is there a program that shows me what files are changed? Basically I need to verify a complete removal is done when uninstalling.
  16. In IIS, under your website name (or Default Web Site), go to Error Pages. You can then either specify a custom one, or it will tell you where the current one is located. Its an .htm file.
  17. Unfortunately, while you have like 4 or 5 options in the OS for Windows Updates, you only get those 3 options for the Unattend. I'm sure you can choose that one you want (that's what I personally use as well) by using a registry key. Take a look here: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/328010#method3
  18. The re-arm setting is deprecated. I can't find it on TechNet yet, but the ADK says that it was removed from Windows 8, yet to use a different one... which only mentions Vista and Windows 7. Sooooo I actually don't know whether or not you can use it in Windows 8 or not.
  19. Well you can easily test this out by making a change to your 404 page. Then try to hit the site and see if your change is shown, or if you see what you saw before.
  20. "Install" is a relative term. I presume you are referring to Setup.exe. But this makes me wish I had a Pentium 4 lying around to drop an image onto it...
  21. Did you skip IE9? Its the same as that, the right-click is the way. In fact all other browsers I have (Firefox, Palemoon, Chrome) don't have an arrow and use the right-click option to go back history.
  22. I giggle when I ban a spammer while they are in the process of posting.

      Giggle's such a cute word.

      should add non-ascii auto kill, for post that titled (or its content) mostly using high-ascii.

      it should keep the russian spammers at bay.

  23. This file can't be attached to the forum: C:\Windows\Memory.dmp This file can be attached to the forum: C:\Windows\Minidump\082012-32027-01.dmp
  24. Yes... I was highly disappointed after downloading its 1.5GB+ download to find this out. I ended up skipping it altogether.
  25. You are right, this is the normal behaviour, but this app isn't doing that. Normally if I run into this situation, I use ProcMon to show me where it is looking for the file, but since it doesn't show up (even with Advanced Output enabled) I can't just temporarily copy it there. I haven't been successful at creating a Path Variable yet, but I have some other things to try out. Update: I've determined that the PATH variable won't make a difference because the .EXE is not using that to find the file. Even if I put the .sys file in the dirs already specified in PATH, it won't run.
