  1. Well this is because all of the Metro apps are basically tied to your Windows Live account (or whatever it will end up being now that the Live branding is getting phased out) so you can have the same apps no matter what physical computer you end up logging into. So your metro apps are tied directly into your user profile in the cloud (like a roaming profile) and not to the PC. But as far as data goes, I can't see how it would be able to delete physical data on the hard drive... well to be sure I can *imagine* it but I don't think it will be related in that way. While I suspect that soon there will be news of some rogue app that gets pulled, there is a strict process to get an app put in the marketplace. This includes going through an approval process, as well as getting a digital signature among other things.
  2. NO! I've been trying to install this for over 2 hours now. I've tried multiple PCs too. Even one that had Windows 8 Consumer Preview on it. No amount of SATA drivers seem to be working. It appears that RP has even less mass storage support than CP did.
  3. I also only use the frame-by-frame technique. Here are my two most "recent" examples. From a commercial about three people doing a tango. Some forced meme appeared on TFW2005 concerning Megatron dancing, and all sorts of users were coming up with images about that theme. My submission because the "thread win" as I added Dark of the Moon Megatron into the awkward 3 person tango animation. Another was from KLOV where a user had found a mysterious hangar, which became an inside joke there. That user later had his cat die and he had posted a picture of his "cat" haunting his house. I ended up combining the hangar joke into his cat haunting joke with this image:
  4. I do not see this behaviour happening. The Window_OnLoad that is run from browse is only run after a path is selected. I strive to never actually let techs see that Browse box to begin with. Its primarily a sign of trying to use incompatible hardware with the platform. Potentially, you could try changing the Window_Onload in Browse() to use the Reload() sub instead.
  5. You'll need a key eventually, but you can use an answer file and specify the install key. Then Setup should install the appropriate image based on that. Here are some install keys: http://www.cluberti.com/blog/2009/08/11/default-keys-for-vista-and-windows-7-deployment/ Although, there should be a file on the DVD with these in it as well.
  6. This event is telling you that Avira has been denied writing to the registry. A cursory lookup of this message leads to many people having a virus or malware on the system. Try running Malwarebytes or another product to see if it finds anything.
  7. Are you equating Windows 8 to the Sega CD?
  8. Downloading 64bit now. We're running out of purposes for 32bit anything lately...

  11. What are these NS records? Name Server:DOMAIN.IDOTZ.NET Name Server:EXPIRED.IDOTZ.NET nslookup fails on the domain and the name server... at least the first one. Is it possible it was down since April 9 and you didn't notice? That was last time the domain record was updated.
  12. Flags was the first thing I thought of too, but I see it in your XML. And it reminds me of how much Vista XML had changed from Win7. Just to be sure, what OS did your boot.wim come from? Did you try using both an Enterprise or Ultimate boot.wim? Also what arch did you try so far? Oh... your second image doesn't have the same amount of objects as the first. It is missing DisplayName and DisplayDescription at least.
  13. It depends what it is. Did you check the dependencies tab to see if you need to change a different service first? There are some MS services that behave this way. Also, you may find more information in Event Viewer.
  14. The permission errors may have been caused by a program I was running. A curious behaviour found was that the default search order is different. Whereas in Win7 and earlier, Procmon would show that it would search for files in the programDir, root and then System32 (or Syswow64) but in Win8 CP, it only looks at SysWoW64 folder. So the permission problems we had were because a support DLL could not be found in the same folder as the program itself, but copying them to Syswow64 let the program work. I do not know if that is because of a change in Win8 CP or if it is a problem with the program itself.
  15. IMO The Deeper Impressions was a good catch all when it was in the Beta forum, but now that Win8 has its own forum, we can make new individual topics, insteads of just putting them in this catch all thread.
  16. I have seen that list. My first thought about MDOP... what if the virtualized desktop was a Win8 with Metro?
  17. I have stayed away from using straight video in GIFs, mainly because of the size and quality. Another problem you may encounter is most converters end up adding duplicate frames every other one. For a video file like that you need a couple of different tools. One to get the video from Youtube in FLV format. Then another to extract portions of the FLV to some other format. You could probably directly edit the FLV, but if you grab an HQ version, you're talking about a large file size that is going to take up a bit of RAM directly editing it.
  18. That is impossible to tell. You can definately have incompatibilities on some systems. All USB 3 drivers I've encountered use 2 drivers, one for the controller and one for the hub. Rather than putting in a bunch and hope they work, why not find out what hardware the device has, then inject the drivers specifically for it?
  19. I have a complaint about all the talk about how a company would use Windows 8. So far, the only products available so far have been Developer's Preview and Consumer Preview. Consumer Preview is an equivalent release as to the retail/OEM versions of "regular" and Pro versions. There has been no publically released version of Windows 8 Enterprise Beta. Microsoft already doesn't want companies to be using the retail equivalent versions of Windows 7 (Home Premium, Pro, Ultimate) in the Enterprise as they are not licensed as such. We get a lot of customers that buy these wrong versions of Windows for business use, then complain why things can't be done for them. Its because its the wrong SKU. Seeing people complain about how businesses are getting shafted because they see themselves adopting the consumer versions of Windows just shows how some of these writers (and companies) are still living in the past. I do not currently have access Windows 8 Enterprise builds so I can't compare to see how they are different.
  20. You can check the two stickies in this forum. http://www.msfn.org/board/forum/66-programming-c-delphi-vbvbs-cmdbatch-etc/ Most of our batch (or .cmd) topics go in that section.

  22. Hmmm if it helps any, here is some AutoIT code that mentions the Progress tracking ability of the GImagex_COM.dll. Set objWIM = WScript.CreateObject("GImageX.GImageXCtrl", "objWIM_") objWIM.Source = "test.wim" objWIM.Destination = "c:\test" objWIM.ImageIndex = 1 objWIM.Check = TRUE objWIM.Verify = TRUE objWIM.ApplyImage WScript.DisconnectObject objWIM Set objWIM = Nothing Sub objWIM_Progress(Percent, TimeRemaining) WScript.Echo Percent & "% - " & TimeRemaining & " sec(s)" ' Abort the operation by using the line below 'objWim.Abort = TRUE End Sub Sub objWIM_ProgressInfo(Info) WScript.Echo Info End Sub This should look familiar as it looks like Geezery adapted the DLL functions (including example names) to VBScript for this HTA. A user on AutoIT forums have reported his VBScript example works, but the AutoIT one does not. Take a look (although the VBScript example is further up) http://www.autoitscript.com/forum/topic/111922-gimagex-comdll-how-to-manage-events-with-objevent/page__view__findpost__p__784958
  23. Looks like the download is bad. Download it from Microsoft instead of that other website and try again.
  24. Do you not have a password on that account?
  25. Did you try this already? http://blogs.technet.com/b/sbs/archive/2011/07/06/potential-issues-after-installing-sharepoint-foundation-2010-sp1.aspx Are only XP Clients having this problem?
