  1. This isn't the first time we have had someone ask about Zoostorm WinRE partitions. Start here:
  2. Did you spill something on it? Try to use the keyboard on another computer?
  3. Well the simplest way to do it is very similar to what is being done now. You will have 1 PC with the files on it. Since you are running in a workgroup, its a nice idea to have different accounts to limit what systems can get into the share... but are all these computers in the same office? What is to stop your users from sharing these accounts and passwords? I'm not sure how to add computers as permissions in a workgroup setting... although you could add that PC's user account. Either way, you haven't posted an OS. I imagine you don't have this file server built yet. What is your budget on it? Do you think that Small Business Server 2011 would be a fit?
  4. Do you want to: 1. Add a command to a captured windows image 2. Add a command to a created Windows DVD? Also, what WinPE version do you use?
  5. Does your XML validate in WSIM?
  6. Have you tried re-activating Office after an install? What version of Office are you using?
  7. E Nomine - die Sintflut http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9qvsghYVpEA
  8. What is the reason to uninstall IE9? You can just ignore it and set Chrome to be your default browser.
  9. Fear Factory - Cloning Technology (Replica)
  10. Is it possible that all the files not being copied have long filenames?
  11. Many of our users will be sad/angry to read this. I see you've been using nLite for quite a while now and no one would jump to a conclusion and think maybe your use to nLite was related to your recent question about pushing out a Flash update via GPO for your customer.... By now you must have encountered the many threads in the nLite forum that talk about its EULA.
  12. I bet your name is Michael...
  13. Barehanded - Puntarska
  14. The forum is designed to track topics and posts. If you've made neither it won't remember. You can find your own posts in your profile. If you want to "bookmark" certain topics, you can use the Watch Topic button at the top of each one. I do this to "remember" certain topics that I find I may need to reference often, for the help of forum users or personal reasons.
  15. For your own personal use, it shouldn't be a problem really. You can try putting your driver files (INF based) in the INF folder. I had to do this recently using XPe for some weird USB device.
  16. I would think you'd want to disable Aero, to save the CPU from having to deal with transparencies and whatever else. I'd imagine if you had a PC with at least 4GB RAM and a 64bit OS and at least a dual-core CPU, you'd have no problems with speed. I presume you are doing work with Flash since that's the only web design program I can think that would be resource heavy enough to consider these drastic alterations to Windows.
  17. I don't think flattening the layers removes any of that data.
  18. Which WinPE are you using? This was for WinPE 3.0 which didn't have wireless support. In the WAIK for Windows 7 SP1 you can get the WinPE 3.1 which has native support for wireless. I haven't gotten around to trying it yet tho.
  19. Why would you enable sleep or hibernate on a Server OS? Especially if you have a RAID array... I wouldn't do that... ever.
  20. We have another section for customizing Windows: http://www.msfn.org/board/forum/40-customizing-windows/ It would be a better place to ask about where the correct animation is that you are looking for, and how to put it in your install.
  21. This must be the link you mean! http://support.microsoft.com/lifecycle/?c2=11732 Breakdowns of the different support policies are here: http://support.microsoft.com/gp/lifepolicy It would appear that Vista Home Premium is not covered under the extended support lifecycle: http://support.microsoft.com/lifecycle/?p1=11712 But its still likely that you'd get new updates, as you'd know Ultimate, Business and HP all share updates. I can't imagine that they would make an update for Business and not let it work on HP. As far as the differences, I think that Business is just Home Premium without Media Center.
  22. Its not deceptive really, but Apple's OS sales are in the retail space because I'm fairly certain that is the only channel they are in. Their OS can be bought on a PC they make, or the retail box at the store. A Microsoft OS can come in retail box, distribution (OEM/SB), Open (Education) license, MSDN/Technet subscription, royalty OEM, etc. So yes the numbers comparison is Retail Channel (Apple) vs all channels (Microsoft) but there is nothing to stop Apple from going into those other areas. Anyways, I'm not sold on the "XP calls home" stuff. I don't think that is true at all. The only times I've seen XP validate itself is: - Installation/activation + grace period - installing new WGA version - MSSE or Malicious Software Removal Tool update/installation - MS direct download validation I've had XP PCs off a network for years and it doesn't ever one day just become "You may be a victim of software piracy" just like that.
  23. Go into C:\Windows\Fonts. Right-click on the font you want to remove and choose "Delete."
  24. I get it. Those ports 21-23 are destination ports. Blocking them would stop users from accepting connections for those protocols. For example, for FTP, if you block port 21, if an FTP server is being run on the machine, other systems won't be able to connect to it. If you want to stop users from sending files from that PC to an FTP server, you'd need to block ports 6000 and 6001. As for the other protocols, you'll need to look those up to find what outbound ports they use.
