Look at our Unattend Guide for XP, here you can learn how to install applications with your XP install. http://unattended.msfn.org/unattended.xp/view/web/28/

When you use Windows Setup to install a custom WIM that was sysprepped with an unattend.xml, Setup ignores that XML file in there. So if you are going to use an answer file with Setup, you'll need that info in your XML. The reason being is this: When you run sysprep /unattend, sysprep takes your XML, parses it and saves it as C:\Windows\Panther\Unattend.xml. When you run setup with an autounattend.xml, Setup parses the XML and saves it as C:\Windows\Panther\Unattend.xml. It does not check to see if there is one there already. So anything in your original XML that sysprep put there gets erased.

Isn't the Metro in Win8 already being used in the Windows Phone 7 OS? Its strange that MS is using the Phone 7 design in their current advertising for Windows (Desktop) 7, and then they will use it for their UI in Windows 8? What will their advertising look like for 8? What Windows 9 UI will look like?

That seems a little extreme.

That boot manager screen (with the OS selection) is common to appear after a manual restart of the system. As for why it beeped, I am not sure. I can't recall a notebook ever beeping. Can you post what make and model of the notebook is?

Those two options are on my 2008 R2 DC, however mine has Service Pack 1 installed. Does yours?

While the ellipse layers give a polished or glass type look over the back portion (on each side) of the image, it detracts over the white portions in the middle.

I am working on a project that required me to Ghost a hard drive. We stopped using Ghost on hardware over a year ago, so our Ghost boot keys do not have drivers for newer hardware. I resolved my Ghosting issue by finding an old motherboard that worked, so this is not a great need. However this topic is about a JMicron NIC, which is in the Clevo W150HNQ notebook. First I never heard of a JMicron NIC but that is besides the point. Using the driver downloaded from Clevo's FTP site, it did include an NDIS2 folder, which was what I used to adapt into the Ghost USB key. The unfortunate thing is that the connection speed was unacceptable! So I'm posting this here in case anyone ever runs into this but I had a question. Is the link speed determined by the driver (.dos) file or can it be set by some other means, such as the protocol or system.ini?

As good as documentation can be, it is surprising how lacking it can be. The last time I got to take apart a notebook, I think it was a Compaq also, it seemed to miss a step or two a couple times during the disassembly instructions. I figured it out but after putting it back together I had screws left over.

Unless you can find otherwise, it seems to me that printer settings (much like monitor settings) are based on the particular device installation or INF used, and not something that is controlled by the user profile. You can take a look at the multiple models' registry entries and see if the setting is kept there.

It seems there are a lot of confusion about this device. I found some places: http://forum.huawei.com/jive4/thread.jspa?threadID=331103&tstart=0&orderStr=null They have a regular forum too you can look through where that link comes from. Its annoying, ever page opens in a new tab/window. The link for their "new" forum doesn't seem to work. I haven't heard of this company until just now.

You're ahead of me already. I don't even know what that is! Too lazy to look it up too.

Well you could make an RSS feed for your own site. The only thing your website would need is the aggregator (I think that is the term) and just point it to the feeds of those other sites. Then you'll just need to do some CSS to make it look right. I had made one "once" in ASP, but to get a general understanding of how it works, you can go to school: http://www.w3schools.com/rss/default.asp

I don't know why this would be a Windows problem. Maybe if you mean they should have used some other method of identifying the icon rather than a GUID value that you'd have to go at some lengths to find out. But if you read the MS link I posted, you can tell that documentation is aimed at programmers, rather than us deployment/IT type folks who build images. In my case, I can't even remember what program it was, but I don't recall ever trying to contact whoever wrote the program.

If you have an MSDN account, you can see if it is included in your subscription package. If so, you can download it from there.

You'll want to use those website's RSS feeds. For example, here is one of them: Deutsche Welle RSS Feeds

If it helps in any way, I can try to recall what I did to get it where it is. First, the picture in the background is from a frame in this video: I had downloaded this video and pulled a frame out with various tools. I originally wanted to make an animated GIF with it, but nothing timed out correctly, ie there were too many frames involved. All that my signature is *is* fonts. The top (MSFN) has four sets of fonts layered on top of each other. The "name" is just one font of course. The top has the layer of MSFN in white, under that is the full forum name in a different color. Behind that are one layer of "Barcode" font, and the other layer is a "non-rendering" font. By non-rendering, some fonts do not work in Fireworks, and end up displaying as Squares. I use these "error" fonts too. I likely won't end up using those sigs tho, as my usual default signature is this: Which was made for me a long time ago by one of the many Lio Kaisers that litter the internet. Unfortunately it is too big to use here.

I don't see one myself. But if there is a legal reason why you should be able to save your message, OR have an increased mailbox, you should contact the admin. Companies will usually (hopefully... maybe) try to keep on the good side of any legal argument.

Hmmm I remember that but I never figured it out either. It was a customer request and it came down to not being able to do it. It was a cosmetic request so they decided it was not worth the trouble.

I am guessing that INF is for some sort of tool? What is it for? It definately isn't the JMicron driver. Regarding that, I always just install the driver package using Setup, not the actual driver itself.

Some BT chips need the software (not just the driver) to work properly. Also, the switch on the notebook may not work without its software too.
