I don't get this error when I go to look at the new posts (or click that link)

Wouldn't it be funny if you (physically) could get a (real) virus if you stole software from a store?

I gave up on trying to figure that out myself. Then again, Make_PE3 didn't work for me when I tried it anyways. Might have been the hardware I was using tho.

My Windows images deploy to Audit Mode, not to OOBE, but to include Office in the recovery partition it is installed with the OS. Do you create the Windows 7 image too? If you are using OA, you should be consulting your Partner rep to get the supported method of deploying Office 2010.

I have done both preinstall to the image in Audit mode before capture and also install after deployment. It depends on what your install source is, and how you will be activating it I suppose.

The rectangles appear because the program does not have the character support that the original document is using. Either it doesn't support your display font, or the default encoding type does not have information for those particular characters. The website doesn't specify an encoding either, so the PDF plugin likely defaults to an incompatible setting. See if you have the same issue creating PDFs from other websites in german, or using other browsers.

Can you post some of the commands that give these errors? Also what is your OS source you are working with? Is it a stock install.wim or what?

Look up setupcomplete.cmd both here and in the WAIK help guides. Here is an example:

Well they did say they got it cheap. Its either a "you get what you pay for" or "it didn't cost that much so who cares" type of situation.

I can understand part of that story but not about the movie example. I do not know any movie players that will read a video file missing its header information...

The update it appears it is on is KB2482017. Did you run the PE Tools Command Prompt as Administrator?

What about the FSMO objects? When I did a 2003 to 2008 migration, 2008 wouldn't let me more one of the FSMO objects over, so we ended up having to leave the 2003 on the network. It wouldn't let me transfer the Infrastructure FSMO role. Does the "Change the operation master role in AD to the new 2008R2 server." part you posted resolve this issue?

RAM speed doesn't mean anything to Windows (usually) and if both CPUs were MPs then that would make sense. The reason Aero wasn't available likely was because you didn't have the correct video driver installed or the video controller didn't have enough memory or support that feature.

Windows 7 sound manager (by itself) is a little different, and less PnP than previous versions. But we don't know what sound manager you are using. For example, if you are using a Realtek sound chip, you should have that software installed. What is your sound controller?

Oh I see what you are saying. You need to be able to set profiles for mouse settings, and then some way to trigger them. I want to say an "OnFocus" type thing for the mouse controls but that may be taxing for the system... A way to toggle that would be best.

My best bet right now is next time it locks up (since WER does open) to not touch anything and see if it does something instead of just resetting the system. Here are my specs: OS: Windows 7 Professional x86 MB: Intel DQ35JO CPU: Intel Core 2 Quad Q9300 2.5GHz RAM: 4GB DDR2 800 Video (onboard disabled) : nVidia GeForce N220GT 1GB Sound (onboard disabled) : Creative SoundBlaster Audigy Gamer PCI OS HDD: 80GB WD SATA PSU: 460w

I'm still having this problem, so I took my PC into work to have time to look at it and found nothing wrong. There is no pattern to the lockups, but there is a pattern of behaviour prior to and during the lockup. 1. This always happens when running a Mozilla browser on websites both with and without Flash content. Browsers it has done it with: Firefox 3.6, Firefox 4, Pale Moon 3.6, Pale Moon 4. 2. When the computer "locks up" it is actually running. If I wait a couple minutes from doing a hard reset or shutdown, EventLog will log the correct time of shutdown, not the time of supposed lockup. 3. The keyboard stops working first, even if I am not using the keyboard. The mouse cursor will still move around but will eventually stop. 4. The HDD activity light will be active (not solid, not off) during the time of lockup. (NOTE: I haven't waited to see if it unfreezes) 5. By checking event logs, there is a pattern in the SYSTEM log that appears EVERY TIME this happens. Here is an example. EventLog (from after reboot): The previous system shutdown at 9:36:47 PM on 4/5/2011 was unexpected 4/5/2011@9:36:23 Windows Error Reporting Service entered the running state 4/5/2011@9:36:00 Multimedia Class Scheduler service entered the running state Now every lockup I have experience show the WER and MCS services starting less than a minute before the reported shutdown time. Of the 7 times my system has locked up, this has been constant each time. Not sure what that means.

Or the VBS file is in the same location as the app. Or you set an environment variable.

Oh no. If you go into the BIOS and set up the RAID it may not tell you anything. RAID is an advanced feature and most BIOSes are written with the idea that the end-user knows what they are doing. So for example, on the Intel Desktop RST, if you took your drives and decided to go make a RAID1, you'd end up (not technically) erasing both drives.

Right, the only time you would need to remove a driver is if you are switching video controllers. For example, if you were going from an nVidia to an ATI, you would want to remove the nVidia software or vice versa. Otherwise, you can just install the drivers you need to later.

You hadn't posted your OS version. Have you tried to install the mouse software for you mouse?

I'm just a regular poster over there. While I use AutoIT on a daily basis, I rarely have questions to ask so I mainly hang around in the chat section. Also, when I used Projector, I didn't have sound but I hadn't modded WinPE to allow for it either.
