    I was just surfing around today and happened upon this site: http://www.asus.co.jp/ If you look at the second flash panel... it has a very familiar artistic style to it. If you find this topic after Asus removes that panel, here is a screenshot: It looks VERY close to how Katamari Damacy/We Love Katamari, etc games look and feel to it. Seeing this opportunity right away, I made a modification of this just for fun: All image editing done with Macromedia Fireworks MX 2004. Total time: ~ 25 minutes.

    I am able to see 27 entries under new content fwiw.

    Look at method 5. This is maybe for another OS but research those keywords if it doesn't work. http://www.petri.co.il/add_command_prompt_here_shortcut_to_windows_explorer.htm

    Just for fun, you could try disabling the Link Layer Topology Mapper and Scanner options in each NIC's properties. If this doesn't make any changes, you can re-enable it. I had to do this on our network if a Vista machine decided to show up, but my network copying issues ceased once I had a Server 2008 Domain Controller because it could respond to the clients with those services enabled. Before having that server, those clients would just keep flooding the network with packets, continually trying to map the network. This might be why Windows 7 has network discovery off by default. Just an idea.

    1. What is the OS you are installing? 2. Are you using an unattend file? 3. Are you booting into Audit or OOBE mode at the end of setup?

    If you got a netbook with Windows 7 Starter, you should have the recovery option. You can see it by pressing F8 during boot. If this also exists, it may complicate your quest, especially if you want to leave that partition and functionality intact.

    Interesting way of doing things.... some sort of comedy... like, I invite someone to my house for dinner. He knocks on the door, I answer and he says "welcome to your house!"

    I actually really like DOS 7.10, I use it on all my USB keys (well just the boot files) as it is required for some NDIS drivers for some reason. Interesting that even Windows 7 uses the Windows 98 boot files when creating a boot disk... Did you try out DOSBox? It can run on XP, and is pretty good at emulating sound and video cards.

    I finally got around to buying a video card! My previous score was with the onboard Intel video from the 965 chipset. My new card is an MSI nVidia N220GT 1GB PCI-E. As to be expected, it changes my WEI score. Here are the new results: Base Score: 4.4 CPU: 4.4 RAM: 4.5 Graphics: 4.9 Gaming Graphics: 6.1 Primary Hard Disk: 5.7

    If you want proper drivers for Server 2008 R2, you probably should get a Server and not a notebook.

    Does the XML file pass validation in WSIM? What errors are you getting?

    With your diskpart script, you still create the System partition, but do not assign it a drive letter. Assign C: to your OS partition. Then run BCDBOOT C:\Windows. How are you currently scripting your install?

    You may want to try running HD diagnostics on it then. What brand of hard drive is it?

    I'm sorry to say, this page is coded very badly! Take this for example starting on line 294: <span id="lblForInternetAuthUsers"><!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN"> <HTML><HEAD> <META http-equiv=Content-Type content="text/html; charset=windows-1257"> <META content="MSHTML 6.00.2900.2838" name=GENERATOR></HEAD> <BODY>Šis puslapis yra skirtas tik vartotojams, sudariusiems sutartį AVMI teritoriniame skyriuje ir autentifikuojantiems vidinėmis EDS priemonėmis. Jeigu esate <A class="linkInText" href="http://deklaravimas.vmi.lt/Bank_Auth.aspx">internetinės bankininkystės vartotojas</A>, prašome jungtis per savo banko sistemą.</BODY></HTML></span> Plus, it looks like the entire page is inside of a FORM element! Who would do this? The form opens on line 19 and ends on line 328. And this is not what you want to see on a page either: <!--<a href="ShowVersion.aspx" target="_blank">Versija</a>--> And to think that this is the server generated code. I bet the real source is even worse!

    Do you mean, so that if the user does not know the password, they cannot boot the system? Most BIOS will have an option to set a boot (and/or BIOS) password that must be entered to gain access to the hard drive.

    I often collect many things, and I've recently decided to move into collecting games as well. The only thing I haven't figured out is what to do with the other stuff I've collected.

    This isn't always the case. See there are exceptions to every rule. I could care less about World of Warcraft!

    A Code 10 return means one of the following: 1. The wrong driver is installed. This can happen if you are like me and like to modify drivers to work with devices they are not written for. 2. The device is disabled in the BIOS, but the BIOS still makes its resources available, thus Windows can detect it. Notorious example: the Webcam on the EEE PC. 3. The device is enabled but there is something physically wrong with it. 4. The device did not fully enumerate at the time of loading the driver for the first time during Windows boot. Basically, Windows will load the driver, but if it does not get a response from the device ( like #2 ) it will show this error. Sometimes you can simply uninstall the device from Device Manager and reboot, and Windows will be able to load the driver properly. 5. The device isn't physically present. Some programs ( you could even do this manually ) can install drivers without those devices even being inside the system. Original driver installers needed to do this to compensate for non-PnP OSes, or systems that had that option disabled. For some reason, some drivers still can install this way. You see these legacy installers in devices that have instructions to say install the driver, shut the PC down and then physically install the device. 6. There is also the possibility that a driver did not unload properly on the system. You MAY be able to see them by showing Hidden Devices. If not, it will show up in Safe Mode. Windows 98 was notorious for this, as it would technically keep all devices installed (only visible in safe mode) and often create duplicates. They would end up goofing up new devices if you tried using them. But the most important question is, do you really need the Firewire to be installed? Will you be using it? You may be able to disable it in the system BIOS and that (hopefully, see #2 ) will make Windows stop seeing it. Personally, I disable anything I'm not using on the system. For me that includes, Parallel, Serial, Firewire, etc.

    This is just a little FYI in case anyone has encountered it. I'm not sure this is even documented. I installed a Windows 7 Pro on a machine yesterday using an AUTOUNATTEND.XML file that is on a USB key. After it was all done, instead of seeing the machine in Audit Mode like it should, it had gone through system, had a user created and all that. Scratching my head I ended up reloading it 2 more times before I found out what the problem was. I also had another file in the root of the key called UNATTEND.XML which was a file I used in a project for SYSPREP! So be careful. Interesting to know, that after the Setup uses the AUTOUNATTEND.XML, during the reboot phase the OS will look for other XML files for the OOBE phase info in it, even if it is not in the main XML file it just used.

    Can you confirm that these files actually exist on the system? How are you using Imagex? Are you booting from a CD or using a PXE WinPE? How much memory is on the client and what size is the volume you are trying to capture?
  22. Tripredacus
    You need to verify that your NIC is covered by this INF. Based on this one I found online, this is only for PCI\VEN_14e4&DEV_1698, but your screenshot says your HwID is DEV_1692.

    By "Administrators" group, do you mean Domain Admins group in Active Directory, or are you using a domain account that is a member of the local Administrators group?
  24. Tripredacus
    Well it doesn't appear you have. Better late than never I suppose!

    Are these Errors accompanied by SACL is going away messages? Can you post the full error by copy and paste out of the command prompt?
