I don't completly agree with you: the itanium isn't supported by XP x86. Also if you install win 3.11 on dual core or better you won't get all the benefits of the dual core architecture. Ok then, find me a motherboard that uses an Itanium CPU that has XP support...

Windows 7 support and Vista support is very similar. For example, I've never actually used Vista outside of Audit mode, but used Windows 7 quite a bit. I find I was able to get my Vista certification (it was free to take the test, why not) and passed it with flying colors. Learn Windows 7 and you'll basically know Vista. Only thing you need to know about Vista is the book smart type stuff, like what editions can do what and upgrade paths.

I always thought XP was an emote... xP

I'm not sure why I used this rom instead of the regular one. It was a long time ago, maybe the same problems you are experiencing?

I put a link to this thread in the Win PE FAQ thread that is stickied.

Try using: \boot\x86\wdsnbp.com which was what I used for WDS/PXE on Server 2003. 2008 is much easier to use since I migrated over, but my old 2003 guide is here if it helps any:

Yes, it also can't test sound. I tried awhile back to get DirectX to work on WinPE for BIT to use, the thread is around here somewhere. Anyways, about the manual, is there basically no extra steps that needed to be taken to get BIT to work in WinPE 3.0 as compared to v2.x? That was my only question.

When I made my own CMS, my login page submitted info to itself. If it passed, it would redirect to a user welcome page. If login failed, it would redirect to a failed page. I made this in 2005, but if I would redo it, I would definately use AJAX so I could do everything with just 1 page. Of course, all form fields used a validator include, and all pages had a sentry include that checked session info and user rights levels. I don't know if it would help you much, I did it in PHP.

1. Intel e1e6032.inf e1g6032.inf 2. The Diskpart List Disk would not have show any disks as present. Is there a reason why you injected both of those? I don't think I've ever used the g version. Try taking the G out and just use the e instead.

You can try adding QTTASK.EXE into the AppLocker and disallow it to be run. I do not know if that would effect using QuickTime to play videos or not.

I have checked the compatibility, it is a Rev B1 and drivers are available. However, I was not able to get the USB drivers to work. I am using Win98 FE and any time I try to install the USB Drivers I get a BSOD. I will see about bringing a CD home from work. I've had USB working on this OS previously, but as noted it was with a different motherboard. I also had used Win98 SE USB files to get USB 2.0 to work. I have finally put Shiva where it will go. I still do not have a monitor for it yet so I used my trickery. Shiva is now a member of a (probably) insane setup. Here is the hook up: Shiva S-Video to AV switch box. Audio from green out on sound card (configured to run in 2 channel) to AV Switch box. AV Switch box (4 inputs, 1 out): Input1: DTV Satellite Receiver (Composite) Input2: PS2 (Composite) Input3: Shive (Composite Audio + S-Video) Input4: empty Output: VCR! Yes output everything to VCR, which can also play tapes still. VCR out to 4 channel (heavily modified by me) sound system. Video out to television. So Shiva actually displays to a TV, through a VCR. Maybe not the ideal setup, but it connects that way because the VCR handles all audio from all the components. When I get a monitor, I will use the TV as a second display. Also, because of the age of the TV, I can't read anything on the screen unless I set resolution to 640x480! I tested audio with Winamp (sound is better than from any other input) and some games. Return to Castle Wolfenstein and Diablo played, but Carmageddon 2 did not seem to like S-Video. Current task list: 1. Get USB installed 2. Playing movies problem! 3. Test out transparency OK weird issue about playing movies. I tried only playing movies in Winamp, did not try Divx or WMPC yet. But the videos play fine, no artifacts, sounds good but... they play UPSIDE DOWN! What can cause videos to play upside down? I've never seen this before, no idea where to start... EDIT: forgot to say I wanted to test out how well transparency works with the new hardware. I added that to #3.

The CPU itself isn't really where you want to focus on whether or not it is XP compatible. You want to see if the motherboard you have, or want to use, is compatible with XP, ie there are XP drivers available for it on the manufacturer's website. As an example. XP is supported on all Intel Desktop and Workstation boards currently available that support an i3 processor.

I wasn't sure about mentioning a program. My web server that runs Apache was installed with the XAMPP package. Also very simple. The only thing I had to do (besides creating logins) was change the port in the Apache files so it did not interfere with IIS. It was a 5 minute install, very simple. So with this WebPI you can run PHP on the same port as IIS?

I'm not sure if I am understanding you properly, but I can think of two things. 1. You can try pressing the Fn key + the F key with the trackpad picture with the X on it. Most notebooks give the ability to turn the trackpad off. I do this on my netbook because I like to use a mouse. 2. There may be software required in order for your trackpad to work properly in Windows. There can be both drivers or a helper program that allows you to use the extra buttons. Check the website to see if there is any new or missing drivers and software you may need to work your trackpad.

Welcome to the MSFN! Make sure to check out our rules. First thing you need to slim down that signature.

Today is the day! I will boot it up and attempt to get USB working. Once that is done, I will also try to get the internet going. I found a USB wireless "card". It is a D-Link DWL-G122 and there are Windows 98 drivers on the website. I hope that means that there are some on the CD it came with. But obviously if I get USB working, I won't have to worry about whether or not there are drivers on CDs in order to install them.

It would actually be VERY easy to do this, you wouldn't need anything besides the WAIK to do it. Once you realise the only thing about WinRE is it is a program that runs in WinPE you can put that program in your own WinPE. Unfortunately, I wouldn't be able to tell you anything more than that, but that little clue should be enough.

Right, Windows Home Server (its actually a modified Server 2003) is designed to run headless. Kind of like a super-NAS. More higher-end OSes may be Storage Server 2008 or SS2008 Embedded, but like WHS, they aren't designed to be used as a workstation. If you want to be looking at OSes that are going to be more PHP friendly, you may look at Server 2008 Web Standard. But honestly, I've yet to find any Microsoft OS (Server or otherwise) that is PHP friendly. IIS is such a pain to work with PHP (especially if you want .NET and PHP at the same time) and in my experience its just easier to use IIS for .NET and then use Apache (on different ports and DNS alias) for PHP on the same Server. However there may be a good way to do it, but I haven't been able to find it.

This script should get rid of both partitions. However I have seen diskpart act up before. Can you post the results of the following commands PRIOR to running the clean? list disk list vol sel disk 0 detail disk list part Oh also, if you run clean again does the second partition go away then? Also, lastly, if you use diskpart manually can you reproduce the same results? Moving to WinPE forum.

1. What is the name of the INF file you injected? 2. What is the output from diskpart LIST DISK?

Holy cow, I wish it was unlimited, that would be awesome!

In case anybody here is trying to do the same thing, I forgot to mention one thing; I needed to copy over "msvfw32.dll" from my workstation's Windows\System32 folder into the PE System32 folder. That's the only thing needed to get BIT Pro v6.0 working in PE3. Actually, if you look at the documentation for BIT on WinPE, you will note it is only for WinPE 2.x. Also if you look on page 2 of the manual, you will see a familiar name. If you find any differences between those instructions and how things are done with WinPE 3.0 (ie not using any third party apps like Make_PE, etc) I can get Passmark to update that guide.

I once tried Parachat, it looks like the newest version supports voice. They have more information that the link you posted, which means probably easier to get help if you try using it.

I was going to suggest ISA. SBS requires a domain, so if you aren't using one you don't want to go that route.

Oh I've never used any VMs for WDS, I use physical clients. I'm sure there is a difference.
