  1. I typically am afraid of meeting people from online.
  2. I do not know if it is covered in the WAIK documentation, but it is possible to either do unattended installed via a Distribution Share, or you can unattend Vista and 7 via WDS, or use WinPE via PXE and deploy existing images.
  3. It sounds like you didn't change your screen resolution when you hooked up the new display. Check the specs on it on the website, or a manual and look for the Native Resolution. That is the resolution you should have your screen set to. Or check your display settings and find ones like 1280x1024 or 1600x1200 I think are ones people like to use. The widescreen monitor I have here runs native at 1440x900.

  5. Katamari Robo - I think for my next load onto the iPod its going to be music that isn't in English...
  6. I'm up to a new project at home. I have everything all set up to use the TV Out function on my video card. This was I can do things like watch hockey games on my TV instead of on my computer. Also cheaper that getting TV service, but I'm having some problems. First up, here is my current setup: ATI Radeon X1650 Pro using S-Video out. The card came with an S-Video to Composite (Yellow) adapter. This goes to a Composite cable to a switch box. The switch box goes to the VCR which then connects to the TV using a high-grade (Cable TV) coax. The reason why my VCR is the main interface for the TV is because my TV only has 1 coax in as far as ports. The VCR handles the audio out to my speaker system for the Over-Aid TV box and PS2. The TV is a CRT analog type, made by RCA. I have enabled second Monitor in Windows (oh Its XP Pro x86) and I set to extend monitor to the TV. I get a picture on the TV (I see my wallpaper) but the image flips constantly. I do not have the CCC installed (because its a resource hog) but I just downloaded it and will see if that helps. This is the first time I'm using dual display to a TV so I have no experience in it. Here are some questions: 1. How can I determine what resolution and color depth I am using? Is there some calculation I can use using the TV's screen size? 2. What is causing the flipping video? Is it maybe caused by the VCR? If there is anything else I should know, please post it here. Or if I need to provide more info, feel free to ask. Update: The picture seemed to just fix itself after getting the CCC installed. Also a lot of the problems I was having on the TV has to do with the quality of the cabling I am using. Some of it is really old. So I'm going to stop at a Radio Shack and get a better cable. That is if it isn't ridiculously expensive. Otherwise I'll have to wait to buy one online.
  7. What PE version do you have, and did you add the packages you need? Can you see the drives on the right side? You need the following packages: - HTA - Scripting - WMI - XML
  8. You had the right idea already Defiantx... moving back to x64.
  9. My OS is not listed! I have 2 notebooks running Windows NT Workstation 3.51! They are 486 Compaq Elites.
  10. I have resolved this issue on my own. I cannot go through the steps of resolution, but it turned out the partition type was incorrect. It may be possible that other people may get this error for other reasons, so I'll leave the topic open. Thanks for your input!
  11. Why not inject the driver into your WIM? That way you wouldn't have to worry about Drvload
  12. Juno Reactor - Navras This is from one of the (only) 2 CDs I have that are foil-stamped pre-release copies. The other one I have I don't like very much... Mephisto Odyssey, i kept just because it has Wayne Static on 1 track.
  13. As of PE v2.0, it seems to be pretty fast in the PnP of UFDs.
  14. The computer, after the deployment from WinPE, should be booting as if Syprep was set as /generalize /audit /reboot. So I guess that answers your question. I have not tried to do a hand-load on that particular computer. I can say that the computer failed the memtest at pass 5. Tomorrow I'll get the memory replaced and we'll see what happens then. You know, I really hate this DG45FC board. I've had 3 SRs with Microsoft about it and currently 2 quads with Intel too. Its horrible! I can't wait for it to go EOL.
  15. Dabone, this code works just fine! Good job. Now it appears everything is squared away for this HTA in 64bit.
  16. That looks pretty cool!
  17. It is an OEM PC but it does not have any proprietary components. I will have it run a memtest since right now its just sitting there doing nothing. Andre, I do not have access to the system. It cannot boot into Windows normal or Safe Mode. At first boot, it should be "Setting up your computer for first use" as this is the message you get if you were to, say, Sysprep /audit /generalize /reboot. So that is the state the machine is in at the time of boot.
  18. I haven't had a chance to use the PS3 for the controls. They did make it a whole lot easier to do the charge move from the first to second game. In Katamari Damacy, it was sometimes impossible to do it. We Love Katamari it was a lot easier. This PS3 version does have one good feature, which is the ability to jump with the Katamari, instead of just the operator jumping. I wish I had that feature. IDK if the other additions, such as the Cell Shading or WoodGrainGraphics (I haven't seen this mode yet) are worth it. Likely not the music, as its all just remixes from the first 2 games. But I'm not in a position to even think about a PS3 yet lol.
  19. Do you have any USB devices plugged in, or maybe one of those floppy drives with card readers in it?
  20. Have you tried more than one browser?
  21. Here we go! Looks to be the first Windows 7 topic about this dreaded error. This happens at boot up on one board only. It works fine on about 5 other configs I have tried it on. Now this is being deployed from Win PE and I can't post the script I use. Knowing that in the past, this error generally means either a hardware problem on the client, or a delivery method problem (bad/scratched optical media) I attempted a reimage but the results are the same. The first thing that comes up is "Autochk program not found - skipping Autocheck" As far as I can tell the image deployed properly. Also, I can put XP or Vista on it instead and that works fine. If you don't know this legendary error, here is the full thing: Here is the config it is happening on: Intel DG45FC (with BIOS v0087*) 2GB DDR2-667 (PC2-5300, 2x1GB) E5200 2.5GHz CPU 160GB Toshiba Mobile SATA 300 5400RPM Any ideas would be keen! *This BIOS version is the latest stable version for the DG45FC. The DG45FC and DG45ID use the same BIOS. The latest version I have tried, v0113, works fine on the DG45ID, but on the FC board it breaks the PXE ROM. All versions after v0087 break the PXE ROM, which effectively means that it gets the Boot ROM via TFTP from the PXE Server, but does not give you the F12 option to boot to the network.
  22. Actually, its been possible to use Panda for free for the past 5+ years, or whenever it came out. I used to use it, but in recent years it occupies way too many processes and takes up too much memory.
  23. IIRC, back in the day, ART files couldn't be seen in IE. They only showed up in Netscape Navigator or Communicator.
  24. The purpose of Sysprep is to prepare the computer for the end-user. It is an OEM tool. See when OEM installs Windows onto a computer the first time, it boots up into Audit mode. They make whatever changes and then use Sysprep. This is so when the computer is bought or delivered to the customer, they can set up their username, time zone, etc.
