  1. I upgrade only if I need to, because of a part that happened to have died, or if I bought a game/program that I can't run. I am currently in that boat right now, I am a CPU upgrade away from being able to play ANY new game they sell nowadays. I tried going to the store and my computer can't run anything that is out now. That line crept up real slow and suddenly I'm way behind it seems.
  2. I found my error in winpeshl did not have /s. And no, for programs with switches in winpeshl.ini, you must use a comma and the remainder of the command in quotes. For example, here is my full winpeshl.ini I am working with: [LaunchApps] %SYSTEMDRIVE%\Windows\System32\wpeinit.exe %SYSTEMDRIVE%\Windows\System32\setres.exe, "1024 768 32 1" %SYSTEMDRIVE%\Windows\System32\diskpart.exe, "/s %SYSTEMDRIVE%\Windows\System32\diskpart.txt" %SYSTEMDRIVE%\Progra~1\BurnInTest\bit.exe, "-x -r -c test.bitcfg" This issue is resolved.
  3. I have tried both in winpeshl.ini and startnet.cmd. I have created a text file that sits in system32, but when it executes, it complains that it cannot find the file. Here is the command from winpeshl.ini: %SYSTEMDRIVE%\Windows\System32\diskpart.exe, "/s %SYSTEMDRIVE%\Windows\System32\diskpart.txt" Here it is in startnet.cmd: diskpart /s diskpart.txt It works fine if I manually run it from the command prompt, using the startnet.cmd example.
  4. IMO, Altiris is the most powerful, but it depends on the scale of your operation.
  5. I'm not up to the RC tools yet. We haven't even gotten in any Windows 7 source yet so I'm not too worried right now.
  6. Microsoft doesn't typically sell licensing directly. For the most part you are going to need to find a reseller or purchase a retail copy.
  7. I've forwarded this along so hopefully it will be fixed in an update.
  8. I am going to merge that post back into this one. The two topics too similar.
  9. After you are finished with editing the winpe.wim in the base folder, you rename that to boot.wim and put it in the sources folder.
  10. An important note, in your copype command, you must specify a destination folder that does not already exist.
  11. In Firefox, if you change it to open in new window, a new window will open and quickly close and show a save box. Try that method, otherwise you need to look into the cfg file to see if you can change something in there.
  12. There are a few options for you. Deployment Walkthroughs
  13. If you indeed have a legit install there, you can easily change your CD key. If you right-click on Computer and click Properties, at the bottom should be a link/button to change the CD Key. This is how I activate Server 2008. But honestly, if I were modding Windows that much, I wouldn't be installing any old update it wanted because it may likely undo those changes.
  14. I never figured out that program myself, but I'm not allowed to use it for business anyways.
  15. Welcome to the MSFN! Just so you know, we do not have political topics on this forum.
  16. Once I add a boot image into WDS (I currently have 4 on my test server) how can I set which is the default? When you PXE boot with multiple boot images, you get a menu and a 30 second timeout. Often after replacing or adding new images, this order shifts around. Is there a way to set which order they appear, or say, change the timeout period?
  17. Hey WreX, I am using this method instead: <script>Sub RunAdmin Set objShell = CreateObject("WScript.Shell") objShell.Run "fscommand\admin.exe" On Error Resume Next Set objShell = Nothing End Sub</script> <html><input id=runbutton style="width:153" class="button" type="button" value="Admin Prompt" accessKey="k" name="admin_button" display="none" onClick="RunAdmin"> </html> Using AccessKey. This allows ALT+K to be used to run the function.
  18. The problem is, which ones to register? I've put this project on hold for now, but hope to someday find a solution.
  19. Problem solved. First, changed mode to 16bit from 8bit. Then used the "Save for the Web" option. I'm not sure how I got it to 24bit Bitmap, Photoshop does not let you save in this format for the colors I was using. I ended up using Fireworks to save as the BMP, obviously it doesn't care as much. Hopefully soon you will get to see this image, its not up to me!
  20. The number one cause for a PE to fail to load or operate properly is bad memory. I always run memtest on machines that don't work with the PE as my first step. I have found some motherboards do not like the PE at all, but that was a long time ago.
  21. I have made a PSD that I am trying to save. It saves fine, but the image is not as bright as it is in the PSD format, it is a lot duller. I have tried 24bit BMP (my target format), 32bit BMP and PNG file. They all seem dull or slightly darker than the PSD file. How can I change this? The PSD is 1024x768, RGB/8 if that helps.
  22. I know exactly what you mean. You may want to change your tabbed browsing to have "open links in same tab" instead of new tab.
  23. Mine doesn't have that either, but it does have the product key in there.
  24. Did you try using relative paths? Also you might be better off using an HTML file or an HTA. Check out these forums also: Software Hangout Web Development
