FYI to anyone looking at this thread. THis device is an HBA, here is a spec sheet for example: http://www.dell.com/content/products/produ...;l=en&s=bsd I definately have not had any experience with this type of device. Have you already tried to use this device in your PE?

Unclesocks has been transformed from Server 2003 to XP Embedded. It is still 2003 tho. Changed the larger images and start menu item. Also replaced the logon.scr so that the screen saver says Embedded instead of Server. This was difficult because DEP kept reverting to the original version. It took a bit of trickery but I got it to be replaced. It still says Server 2003 during boot and in Computer Properties, but I do not know how to change those. I uploaded some screenshots to show how it looks now. I edited this one to take out a word. I had forgotten that I had previously changed some of the string tables when I was bored a few months back. Next up, installing OPK for Windows 7. Last ISO burn failed to install, now waiting on another one. Also need to check out the new HTA version, haven't gotten a chance for that yet.

How to load? Open Regedit. Then click the [+] next to HKLM. And then highlight HKLM. Click File, and Load Hive. You get to name it, I always give it a name with an underscore, like TEST_SYSTEM or something. Something that stands out. So you navigate to where the registry is kept, C:\WINDOWS\system32\config And your regular registry files are here, they have no file extension, and then old copies are here as well, the have the extension .SAV. So you would choose SYSTEM.SAV, which is the backup of the SYSTEM tree. The other files here you can see have similar names for the other branches of HKLM. This is also where you go if you use the Recovery console to edit the registry offline. Now, your SYSTEM.SAV might not be very large depending on various settings for Windows that prompts it to make backup copies. For example if you didn't make a Last Known Good config. After you are done looking through the Hive, you highlight it on the left side, and then File, Unload Hive. Don't forget to do this part! As with any other time using regedit, all changes are made automatically, there is no save or undo. Back up anything first if you are concerned about working in there. http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc759303.aspx

I have a Windows 98 PC still. Welcome to MSFN.

My favorite, IE5.5 is missing from your list. Also, Maxthon is hardly a browser, more like IE with skin support.

I've only used Virtual PC 2007, but the concepts are similar. The VHD is your "Virtual Hard Drive" or where your VM software saves your session data. When you start, you open your VM program and tell it to use the VHD. Then it should boot up like a computer inside the window, but it won't be able to boot into anything. If you can tell it to read from your real CD drive then you can put an OS install disc in there and install Windows (or whatever) into your VM window. Then it saves that as the VHD file you made earlier. I recommend you use your VM in a window and not full screen until you get used to it. The version you have is from before Connectix was bought by Microsoft. I can't find a website with documentation for this version.

It does not appear there for Server 2003. Unfortunately you can't browse to it but you can launch it from the Run box via: %SystemRoot\Tasks\SchedLgU.txt Obviously if you view the Tasks folder you will only see your tasks. You can also view it by opening the Tasks folder and choose Advanced, and View Log. If you get an error at this point or it is blank then yes there may be an issue with it creating the logfile. You can change the location of where the logfile is kept by modifying this: Key: HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\SchedulingAgent Value: LogPath (REG_SZ) So you can clearly see it if you put it in another folder.

Have you loaded the SYSTEM.SAV Registry Hive to see if you have a backup of the keys you are missing?

I think what the OP is saying is that he wants to make sure it will work before trying to do it, because obviously the HDD isn't crashed yet. I recommend trying out these steps and test it in a VM session to see if it unlocks for you.

I do not know what the Vista Anytime Upgrade cd is. Also, we are more busy during the week than on the weekend.

We have sections about customizing installs and also about customizing how Windows looks. You should find this a good place to learn new things for sure!

It usually depends on the product. I do try to stick with the company that makes the product I am having a problem with. I also use DevShed if I have problems with programming.

Right, he's thinking software support likely. I got to give it to you Starcraftmaster, making that computer last. Its different tho because while I could get the Crysis demo to run on my PC, I didn't bother posting about how to make it better because I knew I was well below spec. But at least you are learning something from these experiences of yours. It reminds me of my olden days of making things work that just "shouldn't" have.

Did you install the software on the client with Add/Remove Programs or the software's own installer? You may get better methods if you use Add/Remove Programs to install. There is a button there to do it.

You may be able to use a volume mounting program that can limit the space of a mount point. I'm not certain about that though. It was my first thought.

The common answer, from searching, seems that you have nLited the same source more than once. We do have an nLite forum here, just scroll further down the forum index and you will find it. Maybe this thread may also help you? http://www.msfn.org/board/index.php?showto...mp;#entry801770

There are certain programs, for example (this has multiple names) Antivirus 2009, will block certain programs from launching. This malware also installs a rootkit, which assists in blocking such programs. You can try to rename the programs that will not open and see if they then open. You can try the latest shareware of MalwareBytes program to remove this, but you also must rename it. And in the future, do not say "will not post unless requested" or else we (myself included) can only guess as to the problem. Please post the version (including Service Pack) of Vista you are using.

Please report the following: 1. How much RAM in the computer 2. Which version of Vista, including Service Pack 3. What speed processor Also make sure you have checked the following: - viruses - spyware - rootkits

Do you really mean "Remote Assistance" and not "Remote Desktop?"

Howdy Doody!

Greetings Assets are always welcome.

I believe b2e.dll is created once your program is run. If you have a readme file included in your download (or on your own website if you have one) you should include this information.

It would definately appear that a setting on the server is limiting you. If you happen to determine what that is, please post it in here also.
