Symbolic links are only available in Vista and later, but allow links across network shares. Hard links (for files) and junctions (for folders) have been available on ntfs since at least win2k, junctions can cross local volumes but hard links only work within a local volume. Hard links can be used to save space if you need the same file stored in more than one folder - e.g. if you were building a "x-in-1" windows install disk. Junctions can be used to redirect folders - this can be useful if you have limited space available on one volume but need a folder to appear there. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NTFS_symbolic_link http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hard_link dfhl duplicate file hard linker http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NTFS_junction_point sysinternals junction

If you're planning to run windows on qemu eventually, why not do that bit first? Seems easier... I'd try virtualbox if qemu is too slow.

Some unofficial versions of mkisofs have a -duplicates-once switch, which might save a little space if your windows install is from plain xp files rather than an image. But 400mb is a lot to cut, unless this is a x-in-1 project. http://www.boot-land.net/forums/index.php?showtopic=7281

If you're using regedit, you need to select the key to "mount" on first - try HKLM.

For the xbox360 you can get a vga cable, no idea about the xbox1. I doubt anyone is going to do your shopping for you though...

A light mist isn't enough, you want to immerse it like a Cray2 for proper cooling. * * MSFN is not responsible if you use water rather than the recommended fluorocarbon coolant.

You'll need to stick to 4 characters for a start. Probably best to follow a guide, start with smaller steps and get things working one bit at a time.

thegreenbow.com vpn client doesn't look free, and the kiwi and memtest links are crossed over. In "Disc mounting" you could add Imdisk http://www.ltr-data.se/opencode.html#ImDisk Thanks for the list.

Are you using ntfs compression?

You could try setting Image File Execution Options on cmd.exe - no idea if it would work though... Running procmon for the whole install might be a better bet.

take goat, go back empty take wolf, bring back goat take cabbage, go back empty take goat 1 hour?

You could disable the pagefile... But rdl_len said nothing about avoiding it, so it's up to him/her.

You could use a virtual machine - set how much ram to allocate to the VM, then test your app on the remaining physical memory. Vmware server lets you prevent the VM from being swapped out, not sure about others.

You could set the victim pc use a dns server running on the other pc, or just edit the hosts file of the victim, if it really is just google you want to avoid.

imgburn - no stripping needed except for the sound effects...

I doubt they'll be interested in helping with a frankenbuild though

I use an (htc) xda orbit, it takes most of a minute to boot, sometimes crashes or becomes unresponsive, and has to be switched on for the alarm to work. And yet, I'd buy another. I can't explain it...

They cut ntbackup, but you can add it back http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details...;displaylang=en

That page was about xp, I don't know if wpa is any different in vista?

If you actually want to monitor files and registry you could use InstallRite. But you might want to consider disk imaging software instead, quicker and cleaner than uninstalling stuff.

You could try Windows memory diagnostics too.

Once you're down to a single DHCP server, also make sure any manual IP addresses that you've set are outside of the DHCP range.

I think we need to see a network diagram, and some IP addresses.

I'd stick with a single path, and don't play with mirroring ports or vlans or any of the other managed switch features until you know what they're for. Pretend it's an unmanaged switch for now
