lepianoman Posted October 23, 2004 Share Posted October 23, 2004 Where on earth is winnt.sif?David Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MHz Posted October 23, 2004 Share Posted October 23, 2004 winnt.sif is a generated file from SetupManager. It is placed into I396 folder to enable setup to receive data from it, instead of you.A link should be in the unattended cd guide on this site for SetupManager.

mazin Posted October 26, 2004 Share Posted October 26, 2004 ..."Royale.theme" couldn't be found...If that was really the reason why it failed, it's out of my control. You should check if your files have already been there.But if the script was causing the problem, then the following script can never fail. Just put it in the same folder where Royale.Theme is.var WshShell = WScript.CreateObject ("WScript.Shell");var path = WScript.ScriptFullName;var DLtr = path.substring(0,2);WshShell.RUN (DLtr + "\\WINDOWS\\Resources\\Themes\\Royale.Theme");WScript.Sleep(5000);WshShell.AppActivate("Display Properties");WScript.Sleep(500);WshShell.SendKeys ("{TAB 2}");WScript.Sleep(500);WshShell.SendKeys ("{ENTER}");WScript.Sleep(10000);If you use this new script, your reg keys should reflect the new location and be as follows:REG ADD %KEY%\070 /VE /D "Applying Royale Theme"REG ADD %KEY%\070 /V 1 /D "%systemroot%\Resources\Themes\royale.js"Let me know if it works. Good luck! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adiel Posted October 27, 2004 Author Share Posted October 27, 2004 ok i'll try the new script , BTW , i've noticed something in the script -"DLTR+" -isn't that a delete command? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mazin Posted October 28, 2004 Share Posted October 28, 2004 In that script, there are two instances of the word DLtr.It's merely a word that refers to drive letter like C: or D: or whatever. You can replace it with any other word.I meant to indicate DriveLetter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adiel Posted October 28, 2004 Author Share Posted October 28, 2004 oh ok . still i get the same error massage but i think i found the problem :my .theme file is using my customized settings , and my OWN modified crystal icons . so that the theme file is trying to load icons that actually don't exist. i'll make a new theme file and check again.

BoardBabe Posted October 28, 2004 Share Posted October 28, 2004 BTW, did anyone try to edit the .msstyle file or know how to? I tried to edit the .msstyle in reshack to change the apperance language, eg. for Large fonts etc.I have Windows in Norwegian and would like it to say "Stor skrift" instead of "Large Fonts", but when i changed this the theme didnt work...Kinda offtopic, but while we're at it... anyone sucsessfully altered this?

oioldman Posted November 1, 2004 Share Posted November 1, 2004 @ToBe,I have just done your method.I'l admit, i didn't create shellstyle.dll as royale.dl_, CD complained it couldn't be found. Click ESC to carryon.It's just finished and i have the roayle theme. Will now re-do with the royale.dll in place, and it should still work.Your a star, and thanks for a simple easy to read quide.

ToBe Posted November 2, 2004 Share Posted November 2, 2004 The guide I wrote was for the 'beta' theme ripped from mce2005 beta. The files available from Microsoft today as the TabletPC 2005 Theme might not work.I've heard some people having issues with the copy process during install. Something about not being a valid microsoft file, and other errors. Don't know why, though. If you use the exe file available on another post of mine in this thread, and install it through svcpack.inf it will work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oioldman Posted November 2, 2004 Share Posted November 2, 2004 Thanks. Those are the erros i do get.Didn't realise your notes were based on a beta version.I'll have a go at changing the txt and dosnet files to not use royale.dl_ as it doesn't appear to be needed anyway.
