Ryan, it really is a nice pack to have, breathes a bit of new life into XP

What's included in the hotfix files?

I can't download the files. Other links?

Removed: info about old version

Thanks man. Does this work hand in hand with Ryan's update pack?

Sure, I love your packs so much the least i could do is help .

Oops

comsnap.dll - dosn't have any bitmaps or icons or anything editable

Good news about XPize installer: you can install it silently with the /S switch.

Example:

"XPize v2.5.exe" /S

You could also just rename it without the space, then you wouldn't need the quotes.

Example:

XPize.exe /S

make sure in your unattended file though you're using start /wait

EDIT: Does this mean that we can rid of "classic" XPize packs? Need some testers. Please report your experiences with this method. Thanks

NO! Don't get rid of classic packs ... maybe create a patcher (not installer) for the installation files, this way no more probs with versions, just change the resources of the dlls.

Don't get rid of the classic packs.

1. Increase install time

2. Increase size of cd

3. Increase size of xp when installed

4. Increases time needed to install xp.

5. Forces use of $oem$ folders

I'm inclined to agree that classic packs should remain. Direct integration is very nice and like keytotime said, it allows users to use it without necessarily having an unattended CD.

there is still the orginal files

There towards the end of the first post.

He decide to get a installer cause people @ n e o w i n wanted to install the pack but not reinstall windows

i think the updater needs to be an extra in the "unattended" pack, so users who don't want to use the installer can still be able to update his/her files with the updater
