djbe Posted November 13, 2004 Posted November 13, 2004 hello,how do i remove the lite version of ryanMV and replace it with the dutch version that can be found in a previous post? (got 1.02 installed from ryanMV, want 1.03 dutch)
RyanVM Posted November 13, 2004 Author Posted November 13, 2004 You should be able to just extract it over top.
djbe Posted November 13, 2004 Posted November 13, 2004 sure? nothing to change? just extract to i386? cool, that was easy...
RyanVM Posted November 13, 2004 Author Posted November 13, 2004 If all he did was change the DLLs and maybe the INF a bit, you shouldn't have any problems extracting over top. The one thing to keep in mind is that he based his release on the Lite pack, which didn't have the different calculator, remote desktop, etc clients, so those English ones will still be on there.
webservices Posted November 14, 2004 Posted November 14, 2004 hi RyanVM,just wondering if you never planned to integrate office update in your Windows XP SP2 Update Pack. Actually, we need to get it from MS office website.Will it cause a probleme due to various version of Office ?Weebs,
RyanVM Posted November 14, 2004 Author Posted November 14, 2004 How exactly would I go about integrating updates for an entirely different product line into Windows??? Maybe you'd like Photoshop updates integrated next? Besides, you can integrate Office updates directly into the install source if you've got an administrative install point of Office.
Acheron Posted November 14, 2004 Posted November 14, 2004 you can slipstream updates for Office 2003 using the following tutorial:http://unattended.msfn.org/xp/office2003_slipstreaming.htmPlease note Microsoft Office is not a program installed standard with Windows XP, so updates to Microsoft Office will not get included in the update pack ever
RyanVM Posted November 14, 2004 Author Posted November 14, 2004 1.0.3 Lite is out now too. Please note that some components were removed from it (since they were English only), so please do not extract it directly over an older Lite CD.
webservices Posted November 14, 2004 Posted November 14, 2004 I was talking about the first time you try to check if there is update availbale for office after a clean installation of XP. It is like the first time you connect to windows update and ask to install an active x to allow update check.But maybe my question is stupid, i was just wondering, cause I though it was the same iway t works for windows update.Weebs,

webservices Posted November 14, 2004 Posted November 14, 2004 ok, so i will try to search a way to get it integrated. I did not find anything in the forum, maybe a old post. I will look further ....Anyway, sorry for having disturbed you RyanVM . I am gonna make me quiet on that threat Weebs,
RyanVM Posted November 17, 2004 Author Posted November 17, 2004 Bump for those who haven't noticed that 1.0.3 Lite is out.
dkreifus Posted November 17, 2004 Posted November 17, 2004 Ryan.. I just wanted to say, Thank you.You're a frickin life saver. As for your deabte on dumping the International packs and such, I honestly think its a good idea. Like you said, you have a lot to do, you're not getting paid for this, and you probably have your own life.I use international stuff, so I'm biased against them or anything, and I don't mean any disrespect to those other international users other than me.Good job Ryan
RyanVM Posted November 17, 2004 Author Posted November 17, 2004 You're a frickin life saver. As for your deabte on dumping the International packs and such, I honestly think its a good idea. Like you said, you have a lot to do, you're not getting paid for this, and you probably have your own life.Thanks Yeah, I'm a full time engineering student, so life is always busy. And yeah, that Paypal donate button my site is very lonely .Ultimately, I think packs made for specific languages is a better way to do this, since it's very difficult to know what files are language-independent and which ones aren't. There's people making Dutch and German versions already, so maybe others will catch on.I still intend to eventually create a page on my website for international versions made by 3rd parties. Eventually
SibTiger Posted November 18, 2004 Posted November 18, 2004 @RyanVM, maybe instead of giving us fish, you could teach us to fish. Would it be hard to write up some instructions for integrating updates the way you do? I could help maintain a Russian version update pack if you tell me how!I like the idea of including links to the foreign language versions. That would be a huge help.
