Then I rename winlogon.exe to winlogon.bad, than I copy minlogon.exe to system32\winlogon.exe and reboot my system.

I'm using minlogon 2.0.807.0 from the Embedded System tools on Windows XP SP-2 Professional

I hope I'm allowed to ask this... but where is everyone getting this file from?

I have downloaded the evaluation of Windows Embeded... but I can't seem to find it anywhere.

I hope that it can be downloaded legally, and if this is not the case... I am not asking anyone to post links of course.

Thanks :)

Here you can find all information and download an evaluation version (ca 300 MB)

Have fun with it. Windows XP Embedded is fun to build with, I used it some time ago for my system but you can't install Office 2003 on it.

I see you have already done this. Get PowerArchiver (Fastest compressor tool for Windows) and look in \disk2\Database\WINDOWS EMBEDDED DATA\REPOSITORIES\ for a 130 MB cabfile. This file contains all Embedded system files B)

You can get to the files for my minlogon and ewf hacks just by browsing through the subdirectories under repositories. Just make sure you find the latest versions of the files, because some features are only supported in XPe SP2.

I tried to use another XP cd to install the oem bios and it worked to get it o the part of validation but then it wont register with Microsoft. They kick back an error of can not validate with this key so i have found that i get 30 days then it shuts down and i can do it all over again. So if anyone has a wa around that let us all know.

Since you are talking about the "oembios.bin," and the oembios.bin file falls into my catagory of what I call Goofy Files, I thought I'd show you all this.

(I really love discussing deleting files.)

Goofy Files I Call Them...

In the system32 folder, if you set the Folder View to Arrange Icons By Type you will see a bunch of what I call Goofy Files at the bottom.

They seem relatively harmless compared to DLL and EXE files. Don't be fooled. These Goofy Files are really vexing.

Like all file types, some you can delete without any problems cropping up, with others, you'll get some errors, and still others...well, let's just say you'll be re-installing XP.

One method I use for deleting files...the Layout.ini file within C:\WINDOWS\Prefetch.

You can actually delete any individual system32 file that is not listed in the Layout.ini file and your system will at least get you back to your Desktop after a reboot.

This is not to say you won't be trying to figure out which files will now be giving you certain problems. It just says that you can delete any system32 file that is not listed in the Layout.ini and your system will at least get you back to your Desktop after a reboot.

--------------------The Files I Do Delete--------------------

rsaci.rat <- Belongs to msrating.dll. You can look here for the ratings options: Internet Properties -> Content tab -> under Content Advisor click Enable button.

Hmmm... I don't wish to belittle your efforts chaps, but all this random 'going around deleting files willy-nilly' may be a little hasty. Even if your system continues to boot/perform as normal after removing/renaming the respective files, it does not necessarily mean that it is 'safe' to delete; investigating dependencies and serious stress-testing are arguably a more complete way of doing things...

Take it easy,

James
