DigeratiPrime Posted June 28, 2005 Share Posted June 28, 2005 (edited) I want to confirm that RyanVM's Update Pack v1.2.2 works with MCE 2005. I used nlite to integrate the update pack, and later copied over the WMP9-Less INF's. The last step is you need to replace these 4 files in the I386 directory with the original ones from your MCE cd (for wmp10):DRMV2CLT.DL_WMNETMGR.DL_WMP.DL_WMVCORE.DL_However there are still MCE specific hotfixes that arent included in the Update Pack, such as: Windows XP Media Center Edition 2005 Update Rollup 1 (KB873369)KB888316KB890629Q890760Q895678These can be installed during Windows Setup with RunOnceEx.cmd Edited June 29, 2005 by DigeratiPrime Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
galvanocentric Posted August 8, 2005 Share Posted August 8, 2005 I don't know... Tried your way, my way (no copying or whatnot, just let Windows sort it out ) and still I'm having issues... Can't remember what though so your method probably works fine. I think it was something like WMP 10 not installed correctly. Which is ALWAYS a pain.

DigeratiPrime Posted August 8, 2005 Author Share Posted August 8, 2005 Well i was able to get WMP10 working with ryans update pack and mce. However due to the number of problems ryans pack introduced I'am no longer using it. I feel the updates are over-rated for the most part, and will wait for sp3 before i risk breaking the system.

He doesn't introduce 'em, Microsoft does. Just use the Lite pack, that'll strip things down to just the updates. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DigeratiPrime Posted August 12, 2005 Author Share Posted August 12, 2005 (edited) well i only used the LITE pack, but a certain hotfix (KB885250) causes files and folders to sometimes not appear over a network, with ryanvms update pack there is no way to uninstall the hotfix. see: http://www.msfn.org/board/index.php?showtopic=46308Also there are/have been compatibility programs with Bashrats Driverpacks which i value more then the hotfixes by a wide margin.Furthermore Ryans been distracted and hasnt updated the packs in a while, though i know a new version is in the works. He's actually getting married today! Congrats Ryan!http://www.ryanvm.net/forum/viewtopic.php?t=351 Edited August 12, 2005 by DigeratiPrime Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Real life should always take precedent over us ungrateful louts. Or rather... Grateful louts with a few bad seeds thrown in. RyanVM is a patient, loving cat. I'd be totally unable to put up with the constant "Ryan's betrayed us..." crap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
