beta 2.5 will be using nlite 1.0 rc2 last_session.ini's now.

cause its just alot more, i say, with a new ryanvm 2.0, this is very good stuff. along with that thread with using programs as hotfix intergation, this is a great time for nlite.

beta 2.5 will included , application patches, working driver cleanup, and slight registry cleanup (in addition to the current in beta 2.0)

well, please wait until i say beta 2.5 is ready for testers before making a request.

can't wait gdogg

gdogg,have you tried Planet nVidia's nForce 1/2/3 remix driver pack? (www.planetnvidia.com)

It's much,much better than the standard one you recommend on the first page in this thread.

It includes a much better and stable audio mixer and the latest stable drivers for your motherboard (even if some are not WHQL,they are thoroughly tested by members of the site forums)

Included in this pack is also an optimised nVidia graphics driver that's better than the standard one from nVidia

(something like Omega Drivers for ATi cards)

I can't wait to test this 2.5 beta (themeless) version.First nLite 1.0rc2,then RVM 2.0 pack,then this - woohoo!

maybe vmware is the problem ...

ot:

good job vci for finding out what software needs the windows file to run on.

[jftuga]

vci,

How can you tell which DLLs are needed? Is there a way to get a list or do you keep trying to run the program, get a missing DLL error message, add the DLL, then repeat this cycle until the program runs?

-John

using filemon and regmon, filter/highlight on "not found"

search those files, copy those files, check again ... and so on

sometimes very difficult (mobile master e.g.)

some programs are very easy (they tell me which files are missing)

Micro Burner starts in 5 minutes? lol What could be delaying it for that long? It's similar like when you disable some driver(s) with ServiWin and it freezes up for a long while,until it finally gives up and starts...but does it burn then?

About Nero 7 - forget it,it's a piece of sh**

Edited November 2, 2005 by synth

[vci]

I don't know why it is delaying that much ...

it seems to stop responding, but cpu usage is 0% on that task and in general ... then after ~5minutes it is ready

I don't know if it is able to burn (I guess it loads all necessary files on startup) because I only test that stuff in vmware because I don't have a spare pc here where to test it ...

I only check whether the program starts or not, I do NOT test the functionality!

[likwit]

i just wanna say this a great project

keep it up

[gdogg]

thanks, i appreciate everyones support of this project.

I am reinstalling themed version in a few.

beta 2.5 will be great. Thanks to digitalfrost for his great work making microwinx partially work (so far) without the need for a second installed windows.

beta 2 will also shrink down omega drivers, as they made a mess
