Aegis Posted March 1, 2006 Author Share Posted March 1, 2006 (edited) Was hoping on keeping it secret a bit longer, but Ripken's screenshot revealed it all . Anyway, I'm using XP Embedded to create the project. For those who don't know, XP Embedded is basically the same as vanilla XP, with the only difference being that it's componentized. This means you can choose particular components such as DirectX or IE to be added to your configuration. Of course some of you may think that it's similar to nLite, but XP Embedded offers way more control, more than the typical user may want.And a sidenote, don't sweat too much over Ripken's rather high memory usage . It's still a beta and some nonessential services such as Indexing Service are included.@spazmire11Firefox is supported, but I'm not sure about Steam though. There is no use for nLite, as XP Embedded offers way more control. Other .NET apps will work in future betas.

JuiCe_pl Posted March 2, 2006 Share Posted March 2, 2006 (edited) @SoferCan you please take a picture of your monitor (before and after shots)? I didn't think anyone had a monitor that supported this feature . The tweak is undocumented; you can search Google and Microsoft for it and you won't find it. Only way to find out such tweaks is if you (or a friend) have access to the Windows source code.Hi there! My first post in this topic (at least I think so:) but I've been monitoring it since page 2 :>My desktop after activating doubledpi.reg3200x2400 - now I can have even a bigger mess on mz desktop then before!PS: After changing the resolution to 3200x2400 i couldn't use atitray anymore and I had to kill it because it was using 90% of CPU Power.My monitor is Nec MultiSync FE750+ running on 9600XT in 85 Hz. Cat 6.1And Now for Something Completely DifferentMy obligatory contribution: "Wow! This project is great!"

Aegis Posted March 4, 2006 Author Share Posted March 4, 2006 I'd like to note that NVIDIA video drivers do work, but are currently limited to FX-generation chips and below. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ripken204 Posted March 4, 2006 Share Posted March 4, 2006 I'd like to note that NVIDIA video drivers do work, but are currently limited to FX-generation chips and below.like that matters to most of us anyways, i dont beleive that nvidia drivers will be automatically supported, u will have to install them on your own through the device manager, i just did it and my 7800gt is working just fine.
