HFSLIP - Test releases


Tomcat76

Recommended Posts

These versions are test builds and are pretty much stable. As usual, use them at your own risk.

A new final was released on November 9, 2009. If you were referred to this thread prior to November 9, please get the final from the main thread.

HFSLIP home page

*********************************************************

I hope tomcat76 doesn't mind me [tommyp] editting this post to add in a beta test build. See attachment for beta testing in preparation for the next final. Bugfixes:

Beta A - Added in WM11 codec slipstreaming (not the player, just the codecs by themselves).

Reordered HFCLEANUP and Drivercab merging.

HFCLEANUP made more friendly for slipstreaming drivers if removing with HFCLEANUP

HFCLEANUP reducers for XP seem to work now after lots of testing.

Beta B - Set HFSLIP to ignore KB968930

Redid parsing of KB975254 so that the new file is put in the right location.

Beta C - Acheron set me straight with the processing of the IIS fix. Thanks!

Beta D - Chop my fingers off, a typo. Hope all is fixed with the iis fix now.

Beta E - Special FDV request.

Beta F - Fixed a problem when slipstreaming drivers and not using hfcleanup. Thanks Inki!

Beta G - Finally got a round tuit and fixed a lingering prob with some languages for slipstreaming

the ms installer 4.5.

Beta H - The IE8 installer was run twice in previous releases. Now it only runs once. Changed

the IE8 installation INFs so that they are easier to remove IE8 using hfcleanup.

Beta I - Various echo cleanups, hfslip.log cleanup, french xp home fix.

Beta J - Fix for the xp home fix.

No donations = no more support. Two and half years and ZERO donations tells me that it wasn't useful enough. Good luck all!

*********************************************************

You can help by checking if the binary removal files (2000SP4.EXT, XPSP1.EXT and XPSP2.EXT) cover everything. Download dumpdupes.cmd and place it in the main HFSLIP folder (alongside the normal HFSLIP executable). Run this tool AFTER you ran HFSLIP (it namely requires a SOURCE and a SOURCESS folder to compare). If there are any duplicate binaries that can be removed, a file called EXCLUDE.TXT will be created. Let me know if it contains additional files to those that already exist in the current removal files. This program can be used to check Windows 2000, XP and 2003 sources.

Dumpdupes.cmd has one limitation: it only checks for duplicates in the current sources. This tool would have to be run again whenever new hotfixes arrive in order to ensure the list is up to date. I'll probably make another tool that outputs a full list of any driver binary that isn't supposed to be loose in I386 once I evaluated the pros and cons of both.

I used HFSLIP_60312-t1.CMD with WIN 2000 & XP

WINDOWS 2000:

1. KB 842773 (WinHTTP 5.1) doesn't integrate.

2. Failure of registration of chosen files: *cpl again (2000 & XP)

-> directx.cpl be active

WINDOWS XP:

3. KB 892130 Windows Genuine Advantage Validation Tool doesn't integrate.

4. KB 887472 (Windows Messenger) doesn't integrate.

5. How to download and integrate KB905474 ?

In general: when did these problems start? Which HFSLIP release is working fine?

For the *.cpl files...

60312-t1 doesn't touch *.cpl files anymore (as opposed to the last few builds) so the problem lies elsewhere. Do these come from application addons?

@TAiN:

OK... Thanks. The new solution is still better, though. I'm letting HFSLIP compress *.cpl files again just like before. Only the *.cpi files are left uncompressed. There's no point in not compressing either.

@dziubek:

Just for testers... can you remove winhttp.dll from your HFEXPERT folder?

Also, can you rename LegitCheckControl.dll in your HFEXPERT folder to WGA1.DLL?

You do know there's a new version of LCC, right?

Yes... HFSLIP needs to be run again.

Yes I know, but I for safety downloaded this file again and renamed LegitCheckControl.dll in HFEXPERT folder.

I used this files from addon pack:Control Panel Extensions

You can rename WGA1.DLL back to LegitCheckControl.dll. It was just for testers.

I believe that the *.cpl issue is actually a *.cpi issue. You should remove the ending "x" from the name of *.cpi files that have one because HFSLIP doesn't rename them. For example, "CDImagex.cpi" should be renamed to "CDImage.cpi".

As far as LegitCheckControl is concerned... If you remove the version that's in HFEXPERT, are you still being asked to download "Windows Genuine Advantage Tool"?

I'm looking into the Windows Messenger hotfix now.

Windows Messenger...

It would help if you actually included the hotfix in the HF folder. Please note the difference:

WindowsXP-KB887472-x86-plk.exe (Windows Messenger hotfix)

and

WindowsXP-KB887742-x86-PLK.exe (Stop error)

First test:

1. I used HFSLIP_60312.XX CMD (ERROR_REPORT_1.zip)

a. I added WindowsXP-KB887472-x86-plk.exe to HF folder and this hotfix was integrated.

This was my oversight, sorry :>

b. I deleted wga1.dll (LegitCheckControl.dll) in HFEXPERT,

but I still being asked to download "Windows Genuine Advantage Tool"

-->KB 892130 Windows Genuine Advantage Validation Tool doesn't integrate.

(http://download.microsoft.com/download/4/f/9/4f9730c0-2061-4028-bca9-3d6e652a5cc8/LegitCheckControl.cab)

c. I removed the ending "x" from the name of *.cpi files, but failure of registration of chosen files: *cpl it exists again.

Second test:

2. I used HFSLIP_60313a.CMD (ERROR_REPORT_2.zip)

a. KB 892130 Windows Genuine Advantage Validation Tool doesn't integrate.

b. I deleted all files from CODECS folder and i added this addons to HFAAO folder (instead of hand unpacking files and placing CODECS folder)

LegitCheckControl.dll...

For testing, open a Run box (in a freshly installed system), type the following and press Enter:

regsvr32 LegitCheckControl.dll

*.CPL files...

I see some of those need to be renamed. In that case, you should use the HFAAO method.

CDImageGUI...

I'll need to check that out. I don't see anything special about that package.

I have seen a few times lately that CPL files aren't registering. In my dealings with CPL files, if you place one in the sys32 folder, you see a control panel icon in the control panel. There wasn't any commands or anything to register it, it was just there. Am I missing something? Is there some sort of new CPL file looming out there?

An alternate way to see if the wga is slipstreamed is to open up regedit and search for LegitCheckControl.dll. Once you register this dll, it writes itself all over the registry.

usualy any .cpl file is diplayed in control panel - if not hidden by a special treatment (tweakui has a chapter to reveal them)

but you can also register an .exe file into control panel - silentdrive does so:

(the 115K .exe inside this cab copies a 40K .exe into system32 an shows it in control panel)

greetings

and dziubek: your missing file-problem: the .cpl and the .cpi MUST have the same name!!!

SilentDrive2.2CPL.cab
