I posted this request on the other nLite 1.1 wishlist:

Check Box to Automatically set XP Services to one of BlackViper's 3 Settings

□ "Safe"

□ Power User

□ Bare Bones

ricktendo64, does BlackViper has those presets copyrighted, I don't know if it's allowed...I could do it easily if it's ok.

edit: on second thought no thanks, I don't want to call something safe regarding services. Let people do their own selecting. In next version it will apply only changed states of services.

I have BV's pdf document about services ... at the end it is said:

All content Copyright © 1999-2004 by Black Viper of www.blackviper.com. All Rights Reserved.

Additionally I don't like the "presets" he gives, for me none of his presets is accurate enough.

I would prefer better descriptions of the services and examples what doesn't work without that service.

I don't think that presets are that good, better learn what the things do that you remove ...

@nuhi

thanks, I didn't know that about quick launch ;-)

some extra words about the netbt mod:

1)unlink netbt from DHCP (as described in the thread)

2)set netbt service to manual

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\ControlSet001\Services\NetBT]
"Start"=dword:00000003

I don't want you to forget the second thing *g*

I would add this to the mod-description:

netbt will be set to manual and will be available on demand via:

net start netbt

To stop it again: net stop netbt

It may be needed to stop rdr and srv first

Of course you can mention the great security benefit of shutting down the netbt ports :D

vci, I've hidden the NetBT in next one, so it seems it would be good to show it on the services page even though it's not on the default list from full windows.

Will dwell on it.

nuhi, is it possible to have a direct integration for directx_aug2006_redist.exe in some future release of nLite?

http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details...E7-CC576822AED4

Like the direct integration of the Service Packs?

DirectX 9.0c Aug

Check the text in the link:

Overview

This package is localized into ..............

Sure this must mean that just the install is in different languages but the package is multi-languaged

I think this is the case, I checked Sereby's DirectX addon and found that all the files are identical (English (USA)) as on my swedish XP.

I tried the DirectX addon and it worked with no problems at all!

Sereby also told me if MS releases a new DirectX he will name it multi-languaged, and ofcourse if the files are English (USA).

Sereby's DirectX addon is a direct integration, replaces the old files with the new, exactly as on slipstreaming service packs.

I recommend this instead of the silent install DirectX addons (silent is a waste of space, only makes XP Image file larger)!

Thanks, hulkviper :thumbup

I have already downloaded that directx addon and I will use it in my future installs.

Nevertheless this could be a great feature for a future version of nLite ;)

:hello:
