Windows 2000 and DirectX, IE6

[Kie]

Does nLite support:

-adding DirectX 9.0c into Windows 2000

-adding Internet Explorer 6.0 Service Pack 1 into Windows 2000

I attempted to include both items and both attempts failed.

Cheers,

Kie

I've installed them via an addon pack but not integrated via the hotfix option.

There's a sticky for creating a 7-zip addon pack and creating the cab file.

For IE6, the silent option is "ie6setup.exe /Q".

For DirectX, I downloaded the full redistributable and the silent option is "dxsetup.exe /silent".

Granted this isn't as space saving as a direct integration but it works just as well.

i have both addons already. ya want ? IE6 is about 12 MB and installs from SVCPACK. DX9 is about 45 megs (october 2006 update) and installs from RUNONCE. I've only removed the 64-bit files from DX9 so thats about as slim as I could make it. If anyone can suggest some more files I could remove that would be very welcome

ATM and afaik, nlite can't slipstream DX.

HFSlip can.

I'd be interested in IE 6 B)

HFSlip... will need to investigate

well i did try it out after reading that post and OMG, its superb!!! No addons required, no nothing, IE6 and DX9 totally slipstreamed. Like the site says, it does need a bit of an attention span but the rewards are truly awesome! The one caveat is NLiting the whole thing might be a little bit tricky/troublesome!

Full XP SP1 update with HFSlip + high nlitement (down to 120/130MB) + DriverPacks + WIHU and not a single problem.

What is the difference between an adon and hotfix option? I was under the impression they are the same.

Is there a stripped down dx9 to add similar to the one hfslip uses?

What about bda.cab and directx.cab. they are for 98/ME.

I also integrated IE6 and DirectX 9c a while ago using the HFSLIP

guide, it works perfectly but can you use nLite on that afterwards?

I vaguely remember it doesn't like nLite, or nLite doesn't like it,

depending on which side your bread is buttered.

All I want to do to it really is re-compress the cab files and

remove a few languages here and there, hmmm, guess I

will just have to try it out.

Goto "nLite and HFSLIP" on this page.

It gives you a list of files not to remove with both WMP and DX things, there's a ";wm codec stuff" between them but it's not so easy to find it.

And I've been using nLite with HFSLIP without any problem for months.

Just keep this in mind:

1-HFSLIP and updaters

2-nLite

3-BTS's DriverPacks

4-anything you want
