    Congratulations! Everyday is now "Father's Day".

    From the father of two beautiful daughters, I have this advice: Your life as you knew it is now gone. Your existence will now revolve around your daughter, and you'll love her for that!

    Enjoy your new arrival, and get sleep while you can! :D

    so, the credits go to those guys. i just changed text resources from russian to english.

    enjoy :0)

    Do you know where to find the left bitmap for the "System Restore" tab?

    Also, the bmp for the "Automatic Updates" tab isn't working for me. The resource is there, but it's not getting applied.

    Is anyone working on extracting the resources from the pack posted here?

    http://fishy-fish.deviantart.com/gallery/

    Since they've been extracted from Vista itself, they should be even better than what's already in V'ISO...right?

    Just another way to improve an already awesome utility!

    Thanks again Rick!

    *Edit

    Nevermind, V'Iso already implements all of these icons.

    V'Iso is perfecto!

    Hi Kels,

    This is great, I love this utility.

    I found a problem however. When the switchless installer is run from WPIW 6.3 during runonceex, the install hangs and WPIW won't progress to the next installer. The only way for WPIW to progress is to force-quit the vista-drive installer process from the task manager.

    Any ideas?

    This is (presumably) because you have ticked the "show hidden devices" (or similar, can't tell you the exact translation) in the view options (cf screenshot).

    There is absolutely nothing wrong with that, it not a problem and also not "caused" by Kel's pack.

    Hi Helmi.

    Yeah, I figured it out already. It is caused by Ricks V'iso pack (reported here: http://www.wincert.net/forum/index.php?sho...mp;st=180 )

    Like you pointed out, it's not really a bug, but an option that is changed by default. I'm just not used to seeing it 'on' by default.

    it's not really a bug, but an option in Device Manager...

    if U don't like it, U may uncheck:

    Device Manager>View>Show Hidden Devices

    [smacks forehead]

    Ay Caramba!

    OK, thanks for confirming the issue. I thought it was the new .msc files. I couldn't figure out how to edit it myself. I was going crazy. :confused02:

    So, how to fix it prior to integration?

    Thanks again guys!

    Rick, I found a bug in V'ISO b7.2

    When you integrate V'ISO, then build an ISO and test in VM or real hardware, the Device Manager shows an entry for "Non-Plug and Play Drivers". This issue only happens when V'ISO is applied. To either a virgin SP2/IE7/WMP11 source, or a heavily modified source. I haven't yet tried an untouched SP2 source (no IE7 or WMP), but I'd bet $$ the issue would remain.

    The contents of the "Non-Plug and Play Drivers" heading are:

    AFD
    Beep
    dmboot
    dmload
    E-mu Plug-in architecture driver
    EraserUtilRebootDrv

    post-746-1200862253_thumb.png

    There's about 20 more items.

    None of them have a HWID (Hardware ID) associated with them, so they are not chunks of hardware with no driver, they are all software pieces used by the OS.

    This was originally reported here

    Any idea which .res module is causing the fault?

    I just want to point out that there are NO other problems (hardware related), and this is just an annoyance-bug.

    Thanks!

    [*]The copy dialog window don't has the "More information" button, because it has no action associated.

    Hi Kal,

    How did you do that? I know the file to edit is shell32.dll.

    Just open "%windir%\System32\Shell32.dll" file in Resource Hacker and then goto:

    Dialog -> 1020 -> 1033

    But what did you put in the script?

    Hi Kel,

    Thanks for this, it's awesome!

    Quick question, I'm seeing a whole list of items under the heading "Non-Plug and Play Drivers" in the Device Manager. Ordinarily I'd suspect a driver issue, but the items under the heading have titles such as:

    AFD
    Beep
    dmboot
    dmload
    E-mu Plug-in architecture driver
    EraserUtilRebootDrv

    There's about 20 more items.

    None of them have a HWID (Hardware ID) associated with them, so they are not chunks of hardware with no driver, they are all software pieces used by the OS.

    Is this related to this addon? This heading doesn't exist on my current install which doesn't include this addon.

    Any idea?

    Driver problem in Vista Home Premium

    When you installed XP/Vista, did you have the card physically connected at the time of the install? Or did you install it later once Windows was done installing itself?

    The reason I ask is I had a similar problem with a UK BT wireless PCI card. The card requires the drivers be installed FIRST, then the computer shut down and install the card.
