W7T alpha crashes every time I try to d/l office 2007 updates.....
-
I think I found the answer here:
It appears that a group policy setting is created during a vista to 7 upgrade. It constantly turns UAC back on. Weird. This is the specific file:
C:\Windows\System32\GroupPolicy\Machine\Registry.pol
I renamed it to .bak, and I will report back when I'm sure that's the fix.
EDIT: That seems to have done the trick.

I cant manage to keep UAC off. No matter how many times I turn UAC off and reboot, in a few hours it turns itself back on to Always Notify. Anybody else having this problem? Any suggestions?
-
It was innactive for almost 6months...
ANYWAYS UPDATED!
thanks Kel!!! much appreicated
-
links are dead
PS I love this addon
-
no worrys man
-
just installed this on my MCE box via the inf installers. upon reboot, i lost ALL keyboard and mouse support, both PS2 and USB. I'm having to reinstall now, because with no input, I cant even do a system restore. I understand that this was a nLite addon, and installing via .inf probably isnt recomended, but I thought I'd share my results......

think i saw one over at MSFN....
-
wow, just wow
if any wants a dx10 addon, PM me, and i'll gladly make it for you.....

no offense, but you seem to be very oppininated over something you havent tried...
http://leechermods.blogspot.com/2008/04/di...windows-xp.html^this is the link to the newest "XP" version of directx 10. almost everything on the site is either a torrent/emule client leecher mod or some form of warez. someone has also been spamming other forums with rapidshare links for "directx 10 for xp".
and thats not the original source for the project, links can be found anywhere...
because the sidebar for xp installation doesnt overwrite any windows system files or inject itself into any important windows components. it only contains modified vista files and software that allows the sidebar to run under xp. "directx 10 for xp" adds files to the directx framework and fundamentally alters the way windows processes graphics. now ill be the first to point out that directx is basically a joke pieced together by microsoft to trick gamers into buying vista, but think about this for a second: when you really think about it, what are the odds that some random warez junkie managed to emulate directx 10 on windows xp, when Rafael and the Alky Project couldnt accomplish the same thing in well over a year?i totally agree that dx10 is not superior to dx9 in anyway. but i would hardly call dx an important windows component. and funny how on that same page, they link to the alky project libraries/runtimes.
notice that no one has posted any screenshots or videos of this actually installed and working on an xp computer...actually, my friends and i, have tested dx10 against dx9 on my website (holy sh**, with comparison screenshots). the visible differences are slight at best, but the main noticable effect of dx10 is an fps boost of ~10 fps. this isnt enough to convince me to use it, but let the gamers decide for themselves....

It was weird, it was only happening in VMWARE, anyhow its long gone now.
yeah that is strange. the only thing i could think of, was that your uid's were over 16 charcters, which probably has nothing to do it with it......
fix that w2k prob?
-
"written by a guy who poisons bittorrent networks with ratio cheating clients "
just wondering where you got this info...
and how is this much different from wanting the sidebar on XP?
-
uid's too long maybe?
idk
-
an easier way:
delete the original bliss.jpg
rename your default wallpaper to bliss.jpg

how is this an addon? miscatagorized.....

With some help from DARECKIBMW, i figured it out. The sidebar image dosent seem to exist as a bitmap in any normal resource file. It seems it can be added through shellstyle.dll used in a theme. And I believe the UIFILE has to be edited to call it, but i'm not 100% sure on that. So DARECKIBMW sent me this file (I think its from one of VG's themes):
http://www.mediafire.com/?mtdntpxyixb
and i replaced 120.bmp with my own. That shellstyle.dll needs to go in WINDOWS>Resources>Themes>*theme name*>Shell>Normal Color>. I tried it with a theme that didnt have a Shell folder (I created the folders), and it didnt work, so i assume it will only work with themes that use the Shell folder/shellstyle.dll already.
-
hey, i know this can be done, but i cannot find the correct resource to do it. i would like to replace the blue left side panel in xp explorer with an image. i've been all over shell32.dll, shell.dll, shellstyle.dll and a few others, but i cant find it anywhere. anybody know where i can find it?
-
i've never taken the time to actually hex it. i have one that works with 5512, but its really the taskman from SP2.....

Yes, I'm out of luck with 5508, oh well final is coming soon
i just rebuilt the 5508. should work now....
-
dareckibmw,
It is probably because those computers do not use ntoskrnl.exe that would be why you don't have an issue.
hngovr1,
Thanks man, curious what was the problem ?
i'm guessing the original kernel was corrupted during raring or d/ling....
-
well, it worked for me, I already got 5-6 pc's running fine with it but some people getting that error "ntoskrnl.exe is missing or corrupted" ...how is this possible :g: is there a way to fix it, I mean in .iso or on already installed OS.
5508 rebuilt.
to replace in existing installs, unpack addon, replace files in system32 in SAFE MODE.
XP mode problems - solved
in Microsoft Windows 7
Posted · Edited by hngovr1
I've found a weird XP Mode bug. I can install it (and even install apps) just fine, but it only runs after the intial setup. Under the Windows Virtual PC folder under the Start Menu, it just says (empty), unless I have apps installed. Virtual PC is missing, as well as the XP Mode shortcuts that should be listed there. I cant even open the VM directly from the VHD files. Any body else seen this, or have a suggestion?
SOLVED - I upgraded from Vista with Virtual PC 2007 installed. I uninstalled it with a third party uninstaller (VPC 2007 dosent work on 7). It wiped out my start menu shortcuts. XP Mode actually installed fine, I just needed to manually replace my start menu shortcuts.
