  1. I have a HDD that I have ran scndsk on and when I try to copy things to the (bad)HDD it just hangs.

    I was wondering if anyone has used this program and have successfully repaired a bad HDD.

    THANKS

    I've used it.

    First on a 60GB old drive with 20% bad sectors and then on a new SATA drive with just some bad sectors.

    The SATA drive got repaired. I re-run a second check just to be shure.

    The 60GB one unfortunately seemed to be repaired but on a second scan the bad sectors reappeared.

    It was my notebook's drive. It became so slow that I had to wait almost 10 min for XP just to boot.

    Dumped it as soon as I could afford a new one :rolleyes: .

    In my opinion it's good only if few sectors are bad, caused by an improper shut-down (logical bad sectors).

    Bad sectors tend to spread faster than a plauge.

  2. Thanks But i didn't understand anything this line [ you get all those reg entries because there are some dlls registered during winamp installation. ]

    I didn't say anything abt reg entries

    and also this line [ try this. you'll NOTICE the difference ] .Sorry what to try can you expalin little bit as simple as Ricktendo64 explained .

    By the way thanks for giving tips.

    hi again Shashi

    sorry for talking a little bit technical. i will try to explain it in more simple words:

    the command-line i gave you sets winamp as the default audio/video/audioCD player.

    it adds some registry keys for the file association with winamp to work.

    these associations are located under the HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT registry root.

    since winamp plays many file types, the registry keys are a lot.

    i'll make your life easier. these are the files that need to be added to the RegisterDLLs section :

    CDDBControlWinamp.dll

    CddbMusicIDWinamp.dll

    CddbPlaylist2Winamp.dll

    CDDBUIWinamp.dll

    they are located under the "C:\Program Files\Winamp\Plugins\Gracenote" directory.

    just add them like in rick's example.

    now to get all those registry keys i'm talking about use installrite and do an initial system scan. next step register the dlls and run winamp with the command-line. last step in installrite check the snapshot you just took and look in the "modified registry" entry.

    i hope i was more clear this time :rolleyes::P:)

  3. hi Shashi

    let me give some tips :

    you get all those reg entries because there are some dlls registered during winamp installation.

    also just before finishing, the nsis installer executes winamp.exe with the following parameters (/REG=AVCD) to create file associations

    if my memory does'nt fail me i think A stands for audio, V for video and CD for AudioCD and context menu

    try this. you'll NOTICE the difference :)

    best regards

  4. I started testing some custom builds recently and used this addon..however i'm having some issues with it.

    some icons are missing (IE8 and some startmenu shortcuts),mediacenter complains of no netfx 1.1 even though this would be present from this pack..

    I tried even an isolated case with only this addon, nlite 1.4.9.1 no removals, no customisations and still the same results.

    just to let you know

  5. @johnnyboy

    thanks for implementing my request.

    however when I run your software I get an IE script error at line 736 char 2: syntax error.

    I try to continue running the script but nothing happens, just 4 gradient-blue rectangles with no text in them and no window title just "document.title".

  6. Onepiece has a addon with IE7 and updates
    Check out OnePiece/Nonno Fabio's or MrDmX (sorry, the nice Turkish guy with the Roadrunner icon!!!)

    99% sure they both are "true." Both are on the first page.

    But, best link is http://getfirefox.com :thumbsup_anim:

    @rick & pen25jf

    Actually he is requesting an IE7 UpdatePack with only the hotfixes not IE7 itself. OnePiece's addon contains the full IE7 + hotfixes.

    @George King

    You can slipstream IE7 using nLite by just adding OnePiece's or MrNxDmx's one as a hotfix. Check this thread on Ryan's forum it pretty much covers all your needs:

    Onepiece's Internet Explorer 7 for XP with updates Addons

    I hope MrNxDmx doesn't pick on me for favoring the competition.. :P:D

  7. Thanks Rick

    I knew how to disable addons (even how to remove them, ofcourse those that can be removed).

    Anyway I found the problematic addon. It was a INF with some tweaks made by a friend of mine. It's string length exceeded the 4096 char limit for INFs thus blocking most of my addons (which came after it in integration order).

  8. I have some experience with addon slipstreaming and nliting windows builds.

    Having an XP VLK key yesterday I downloaded the MSDN build of xp with SP3.

    While playing with nlite I noticed something strange.

    My DVD builds perfectly. However when I test it on a real machine (even a virtual one) some adons don't get installed (inf addons) while others work as expected. When I say don't get installed I mean they appear on the Win Add/Rem Components but there aren't any folders on Program Files or shortcuts on Desk and Start.At first I thought it was DriverPacks fault but later testings proved me wrong. I've been scratching my head trying to figure out what I'm doing wrong but with no success :blush: .

    I hope somebody can clear me out. I'm attaching my nlite settings.

    Regards felix
