Thank you, Ryan, for taking care of my username issue! I just wanted to say that without this forum and bink.nu when it existed in one of its old incarnations, I would've been a much less happy XP camper. bink.nu is gone completely and I did occasionally visit here and there just to see if there's s...

Thanks OnePiece. I'll run a fresh installation in VMWare with Win7 x64 and see what happens.

Nonno, the latest (final) version reports that the msu (64-bit) version of Internet Explorer 9 is made for a different version of Windows. I'm using an original disc of Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit including SP1. I continued anyway. Booting the disc runs until I choose to proceed to Setup, then it says...

Thanks, nonno!

Great news! I had given up customizing your script for my own use until now; thanks very much to both of you.

Voted for you! Best of luck! Let us know the result, please.

Merry Christmas everyone and Happy New Year! Stay warm and drive safely.

And yes, bah humbug too!

roirraWedorehT

Thank you very much! This looks very helpful.

Just wanted to say thanks again, used v4.0.1 successfully!!!

I love Escher too, well I love his intelligence and art that is.

As long as the state of code65536 is not observed, he is neither alive or dead...or he's both.

An exorcism?

Thanks for this latest update!

Thanks for this list!

Thanks, crashfly, sounds interesting.

It's not dead! It's just resting! "Parrot Sketch" - Monty Python's Flying Circus It's more than 2/3 through it's technical life cycle of 4611 days (12 years, 7 months, 16 days), but admit it, it is at "end of life" just as newsposter said. It's 3144 days into the 4611 day lifecycle. That's 68.185% o...

They might make Office 2010 compatible with XP, but they still don't provide a user-friendly way to migrate from an old XP installation to a new one to/from 2007/2007 or 2007/2010. I'm sure MS is more concerned about making Office 2010 available to corporate customers who still hang on to XP than IE...

You're such a smart a**.

I think there must be some kind of misunderstanding in the communication. Just a guess. @allesok, I downloaded Kels' new rar and it opens just fine for me. Check your WinRAR version, I'm using v3.91 although I know v3.92 or maybe even v3.93 exists now. Also, have you used HastTab or HashCheck to dou...

I don't remember all the details but I know about six months ago I was trying to extract the contents of a cab and the normal tools didn't work. A quick search of my catch-all download folder showed that the programs I downloaded in reverse chronological order were: Name Size Creation Date acdzip - ...

AFAIK, no. The closest things to update packs for Vista or 7 are compilations of Microsoft Updates, which you can integrate using vLite (google for it). But there's usually nothing special about these "update" packs. They're just repackaged copies of Microsoft's official downloads. I used to use vLi...

Good advise, newsposter.

We cannot help you. Please get help from someone who can.

As you can see, I'm not shy ab...

I've been using Windows 7 as my main OS since Windows 7 build 7022, and haven't gone back. I love it. I've tested it on my nine-year old computer as well and it runs very reasonably with 1GB of RAM. I usually try to be respectful but Scarface, you sound like a very crotchety old man who doesn't like...

I wasn't looking for a new email provider, but that service looks interesting. I'll definitely add it to my list to keep in mind in case I do want/need yet another alternative email address. Thanks, armond!

Is it perhaps lagging when it's waking up the hard drives, if they are set to go to sleep after inactivity? Does nothing else produce the same lag?

roirraWedorehT

I had that happen several years ago with a Dell-provided XP (with SP1 integrated) CD. At the time nlite seemed to work fine removing the offending hotfixes that Dell had integrated on the CD, and slipstreaming SP2 (back then the most recent).

I will also note that when I went from my first SATA RAID system which used the VIA 8237 chipset to setting up some nVidia chipset-based ones for three other people and then ATI-based for myself and a couple others I built, the performance difference was noticeable. Albeit, the VIA was SATA 1, but I...

Unfortunately for me, I have zero actual experience with SSDs; I've only read about them. :D I've been using RAID for about five years in four of my computers. I LOVE RAID. The boost in hard drive performance with RAID 0, plus now that I use RAID 0 + 1, it puts my mind at ease that I won't lose any ...

roirraWedorehT

Oh okay! Thanks for the education.

Off topic once again, "The Exorcism of Emily Rose" (movie) was disturbing as well!

roirraWedorehT

LOL!

Off topic, but what's NSFW mean?

Siginet is the devil!!! The power of Christ commands you!!!

I had read that Intel's were the best, too. Check out this article that came out the other day about the closest competition to Intel.

Whatever you choose, exhaust every avenue of research on them before you buy.

You can try the information on this website to see if it helps, I don't have time to test it right now (I was testing a more convoluted method before I resorted to googling :) Change Default Wallpaper Folder to My Pictures on Windows XP .

You inadvertently led me down a path of nostalgia about Orca/M, which I used to own - first for the IIc and then for the IIGS and eventually led me to Virtual Apple II, which allows you to play various Apple II and Apple IIGS games and other software through a browser plugin.

Cheers.

Maybe if all hard drives are connected before installing DeepFreeze then it would work correctly? Just a guess - I never used DeepFreeze although I know what it's supposed to do.
