Don't forget to let us know what finally worked to recover your data!!

Yep, me too!! No theme directory???

With everyone moving to SATA these days you're not left with much choice but to use some sort of raid because a lot of SATA controllers are raid driven. . This is the part of his statement that baffles me??? This thread contains more off-topic, whines and false statements than any other part of thi...

Thanks, it will join my collection as one of the top three!!

I just ran across Ryan's work in the last couple of weeks, creating my first updated post-SP2 install CD last week. What a great service he provides. If we all donate maybe Ryan can afford a data recovery service, at least it will help him rebuild. Ryan, I just sent sent you $100. Yeah, that's the ...

I think you might want Runtime Software's "Raid Reconstructor". It can usually recover a corrupted raid array ......... YMMV.

Well, I'll actually be banning cracked WGA addons when the next pack is released (I can't really justify that when I've got a strict no warez policy on everything else), so don't plan on posting it here, keytotime :P Good plan, the last thing you (and we) want is trouble with Microsoft about your s...

You could use the one that I posted here long ago that actually works.

This error appers to be associated with Ryans wmp10 addon. If you remove it, the error disappears.

Edit:

You will also get this error with Booogys current wmp10 pack as might be expected.

Not sure if this is it:

Do you think that this should have"addons" as part of the file name?

And where did you read that the problem was thought to be VMware tools??

I thought you just meant mapping any old share over the network as opposed to going through VMware's proprietary mechanism. I can map drives all day long without loading the tools. No problem, however, I got my conditions by reading the first post in this thread. I thought it would be best,when try...

Of course, the VMware tools are installed because otherwise you cannot do this. Correction. You can. You'll have to correct the Help File then. From the help file: Setting Up Shared Folders Choose: VM > Settings > Options > Shared Folders Note: To use shared folders, you must have the current versi...

Using VMware 5 with a mapped drive to a shared folder on the host and bridged networking, browsing works fine. Of course, the VMware tools are installed because otherwise you cannot do this. Anyway, no bugs here.
Are you using VMware 5.5?? -- Buggy, Buggy!

@techtype its a matter of preferrence, i say keep it, some of the people i build pc's for dont know how to use the startmenu, im not kidding they actually dont, so the desktop icon is the only hope they have of opening media player :D 1. It was not there in previous versions and still no one asked ...

AAAggh! This one has a shortcut on the desktop --- get rid of it please!

Oh, and thanks for all your work on this!!

NLite, end of story!

Got you there, anal-retentives don't care if it fixes anything!! LOL

Any of those work well to make the CAB, but when you want to quickly modify it, AlphaZip cannot be beat. Once you try it (Tip: Only use the right-click function) you'll be proud!

This is my first post, and I've been using the RyanVM Update Packs for quite some time, but I haven't encountered this issue until recently.

You can use an unattended batch file. ;) In your batch file you can copy the $OEM$ directory to your destination... then run the integrator calling an ini file and /integrate after it. Like this: RVMIntegrator_1.0RC13_Beta6.exe "X:\path\to\my\ini\integrator2.ini" /integrate Ah, that would do it, th...

Kelsenellenelvian wrote:oh duh!!! hmmmm dunno sorry. nlite and the integrator only work in the I386 folder.

That's OK. Unless someone comes up with an idea, I'll add it to the source.

techtype wrote:I know how to create a pack to add a directory or files to i386, but how would I add a directory to the root of the CD?

Seems like you lost track of the question?

Well, I keep some drivers in $OEM$ that I then manipulate during install with my own program. It would be easier to remember to include this if I had it in one of my addon packs. I suppose that I could add it to the source directory as an alternative, but I would prefer to keep the source clean.

I know how to create a pack to add a directory or files to i386, but how would I add a directory to the root of the CD?
