[Method] SpeedUp!

biatche · Post by **biatche** » Sat May 17, 2008 3:11 am

i dont understand now

previously i did things like this

ALL rvm integrations including this addon
I then make changes to winnt.sif and other unattended setup
then driverpack

unless you mean, integrate driverpack first.. then this addon?

skrell, these are for RVMI only

biatche, in SpeedUp -Post_DP this files pre-exist on the cd & updated after you had used driverpack slipstreamer
so these are treated as the rest of updates

for the regular release (none Post_DP)
i left it that way for evaluation so i may revert that.. but later. feel free to uncomment them as you will.

Terminal Services get removed(or not installed) because of this addon. Also Uberpack and CPLbonus addons(by Kel) don't install. So does IE7 by MrNxDmX).

I use WinXp Pro SP3; didn't use nlite(didn't remove drivers, components) - just integrated addons uisng RVMIntegrator 1.5.3
Without DP;
Checked several times on VM(mentioned that fast user switching wasn't working and saw terminal services missing, registry key for ts gone too)
When i integrated all my rest addons(the same as before) without this one, everything was fine.

So that's kind of problematic speedup :\.

I'm not sure whats happening with your install lsrkin, but I use this, and have had no problems what so ever! I'm sitting here typing this out using the same IE7 addon that you have said does not install after you use this addon, after playing with some of Kels control panel addons!

biatche · Post by **biatche** » Wed May 28, 2008 8:08 am

im sure its just you having these problems.... the root of your issue has to be something else.. you best explain fuly what you integrate

lsrkin · Post by **lsrkin** » Wed May 28, 2008 1:35 pm

I integrate:

RED_XP_SP3_UpdatePack_2.1.0.7z
VMware_Tools_AddOn.cab
DotNetFx_All_In_1_Addon_v2.1.7z
DirectX_9.0c_End-User_Runtime_AddOn_0.3.4_-_redxii.7z
ENU_AddOns_SpeedUp_1.5.zip
ENU_Addons_BVProSvcDescriptions_SP3.7z
PatchAddon_SYSSETUP_InfSkip_v14.7z
PatchAddon_UXTHEME_v14a.7z
PatchAddon_SFC_OS_v14.7z
PatchAddon_HIVESYS-1280x1024.7z
Ricks_BlueXP_SP3_taskmgr_TweakedAddon.7z
Ricks_GenuineAdvantage_AddOn_80411.7z
BootMod (/usepmtimer add) addon
KELS_CPLBONUS_ADDON_V8.2.4.7z
KELS_UBER_ADDON_V12.5.7z
NR_IE7en_Addon_1.1.0.7z
Kels_Runtimes_addon_v4.2.CAB

Can PatchAddon_SYSSETUP_InfSkip_v14.7z be a reason? I didn't integrated it too last time when it was fine.

Took it from http://www.ryanvm.net/forum/viewtopic.php?t=2274

ENU_user · Post by **ENU_user** » Wed May 28, 2008 2:19 pm

close enough

try, with out BVProSvcDescriptions_ for now

i found some weird thing going on with this ,something with how the inf is applied and what it is changing, probably a typo

will look into it

lsrkin · Post by **lsrkin** » Wed May 28, 2008 2:24 pm

I disabled it too last time, but mmm didn't even think that reg file could've done this 0_o.

TY!

ENU_user · Post by **ENU_user** » Wed May 28, 2008 3:12 pm

well looking back at it again it seems to work fine
i am currently using a modified BVProSvcDescriptions addon which got me puzzled there for a minute sorry

you can integrate each addon on its own if the issues are absent go on integrating the others ...start with speedup

biatche · Post by **biatche** » Wed May 28, 2008 4:46 pm

use winrar or some archiver to test each addon file.. one of those files might possibly be broken

biatche · Post by **biatche** » Wed May 28, 2008 4:47 pm

one more thing, make speedup your very last integration

lsrkin · Post by **lsrkin** » Wed May 28, 2008 8:22 pm

Tested on VM with SpeedUp addon and the rest i already mentioned without BVDESCRIPTIONS and everything went OK!!!

There's some problem with BvDesckriptions addon(already pmed ENU_user my theory)

Stimpy · Post by **Stimpy** » Thu May 29, 2008 2:11 am

Why do you use the BootMod (/usepmtimer add) addon? This addon was a fix to a problem with SP2, this issue was addressed in SP3, so you really should not use this addon anymore.

biatche · Post by **biatche** » Thu May 29, 2008 4:00 am

stimpy you don't say.. /usepmtimer isn't required anymore in sp3?!?! ive been using it on every pc i format lol that's dual core

Stimpy · Post by **Stimpy** » Thu May 29, 2008 8:17 am

That's right, MS fixed dual-core behaviour in SP3, it is in the list of SP3 fixes, but I don't have it to hand. Plus I can confirm that my system plays games properly without this patch, that before SP3, needed the /usepmtimer option.

Hope this helps.

biatche · Post by **biatche** » Thu May 29, 2008 8:39 am

i've been googling to see where it states that SP3 doesn't require usepmtimer anymore, but I can't find it anywhere... as far as i can see, this KB896256 or something is included in SP3, but what it does is, it adds /usepmtimer to the boot.ini file .. mind showing me relevant links that SP3 doesn't require this usepmtimer switch anymore?

Stimpy · Post by **Stimpy** » Thu May 29, 2008 8:58 am

You have me thinking Biatche, and I have to admit that beyond MS including the hotfix in to SP3, as well as a kernel update that was aimed at fixing power management features on multicore CPUs, I can't actually find anyone saying that this swich is needed or not, so I have to say I am confused.

Fragbert · Post by **Fragbert** » Thu May 29, 2008 9:34 am

Easy way to test is to run a benchmark with and without the switch.

lsrkin · Post by **lsrkin** » Thu May 29, 2008 11:42 am

Thx for usefull info, Stimpy! Will test without /usepmtimer switch.

twig123 · Post by **twig123** » Thu May 29, 2008 6:48 pm

First, thanks for the time that was put into this addon!

Question...
I didn't have much time to look over the addon, but it looks like it just expands all the .sys files... is this true? and if so, can't we just change the coding to expand the sys files?

Also, would there be any advantages to just expanding everything in the root of the I386 folder?

ENU_user · Post by **ENU_user** » Thu May 29, 2008 9:25 pm

only a few drivers that are loading the setup can be expanded and the other SCSI ones loading in text mode, whether they are to be loaded or not ...
the setup doesn't agree with having more then these few expanded ..

the rest are on their way to the HD like "copy" & expand does a good job transferring the files &so ..

maveric73ph · Post by **maveric73ph** » Sat May 31, 2008 10:49 am

Since this is only usable via the integrator, can anyone please post another link or send me by email Siginet's RVMi 1.53??? (maveric73ph@yahoo.com). I can't seem to download the rar file from Siginet's site. I have tried all day with different browsers to no avail. I am now very desperate. I need to create a new XPCD tomorrow morning for a job. Thanks!

Email sent, maveric73ph. You also have a PM.

rsadix · Post by **rsadix** » Sat Jul 12, 2008 12:37 pm

I need to use nLite to integrate a particular promise sata driver that I use (or else I can't install onto my 'c' drive), and I'm not interested in the driver packs.

Should I use the DP version of Speed up or does it matter ?

ENU_user · Post by **ENU_user** » Sun Jul 13, 2008 2:40 pm

as long as ",noload" isn't applied to you're drive's
when needing the specific sata drives to load i could say you are safe.

if you are not using DP you can use the standard version of SpeedUp addon
DP actually updates some original files,disabling them from loading will be pointless .... thats why the PostDP version is offered...

Ktrapz · Post by **Ktrapz** » Thu Aug 21, 2008 12:59 am

are there any drivers that were added by sp3 that are not pre-expand after this addon? or it expands all possible drivers during setup

ENU_user · Post by **ENU_user** » Thu Aug 21, 2008 5:04 am

AFAICR, if sp3 holds any extra files ,they are referenced to be processed in this addon.
if in reference; (in edits) there are files that point to sp2 & missing on sp3 then they aren't intended for sp3 but sp2 ...etc
either way , the addon should be pretty compatible for both sp's

ccl0 · Post by **ccl0** » Sat Sep 20, 2008 4:11 am

i have a question about Post_DP Slipstream. it has the word post in it, so i take that to mean i have to integrate this after driver packs? what happens if i did it before the driver packs? or does it matter the order?

ENU_user · Post by **ENU_user** » Sat Sep 20, 2008 4:39 am

ccl0, you got it all right!

the only way available is to integrate it after slipstreaming the sata driverpack.
in short: doing this otherwise will screw both speed_up and driverpacks settings and most likely the setup.

Hi.ENU_user
thanks for this nice addon but i have stupid question that is this addon compatible with xp sp3 5512???

crashfly · Post by **crashfly** » Tue Nov 04, 2008 8:45 pm

Jamshed, I could not tell you about the addon specifically, however the method is compatible with sp3. The "method" just allows the textmode setup to not load certain drivers when first starting up.

ENU_user · Post by **ENU_user** » Tue Nov 04, 2008 11:54 pm

Jamshed YWC , yea absolutely compatible, with SP2 as well!

Salad · Post by **Salad** » Wed Nov 19, 2008 11:56 am

Can I use this method with DP MassStorage nightly build ?

Does the "DP MassStorage" add additional textmode drivers to your startup?

Mostly what this addon does is reduce the amount of textmode drivers loading so that the setup process is quicker. If you need some of those drivers that this addon tells the setup not to load, that might cause trouble.

Now, you can probably use this addon with added drivers, however the easiest way to find out is just to test it. Use a VM if you have to.

SpeedUp Addon wont work with DP Nightlies - http://driverpacks.sytes.net/driverpacks/Nightlies/
When this addon integrated after DP - there are many "xxx.sys" not found. W/o addon all works fine. (DPMS addon was used sure)

ENU_user · Post by **ENU_user** » Mon Dec 15, 2008 3:33 pm

ok, will change it to work with nightly version as well ...

ENU_user · Post by **ENU_user** » Mon Dec 15, 2008 5:56 pm

there is now an update for the post_DPMS_speedup_addon to work with the Nightlies build.

hey ENU_user is there a way to use this after an install? i completely forgot about this addon you made and only remembered after i had finished installing (i always seem to forget something lol)

After INSTALL??? This addon decreases time of 1st text phase of install, after there is no need for it.

ccl0 · Post by **ccl0** » Sun Mar 08, 2009 12:29 pm

its just the FIRST???? (see i can post in caps and use exaggerated number of question marks too) i thought it was something to help speed up boot times

crashfly · Post by **crashfly** » Sun Mar 08, 2009 1:11 pm

ccl0, the intent of the addon is to reduce the amount of drivers loaded *only* when starting up the install program for windows.

If you have already installed windows, then this addon will not do you any good. You may need to look other places for information regarding reducing your boot up time.

ENU_user · Post by **ENU_user** » Sun Mar 08, 2009 1:19 pm

(at the very beginning of the setup) this only aids speeding-up quite noticeably the text phase along with the extraction-"copy" of files to the system disk (in preparing the setup )

after which the pc reboots to start the windows system setup install (from the system-Disk) .. where everything continues as usual ...
