XPSP3_QFE_UpdatePack for Windows XP Post-SP3 20180109

I am curious ... where do you get the data in your tzupdate.inf?

I can't seem to find matching data in KB2633952.

For example, line 14 contains "Kabul" - I can't find that anywhere in KB2633952.

Thanks

I build it from the registry of a clean running system. It seems 5eraph and myself use the same methodology.
The tzupdate.inf is a complete timezone data while the KB only has the updated data.

Post by **5eraph** » Wed Dec 14, 2011 12:04 am

Yep. Same method. Slightly different implementation when building the actual INF.

My INF only includes the changes between the original registry entries and the latest time zone update as found by differencing the exported "HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Time Zones" key with code65536's diff.exe, so it's smaller despite following gosh's rigid text-mode INF rules (specifically, always using 8-digit data type IDs with Reg2Inf's /longflags).

I know for certain that US English XPx86, XPx64 and 2003x64 share nearly identical time zone registry entries (the only difference between x86 and x64 being the MapID for Tasmania Standard Time, "20,-1" vs. "20,65") . If one wanted they should be able to swap our time zone update INFs and achieve the same result.

EDIT: A working script has been posted for those interested.

I'm getting an error with 201111213, using the same addons I used with 20111110 which didn't give this error.

qfecheck,

Code: Select all

KB2264107:  This hotfix should be reinstalled.
The following files are not valid in the system catalog:
		C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\NTDLL.DLL

Related error in setuperr.log.

From the update pack details:

KB2264107 - This update helps protect against DLL preloading vulnerabilities in software applications on the Windows platform.

Any ideas? Is it on my end?

all fine here !

maybe a bad integration?

here is the info on the file in the update pack:

File: ntdll.dll version 5.1.2600.6055
CRC-32: 1684124f
MD4: 6f85e2860b25b78808c16023c722b541

shiner · Post by **shiner** » Wed Dec 14, 2011 10:53 pm

All hashes are OK here.

I will go back and start again.

Am I correct in thinking that this version of ntdll.dll was added in qfe1.48?

shiner · Post by **shiner** » Thu Dec 15, 2011 2:03 am

u_h, I don't know what to say.

I now have 3 vms using 20111213 and all give the same error above on ntdll.dll. The hashes of ntdll.dll in those VMs all match the hashes you posted. My latest integration included only your pack, nothing else.

Any suggestions? Is there any information I can give you?

Lemme check into it more and get back to you.....

I'm prepping a rebuild with a fix and I'll PM you with a link to test.

ricktendo64 wrote:I still prefer to use tzchange.exe

I don't know if there are any side effects from the way u_h and 5eraph are handling time zone updates - but I haven't encountered any.

However, there is at least one minor problem using tzchange.exe, at least under certain conditions. If you use winnt.sif to set your time zone and do an install between the old time shift date and the new time shift date, the system time will be thrown off by one hour. It works fine for the rest of the year.

Post by **user_hidden** » Sat Dec 17, 2011 7:55 pm

@SHO_Gun

yup I changed to the tzupdate.inf method a while back which alleviated many timezone bugs.

Post by **5eraph** » Sat Dec 17, 2011 8:00 pm

That's the problem Kurt_Aust described to me back in October 2009, after my hiatus. It wasn't until a month later (XPx64 pack 2009-11_2) that I realized it was necessary to add the changes before the relevant entries in WinNT.sif were parsed.

SHO_GuN stumbled upon the same problem a few months after that, which prompted user_hidden to use a similar method.

geoslake · Post by **geoslake** » Mon Dec 19, 2011 10:00 am

I'm almost sure it's not related to this pack, but for now about 3 months (i build a new cd with almost each update, adn reinstall), my explorer icons often revert to TILE view (I only use LIST view).
Ive unchecked "remember each folder settings", and Ive "applied to all folders". It always worked that way.
It seems to happen randomly.
This is really really annoying

Thanks

has this update been tested with nlite? integrating only this gives the following error when it finishes copying files and wants to save the configuration. This never happened with the 20111110 update

Post by **user_hidden** » Mon Dec 26, 2011 3:00 pm

Adrian,

must be a bad integration or check your source.
something seems corrupted.
that is not an UpdatePack issue.

Adrian · Post by **Adrian** » Mon Dec 26, 2011 3:19 pm

yup,you were right

Post by **5eraph** » Mon Dec 26, 2011 9:43 pm

It's not an update pack issue if you added IE7 or IE8, Adrian. Use an up to date addon for IE7 or IE8.

Adrian · Post by **Adrian** » Wed Dec 28, 2011 11:08 am

yeah i figured later i didn't update a separate ie8 addon

Hi

I want to make an up-to-date install disk, and find that upgrading all the dotnets from M$ site is such a pain after install. This being such a small pack should I assume that I need to look at another pack if I need the dotnets integrated? Thanks!

ricktendo64 · Post by **ricktendo64** » Wed Jan 11, 2012 10:14 am

dotnets, ie8 and wmp11

Thanks for the quick reply ricktendo64

Due to its conciseness, I will take this to mean that if I want any of the above, I need to look at another pack. Please correct me if I misunderstood.

Botus · Post by **Botus** » Wed Jan 11, 2012 1:59 pm

both user_hidden and onepiece do a great job releasing regular (monthly) xp update packs

you can add this update pack and its brings the security patches / other bugs fixes up to date for a std win xp build (with a few extras, see front page u/h gives all the info)

as a next step u can add the parts rick suggests to you new build, search these for addons to build your own customised disc here:

http://www.ryanvm.net/forum/viewforum.php?f=14

http://www.ryanvm.net/forum/viewforum.php?f=7

yes u_h makes a great job making this pack as it is...and having to resist to himself and to others not to force integration of ie8, wmp11, dx, .net and so on...as a matter of fact there is a pack on xable net that has 27 megabytes... and consists only of high priority updates...to me both packs are great, depending on what do you want to attain

Immediately after a fresh install, MU/WU is bugging me to install KB2632503.

Should this be part of this pack or should I be looking elsewhere?

EDIT: A more thorough search has revealed this belongs to IE8.

hi u_h, i get an "unknown hard error system32/ntdll.dll" ,so i check the file in the updated winxp source and found out that the ntdll.dll isn't updated, still the same version.

Post by **5eraph** » Fri Jan 27, 2012 11:30 am

What is the file's version number, mutedchild? The file in I386 should be 5.1.2600.6055. It is the proper version number in both user_hidden's pack 20120110 and OnePiece's pack 5.4.0.

The file in I386\SYSTEM32 should not need updating, and neither x86 pack does so. You can try updating it yourself and see if it works.

Post by **user_hidden** » Fri Jan 27, 2012 1:13 pm

mutedchild

5eraph just replied above.....something at your end i presume as the updatepack has the correct file.

mutedchild · Post by **mutedchild** » Fri Jan 27, 2012 11:37 pm

the file version is 5.1.2600.5512. Actually, i tested my compiled iso on virtualbox before burning it and it doesnt give me that error message but when i burn it and try the actual disc it the error message pops up. Thats why i check the ntdll.dll found out that its different from u_h pack.
EDIT: sorry u_h, i never thought there are 2 ntdll.dll in my source. Thank you user_hidden and 5eraph.

i didn't check your file but if it is older than what is in the updatepack
it will be overwritten.

dudeuk · Post by **dudeuk** » Fri Feb 10, 2012 10:14 am

yours and xable update packs work very well for me..

im using a untouched xp pro sp3 student edition

thanks user_hidden for keeping this update pack alive and updated monthly
your also so quick at releasing your update packs so soon after the hotfixes are out..

do u know where i can get a dot net framework aio 1.1 - 4.0 addon
that installs before t13 or as close to the start of t13
ive got a aio framework 2.0 - 4.0 addon that installs after first boot,

but would rather have framework thats installed before my silent addons install
at t13 as ive got a silent install of WLMessenger 14.0.8117.416 that needs framework at t13 for wlm to install properly..

i am already using your Microsoft .NET Framework AIO ROE x86
would you think by adding your other addon aswell Microsoft .NET Framework 1.1 SP1 may fix the problem..
as i dont know what framework WLMessenger needs to be able to install

thanks in advance for your relpy
