Only got 1 error on XP Home. dpcdll.dll in setuperr. When I looked at it, the dll description wasn't in english. *shrug* I can confirm the dpcdll.dll showing up in setuperr on XP Home SP3. It's been around since at least version 1.2.7 (which is the latest version I have integrated on a test rig) Ho...

RogueSpear also just posted an installer for CAPICOM on his site, in the Runtimes thread.

Kel: You've got quite a serious bug in v4.5. Before using any addon, I run it through FGCBA to check it. When I ran 4.5 through I got the following errors and warnings: !- 24 warning(s): - msvcrt10.dll is referenced 2 times in the CopyFiles sections of Runtimes.inf - [DLL.Register] section reference...

Jondar you need to install 7zip 7-Zip is installed on this PC. How is it checking for it? Some registry entry? EDIT: Seeing that 7-Zip 4.60 was just released, I took advantage of that, and downloaded and run the MSI installer for it. Problem solved. It turned out that I'd added 7-Zip to my install ...

I seem to have a bit of a perplexing problem with the latest FGCBA (0.897). I recently reformatted and reinstalled my PC with XP Home SP3, and FGCBA was copied over as I normally do (in a subfolder of %WinDir% called "cmd" which is then added to my PATH variable). However, whenever I try to use it t...

First of all, kal: Thanks for this little tool, it's proven useful in my latest test build of a personal addon very similar to your unix utils addon. I have one question though. Is it possible to have the added entry added to the start of the variable? i.e. PATH= new_entry ;existing_entries instead ...

Nirsoft has the coolest utilities, but the ugliest icons :D Heh, have to agree there. I think Nir Sofer designs his icons based on the oldest version of Windows that the program runs on, i.e. if the program runs on Win9x, it gets a Win9x compatible icon... and nothing else :) I've made Vista-esque ...

This not a bug. This is the correct (proper) formatting for the INF according to Microsoft INF rules. Everyone should use quotes properly. When IniParser saves an INI. It normalizes the INF to use proper INF formatting rules. (a little like TidyHTML) If the silent installer doesn't work, then it co...

Hmm... XP SP3 already has DirectX 9.0c... It may have, but it doesn't have the files that are included in redxii's DirectX addon (like all the d3dx9_*.dll and xactengine*.dll files). redxii's addon specifically adds those files, and from my tests does absolutely no harm to include them on a SP3 dis...

I just did a test integrate of this in a VM run, and I think I've found a typo in the msdia90.inf file.

Is this addon OK to use on a SP3 install?

I ask because SP3 has updated versions of some runtimes, and I don't want to use this to overwrite newer versions if I can help it. :)

Anyone used it on a SP3 install and had any problems?

[quote="roirraW "edor""]I haven't heard anyone report any problems of just *installing* SP3 on a running system, but maybe that's because noone on here has done it because they've all slipstreamed it. :P[/quote] I'm not sure that I can call it a problem, per se, but I installed SP3 on my main workin...

The scrambled characters you see in that image are due to the fact that the new Notepad2 (2.1.19) does not support the hacks that code65536 did to his 2.0.18.3 version, which allows the registry-hack method of replacing notepad.exe with notepad2.exe. What is happening is that Notepad2 is trying to l...

Also v2 of the I386 true addon does not process in integrator 1.5rc5, whereas v1 works fine.

@Nonno:

Can you pass on my thanks to OnePiece for this addon. I integrated the OnePiece_IE7AddOn_1.8.0_ENU_8.3Mod addon in my latest CD and I'm happy to say that it worked exactly as I expected, so thanks!

The first (Royal_Theme_Addon_4.6) and third (RVC_Addon_1.1) download links seem to be broken. Could you fix them please as I'd like to download these versions, as I have older versions of these addons and would like to get the updated versions.

Thanks in advance

First of all, Mrs. Peel, thanks for the addon! I missed Quick View when I made the "jump" (or is that downgrade? *grin*) from 9x to XP, so it's nice to have it back! One thing though, I was looking at the Vienna Products homepage, and they mention something on this news article page about a "final v...

Jondar

I have to echo RogueSpear's comments about being thankful. I now have about three weeks or so to finalise and test the UACD I'm currently building before I have to worry about updating. :)

Jondar

I'd just like to point out that even though Virtual PC complains that it's not compatible with XP Home, it will run on it. I have Home OEM, and I've been running Virtual PC for use in UACD creation (and for a retro DOS/Win3.1 setup) for over two years without a problem. So basically, you can ignore ...

Just for the record, installing IE7 final solved the problem. Which I found interesting, as a comparison of the shdocvw.dll in IE7final and the hotfix held identical version numbers. This leads me to think that Ryan's idea of some screwy registry setting or similar was to blame. Anyway, at least the...

Jondar

Just decided to try another experiment with this:

Since I got KB924496 through MU (not integrated via the Pack), I decided to uninstall it. After the required reboot, the problem disappeared.

I reinstalled the same hotfix again. The problem comes back.

Ah well...

Jondar

If I had to wager a guess, I'd bet on bad registry entries. Try unregistering and re-registering shdocvw.dll. Just tried the suggestion you mentioned. Unfortunately, didn't work :( It's not a major problem for me personally. Merely a minor annoyance, but still... a fix for the problem would be nice...

Jondar

Has anyone seen this problem and nows maybe to solve this ??? I can confirm that I have this exact same problem. Only cropped up a few days ago.

At least when I called I didn't have to answer a 1000 Q's just an automated service that took about 5 mins or so.

CKRename is a great little "applet". Use it all the time.

I am curious though, Xable said there was no regentries, but wouldn't addin...

Can you check this theme on your server please? I've tried several times to download it, each time ending up with a 774Kb file with a hash of AE76DA39B8071CB2F26E67E8C4F0BEA6 which is coming up as corrupted in WinRAR tests.

That line seems to imply that Notepad2 doesn't have line numbers. It does, it's just not enabled by default. Ctrl+Shift+N in Notepad2 will turn on line numbering, and I'm sure there's a regtweak to do it as well.
