Typo? [sysoc] nLite Plus=ocgen.dll,OcEntry,nLite146.inf,HIDE,7 File included in package: nLite147.inf Also, WMP11 Slipstreamer 1.3.4 is out.

Thanks for the reply. I thought it was just VMware, I just couldn't figure out why all the other screen savers work.

Any idea what might cause an "Unspecified Error encountered" error on Aurora, Bubbles, Mystify, and Ribbons when installed in VMware? Everything works on my real machine.

Hello, Microsoft Update just made me download an update: KB898461 released on 5/23/2008 before I could continue. I can't find anything on Microsoft's website for this release, so I can't tell you what version it is. I was able to download the update from the catalog as well. I did notice your last update was in April so this update probably applies to your addon. The file itself says it was last modified on 6/21/2005. This is why I looked on Microsoft's website in the first place. All I could find was the previous release, in 2005, Very frustrating. I had the same problem with KB905474, I could only find information and a download (On Microsoft.com) for the previous version, yet, I downloaded a new version either from Microsoft Update, or Catalog.Update.Microsoft.com. The ActiveX Control is still 7.0.6000.569. Anyway. I was wondering if you were planning on including this update in your addon? Also, I wanted to make sure the opuc.dll problem had been fixed?

If it is a Maxtor or Seagate drive you can get help from them. Seagate Recovery Services I'm sure other manufacturers offer similar services.

Is it possible for a program to require an earlier version of C++ runtimes? I use your runtime pack v4.1, I installed a program (Sibelious 5) it's a music program used to write sheet music and such. It installed Visual C++ 2005 redist. Also, I'm not sure what installed it, but Windows Media Player 11 Runtimes were installed as well. I'm running SP3 final. Windows Media Player 11, Internet Explorer 7 and all updates for both are integrated.

It will be for personal use. Basically I need a script that will run a loop through all files in a directory. I'm not sure if you're familiar with the shortcut program I am using. I'm not even sure where I got it anymore. The syntax is: shortcut.exe /F:"%Filename%" /a:c /T:"%Target%" /W:"%Working Directory%" /I:"%Filename%,0" shortcut.exe resides in my system32 directory. if you could use that structure and make the filename, target, and working dir variables I could manage the rest. I started learning C++ a few years ago and stopped because the next class was never offered! I have an idea of what I need but I don't know the syntax for the command line or vbscript. I only learned concepts in C++ we never got to the point where we could use the file system.

I run and maintain a large cmd file to rearrange my start menu and add shortcuts that aren't there to begin with. Is it possible for someone to write a script that uses "shortcut.exe" or similar method to automatically create shortcuts out of all the files in a directory and place them in a designated area? A GUI would be awesome, but I'm assuming too much work for a small project like this. I don't like moving shortcuts around, I would much rather recreate them where I want them. Shortcut works for that but it's a pain to write a command line for every file.

Maybe I'm just doing something wrong? I cannot slipstream any post sp3 updates into office. I have done it successfully with post sp2 updates. I slipstream the updates, everything logs ok but nothing actually gets added to the Administrative Install Files. Has this been a problem for anybody else? any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Right now I have to create a silent installer for all post sp3 updates. Takes up much more space I'm assuming. I have also tried siginets Office Integrator. The same thing happens. Everything seems to slipstream and completes successfully. After installing office, Microsoft Update still lists all the updates I supposedly slipstreamed.

I am familiar with TweakUI. I do change the wallpaper frequently! I would like something to do it For Me when the computer shuts down. Regedit is just as easy as finding what you're looking for in TweakUI.

Is it possible to write a batch file or similar to automatically change the "Original Wallpaper" setting to whatever the "Wallpaper" setting is? It's kind of annoying that when you change your wallpaper and you restart your computer you see the original wallpaper for a few seconds until the desktop loads. [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\Desktop] "Wallpaper"="%SystemRoot%\\Web\\Wallpaper\\bliss.jpg" "OriginalWallpaper"="%SystemRoot%\\Web\\Wallpaper\\xfantasy6.bmp" I don't know programming too well but I think it should be possible to write something like if OriginalWallpaper != Wallpaper OriginalWallpaper = Wallpaper and have it run at shutdown?

Hello, I was just wondering (if you know) why after installing java via your addon, a file named java_install_reg.log is created in my %temp% folder and says: ----------------------------------------- Process start at 04/03/2008-09:56:07. ----------------------------------------- == Start JNICALL Java_com_sun_deploy_util_UpdateCheck_shouldPromptForAutoCheck == ----------------------------------------- Process start at 04/04/2008-10:32:27. ----------------------------------------- == Start JNICALL Java_com_sun_deploy_util_UpdateCheck_shouldPromptForAutoCheck == ----------------------------------------- I have not used Java for at least a couple of days. So, I don't think it's just when it's accessed that it adds to this log.? Also, after installing, If you open java from the control panel auto update is still checked. If you un check it, it asks you if you're sure as if it was really checked before. I just thought it was weird because auto update is turned off in the registry right? I'm using Java 6 update 5.

I would suggest separating the x32 and x64 versions of these. This way someone running a 32bit operating system doesn't have to waste the space or time downloading the unnecessary files. I use x32, my DirectX March08 svcpack style installer is only 42.9MB.

Could someone maybe create an addon of 7zsplit? or maybe give me the code necessary to add "open with" capabilities with executable files? Or, even point me to where I might find how to do this myself I would much appreciate it.

Thank you for adding this. I did realize I can make my own. I'm catching on to all this, it's just taking me a while. Boogy also released .991. I would just use Ricks integrated into nLite version, but it doesn't install my Media Player updates for some reason. I like doing it separate so I can see that everything is working before running an entire nLite session to find that it didn't.

It comes with the version of VMware I am using. Maybe because it's the ACE version it's updated? I'm not sure. I tried installing the tools through runonce not using any switches and it installed fine. I think I got it now. Running final test tonight hopefully.

Hi, any idea if VMware Tools 7 requires .NET 2.0? I can't seem to create a working SVCPACK Add-On. I'm now trying to RunOnceEx it after installing .NET 3.5. If I figure it out, I will offer VMware Tools 7.2.8 Build 59824 as an Add-On on this forum.

.96 is available. Will you update?

One more thing I noticed. When trying to upgrade my VMWare Tools to 7 after installing windows using Rick's VMWareTools6 SVCPACK Add-On, the upgrade installation fails because it can't find the MSI. It is looking for VMwareTools.msi and the file is named VMware Tools.msi. I changed my Setup.ini to fix this (Hopefully).

Thank You so much.. I am using VMWare 6.0.2 Build 59824 ACE Edition. The first time I installed it said my Tools were out of date. Now you have the files for the new version at least.

Hello, I am using VMWare Tools 7.2.8.59824. For some reason I cannot create a working silent installer. I'm not sure what the problem is. I was hoping someone could tell me where I went wrong. Link Dead. deleted

Could you please update to latest version? It still works, but gives "VMware tools is out of date" message. I would appreciate it. If not, that's ok too.

Links are down. Anyone have this file? in any format.?
