Dumpy Dooby

Updated to latest version. I implemented a couple of bugfixes as well that should be present in the official release of 4.4 when it comes out.

<?php die('this thread sucks'); ?> Discuss.

I'd love to use this, but unfortunately your host is down. I can host it if you can get it to me.

I actually took interest in this program when I learned that the company has an official affiliation with the Church of Scientology. I was just curious to see if they were promoting the religion within the program itself. They don't. It seems to work well. I know a guy that swears by it (he's not a Scientologist, just to get that question out of the way). I have no complaints.

Works really well for me. Been using it for about a year now. I tried it with file.it today, however, and it didn't work. The plugins are updated very frequently, though.

UltraDefrag 4.3 UltraDefrag_4.3.0_DumpyDoobyAddons_10.06.15.7z - 196 KB MD5: 12bc9827852ab36ea9b00e5a64b1e05a Installs To: %WINDIR%\UltraDefrag Shortcut: Utilities Last Updated: 20100615 Notes: In previous versions, DriverPacks BASE would delete entries that were necessary for this addon, but I don't believe that will be a problem anymore since I changed the filenames. If you have issues, however, try installing this particular addon after you have already run BASE. License: GNU GPL Language: English; I removed all other language packs. Description: UltraDefrag is an open source disk defragmenter for Windows NT 4.0 and later operating systems. It makes use of the same defragmenting API used by many other windows defrag utilities, both open and closed source. However, UltraDefrag has many features that makes it unique. Firstly it has a kernel mode driver that does most of the work, secondly is the ability to run the application at boot up time in a manner similar to chkdsk. This allows for faster defragmentation time and the ability to defragment all files including system files. It can also defrag single file or multiple directory and can generate a list of all fragmented files. The program is available for both 32bit and 64bit version of Windows running on both AMD and Intel based processor. Features: Defragmentation algorithm was completely rewritten to be more effective. Click <Here> to know more about the algorithm. GUI configuration utility to allow UD to be configured using a graphical window. Very fast defragmentation, the work is done via a kernel mode driver which has an optimal defragging algorithm. Single file or directory defragmentation ability. Select any file or folder in Explorer and choose the appropriate context menu item to defragment them. Very small engine written in pure C. PortableDefrag can be installed on demand which can be carried around in USB storage devices and used without any installation. Nice graphical interface - compact and functional. Safety, because the file moving is accomplished with Microsoft's own Defrag API. Ability to generate html reports of fragmentation status. Ability to include/exclude files based on simple filters.

No problem. I'm working on integrating an offline defrag driver into my Windows XP setup, and I wanted it available during PRESETUP.CMD to instantiate it on next boot so that my ROE installs are applied to a freshly defragged partition. Anyway, to accomplish that I had to learn all of the registry flags for the HiveInf files, and it took me a while to find that info so I figured I'd share it here. Probably too niche for most people, but at least the info can be easily found now. edit- As it turns out, those are all on gosh's website. I spent so much time looking for those. aww. lol.

You can add INFs during textmode by adding entries to [HiveInfs.Fresh], [HiveInfs.Upgrade], and/or [HiveInfs.Fresh.RemoteBoot] (You should hopefully be able to figure out the meaning of those) in your TXTSETUP.SIF file. When you do this, the flags for registry entries changes slightly. Here they are. REG_SZ - 0x00000000 REG_SZ_NOCLOBBER - 0x00000002 REG_DWORD - 0x00010001 REG_DWORD_NOCLOBBER - 0x00010003 REG_MULTI_SZ - 0x00010000 REG_BINARY - 0x00030003 REG_EXPAND_SZ - 0x00020000 REG_EXPAND_SZ_NOCLOBBER - 0x00020002 REG_NONE - 0x00020001 VALUE_NOT_SET - 0x00000010 VALUE_NOT_SET_NOCLOBBER - 0x00000012 The "noclobber" alternatives above indicate that if the registry entry already exists, it will not be overwritten. Obviously this is only useful if you're running an Update. On a Fresh install, it probably won't matter if you use a noclobber flag or not; the result is more than likely the same. A couple others that are more rare, and I'm not sure exactly under what conditions they ought to be used: REG_SZ - 0 REG_SZ - [empty flag] REG_BINARY - 1

If you don't mind sharing the source, can you include it? Generally the easiest way to just embed it into the file using the following syntax: FileInstall(@ScriptFullPath,@TempDir & @ScriptName) I'd like to create an output that isn't dependent on writing to a file and then displaying in Notepad. edit- Just to disclose my intentions, I'm thinking of doing something along these lines... $swid = "display-drive-space";This is the ID. This is commonly used to prevent duplicate instances of the same program. Global $output_container = GUICreate($swid, 800, 600) Global $output_field = GUICtrlCreateEdit("", 2, 2, 796, 596, $WS_VSCROLL) GUICtrlSetFont($output_field, 9, 400, 0, "Courier New") GUISetState() GUICtrlSetData($output_field, "Hello World!" & @CRLF, 1) GUICtrlSetData($output_field, "Hello World Again!" & @CRLF, 1) That should be a good start for getting to show up in its own window, but it won't close properly just yet. You need to add a "Do Until" condition in a custom Close() function. Well, that's how I do it anyway. But don't add all of that verbatim. There should be some error checking, and there might be a way to dynamically change the dimensions of the output window and make the overall appearance a bit nicer. You follow?

That was during the RAM bottleneck days. That was when the determining factor of a branded computer's price was its memory capacity, rather than its video card, CPU, storage capacity, or motherboard functionality (certainly all of those played a role, but the importance of RAM was marketed like crazy; even to this day, Joe Computer Dinosaur says, "How much RAM does it have???" when the real bottleneck these days is hard-drive speed). Naturally, it sparked a lot of snake oil salesmen claiming to have cures for inadequate RAM. How's that for a trip down memory lane? I feel old.

Thanks for the info. I didn't realize that these programs were gimmicky. Are there any third party memory managers that you know of that do a better job than the system's memory manager?

Is this upgradeable? If Microsoft pushes a Windows Media Player 11 hotfix, will the hotfix install properly without ruining this? I would assume that there would be some situations in which an upgrade could revert the appearance to more of a WMP11 look (by replacing DLLs that contain the resources that make the pretty colors and whatnot). If this were to happen, would the user wind up with a half-11, half-12 look, depending on which resources have been replaced by the hotfix? I'd rather not use this if security updates are going to send everything to Hell in a hand-basket.

If there is any interest, I can turn this into a SVCPACK addon quite easily. DefaultInstall already works on it. It would certainly take up less space on the disc. Thoughts?

Nero Micro v8.3.13.0 Download: http://xp.xpdnc.org/files/DumpyDooby_Nero_...ro_Eng_AddOn.7z md5: d477a1feb42c79f76792ccba5c2db294 edit- just now re-uploaded. had to remove my serial number. bloops.

I took the liberty of updating this to the beta one. I adhere to RogueSpear's "multimode" standards, so this will require the parameters -ai (silent) or -ai1 (passive) in order to install unattended. A few differences: 1. Current "Explorer" (e.g., winkey+E) and "ShellBrowser" (e.g., dbl-click "My Computer") layouts are backed up. 2. My preferred settings and layout are imported upon installation. 3. Includes an uninstaller, which restores ShellBrowser and Explorer layouts. Download: http://xp.xpdnc.org/QTTabBar_QTTabBar.exe I didn't fully test it, but it should work without issues. Let me know if there are any problems and I'll look into it.

I just perused the batch file. It looks like it is extremely redundant. It would probably be easier if you just used the Call commands as pseudo-functions. Example snip-it below: Call :MeatAndPotatoes msobmain dll MSOBMAIN DL_ 45 Call :MeatAndPotatoes msoeres dll MSOERES DL_ Call :MeatAndPotatoes msoobe exe MSOOBE EX_ Call :MeatAndPotatoes mspaint exe MSPAINT EX_ :MeatAndPotatoes Set name=%~1 Set ext=%~2 Set big=%~3 Set com=%~4 If NOT [%~5]==[] Title XPtsp script Progress %~5%%%... If NOT Exist "i386\%big%.%com%" Set com=%ext% If NOT Exist "i386\%big%.%com%" Goto :EOF %xp% "i386\%big%.%com%" "%tmp%\%name%.%ext%" >nul If Exist "i386\%name%.%ext%" Del "i386\%name%.%ext%" >nul %rh% %ao% "%tmp%\%name%.%ext%", "%tmp%\%name%.%ext%", "%res%\%name%.%ext%.res",,,&Echo patching %name%.%ext% %pe% -c %tmp%\%name%.%ext% >nul Set com=%~4 %cab% /D CompressionType=LZX /D CompressionMemory=21 "%tmp%\%name%.%ext%" "i386\%big%.%com%" >nul Goto :EOF The "Goto :EOF" will not cause the batch file to close. "MeatAndPotatoes" is instantiated as though it were a separate file all together (but it's not). This can also be helpful if you want to keep log files of what your batch file is doing. Syntax is precisely the same way that you would send STDOUT to any other file ... like so: Call :MeatAndPotatoes msobmain dll MSOBMAIN DL_ 45>>LogFileForLogging.log Call :MeatAndPotatoes msoeres dll MSOERES DL_>>LogFileForLogging.log

I am having a really difficult time deciding on which driver to use. Can someone help me out here? The following three drivers have been released or updated within the last week so it's not like any of these are no longer in development. Halp? 1. http://www.fs-driver.org/ 2. http://sourceforge.net/projects/ext2fsd 3. http://blog.tiensivu.com/aaron/archives/32...P-and-2003.html They all seem like viable options. Does anyone know which one is best? There are also RVMi (or nLite, if you swing that way) add-ons for each of these.

This keeps failing for me. Textmode setup keeps asking for the files. I'm guessing it's because RVMi is compressing the files so the names are changing. Would that effect it? Thoughts?
