Provolino Posted October 19, 2008 Posted October 19, 2008 (edited) 1- If you don't use nLite you can install the Sidebar manually. First install Alky for Applications 1.1, now extract Ricks_WindowsSidebar_Intl_Alky*1.1_AddOn.7z to a sub-folder...right click on Sidebar.inf and rest is self explanatory.Is reboot after Alky installation still needed? I mean on manual install I'm asking because it's not specified in your instructions Edited October 19, 2008 by Provolino Quote

ricktendo Posted October 21, 2008 Author Posted October 21, 2008 No, you need the transparent png support/rendering that ie7 has Quote

macminiintel Posted October 23, 2008 Posted October 23, 2008 Hey... You guys are great... I installed VTP for my laptop, its a T42 running Win XP Pro... But the provided sidebar stinks, so I found yours and it worked superbly... But recently, it wouldn't start, and kept on giving errors, then quitting immediately... Any advice?P.s. Keep up the good work... Quote
ricktendo Posted October 23, 2008 Author Posted October 23, 2008 You have to be more specific, what errors? Quote

ambo Posted October 29, 2008 Posted October 29, 2008 (edited) FULL INTRUCTIONS FOR WINDOWS XP 64-BIT (Admin, make this sticky please)Files needed and order to install1. Copy tskill.exe to System32 Folder.2. Install following: - Microsoft Visual C++ 2005 Redistributable Package (x86).exe |just install BOTH, i dont care y, but it works| - Microsoft Visual C++ 2005 Redistributable Package (x64).exe |just install BOTH, i dont care y, but it works| - Windows Internet Explorer 7 for Windows 64 bit Client-Server.exe - Windows Media Player 11 for Windows XP (64-bit).exe3. Install alky_1.1_trunk_032308-000051_2k3.msi and RESTART is a MUST.4. Right click on Sidebar.inf and press install and RESTART is a MUST (its annoying, but u have to do it AGAIN).5. Go to C:\Program Files (x86)\Windows Sidebar\ Now read carefull: Locate files and DELETE them -sbdrop.dll.manifest -sidebar.exe.manifest -wlsrvc.dll.manifestif they are not there, SKIP this step.Now, press right mouse on following: sbdrop.dll (Patch Vista Library), wlsrvc.dll (Patch Vista Library) and sidebar.exe (Patch and Run Vista Executable) -Sidebar will appear (IVE done that on atleast 5 computers with XP x64 and worked every time), but sidebar will look dodgy. Dont panic, just close it on the taskbar Left Bottom of your screen Press right on Sidebar icon and Close.6. Go to Control Panel Add-Remove Programs, find Windows Sidebar and press CHANGE, the menu will appear with following: The following will re-register Windows Sidebar, Repail Gadget Installer and also repair any Shared Gadgets you may have uninstalled. Keep pressing Ok, OK, OK...7. Go to C:\Program Files (x86)\Windows Sidebar\ Open sidebar.exe and i WILL WORK.I havent modified any files at all. All files are in their original state, download them from original sites:Windows Sidebar v6.0.6001.18000 at http://www.hr-host.com/wincert/ricktendo64...tl_AlkyXP1.1.7zalky_1.1_trunk_032308-000051_2k3.msi at http://www.fromvistatoxp.com/builds/1.1/al...-000051_2k3.rarThanks to creators, whom i dont know Regards, ambo.(29-10-2008)tskill.rar Edited October 29, 2008 by ambo Quote

Cyanide 911 Posted October 31, 2008 Posted October 31, 2008 (edited) Great job guys! But I'm having a problem. I downloaded Alky and installed it. Your faq says to right click on sidebar.inf and everything else is self explanatory. What do I do after right clicking? I dont see anything new in the menu. Am I doing something wrong?EDIT: I got it, I got it. Installing right now! Edited October 31, 2008 by Cyanide 911 Quote

Kelsenellenelvian Posted October 31, 2008 Posted October 31, 2008 And did you install IE7 AND ALKY? Quote
ricktendo Posted October 31, 2008 Author Posted October 31, 2008 You have no PNG transparency support, you get this by installing IE7 Quote

Axenet Posted November 1, 2008 Posted November 1, 2008 I have tried to follow the instructions here to install the Windows Sidebar on an XP SP2 system, but when I try to run it I get the following error message."Sorry. This application atempted to delay-load a library or function that does not exist. Instability may occur."Any idea what to do? Quote
