@ BenWyldeZX try deleting and installing this gadget to make sure its fully installed, if it does not work that probably means it does not support either your language Windows or Messenger.

@ martinix I will update the Server 03 version and upload it shortly

Server 03 Updated

I've got an error when i tried to use the Live Messenger Gadget from the package, waht's wrong with that?

this is the translation for you Rick :thumbsup_anim:

"Die Anwendung konnte nicht richtig installiert werden. Klicken Sie auf OK, um die Anwendung zu beenden"

The application could not be installed properly. Click on OK, to finish the application

Too bad, that MS had not implemented a function, to keep the sidebar only on the desktop.

thanks alot to everyone on this project, this is awesome, there are so many cool gadgets that I can use now! Thanks again!!!!

[ricktendo]

Next version I will include Gadget Installer

Sorry but I get a Delay Load Error Warning when trying to open sidebar, but I can't install the Wireless Lan API Hotfix windowsXP_KB940541_x86_ENU.exe because there is a language mismatch with my german system which prevents it from installing. I tried to find a german version of the hotfix, but without success.

What can I do?

[cihan]

please download msxml 6.

[zupipo]

The installation of msxml 6 failed, because a higher version is already installed. And now?

[ricktendo]

German version of Wireless Lan API Hotfix http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details...71-158efd1ada50

If you use this German updatepack you wont need the wlan in my addon http://sereby.org/index.php?cat=downloads

[zupipo]

Thanks! I didn't find the German version because of the different number. I have installed it and restarted windows, but i still can't start the sidebar repair. I get the same message as before:

When I try to run internet related gadgets like the weather gadgets I get this error message:

My former sidebar with VAIO worked fine, the installation of Alky didn't show any error.

What do I do wrong now? :icon_question:

[ricktendo]

You did nothing wrong m8. My INF is checking for the new WLan Hotfix KB940541 (a updated version of KB918997) before it registers the files, I recommend you use the Sidebar Installer instead of this AddOn.

It does not check to see if wlan is installed because its compatible with both XP and 2003.

[zupipo]

Thanks a lot! :thumbsup_anim: That made it.

[acen2006]

Thanks for your hardwork dude.

I'm still using the "older" version of the Sidebar...

Are there any significant improvements in this Vista SP1 version - in terms of performance, etc.?

Thank for your great work and istructions.....that i follow...but when windows xp sp2 start i received this error message:

There was an error in sidebar. The application will closed

....I follow your manual install istructions:

- Uncompress the AddOn to a sub-folder

- Copy Vista Fonts to "%WinDir%\Fonts" (Optional: rename sinheix.ttf to simhei.ttf)

- Install Alky for Applications then Log Off, then On (or Reboot)

- Right click on Sidebar.inf and choose Install (you will get popup, this is OK)

- Browse for regsvr32.exe in "%WinDir%\system32", hit Select then OK (you will get another popup)

- Finally browse to the location of Sidebar.cab, hit Select, OK again (wait awhile for it to install then Reboot or Log Off and On again)....

....i install also WindowsXP_KB940541_86 for ITA system

Thank for help
