I'm having the same problem after using V'ISO Beta6, i'm using Luna Element 5.1 with latest UXTheme and SFC_OS patch (v1.3f), but the start menu icon's right rounded side is simply cut off.

If i simply integrate the theme with RVM Integrator and don't patch up with V'ISO everything is looking fine.

I also noticed that - for me at least - fast user switching does not work after applying V'ISO, only the server-style "specify login name and password" prompt comes up, still fast-user switching is enabled in the control panel... I'm using the beta XP SP3 RC1 build 3264. Am i making something wrong?

Icon-bug: I also found a very little graphical glitch. If i open computer management and use event viewer, the event categories (Application, IE, Security, System) do have good default icons, but when you open any of 'em the "opened" icon state shows the old resource icon, when you open another category for example System log after Security log, the "unopened" icon displays the correct new graphics, so it could be fixed by using the same icon for opened and closed state for a quick fix... see attached pic.

check your registry for

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon]

"LogonType"=dword:00000000

and try to change it to

"LogonType"=dword:00000001

LOL, am i a lazy one. I just did the easiest thing, updated the els.dll.res in the VISO Beta 6.exe ('cause i know its a simple winrar SFX) and i checked the batch file and it doesn't contain any file size or CRC checking :)

The modified viso installer went through without errors. Integrated install went fine without errors.

The "new" event viewer also looks veeery goood :thumbsup_anim: (see attached pic)

:g: LogonType is already set to "1"... so i'm going to troubleshoot nlite settings again i think... (no ctrl+alt+del logon is not checked in nlite, i double checked, but still... no fast user switching).

2 ricktendo64

it would require changing binary encoded eventvwr.msc icons,

just open it as text you'll see what i mean.

here is the changed one

eventvwr.rar 27.8 KB

http://www.filefactory.com/file/23817a/

maybe good to add mmcshext.dll to the pack?

mmcshext.dll.res 24.9 KB

http://www.filefactory.com/file/9b1555/

Thank U for a nice update

I have the default Guest (disabled), Administrator, and "user" user :)

So that makes normally 1 user in total, because Admin is hidden on default when there is a welcome screen, and since .NET is not installed, it hasn't created a user also.

I think i first create a new updated source with the beta 7 and then report back with the results, maybe the error is magically gone :rolleyes:

Hmm... i'm tired, i continue tomorrow, i worked my a$$ off for today...
