Nai Posted August 13, 2008 Posted August 13, 2008 Hello everyone, I have 5 old computers that I'm donating to a local charity. Before I donate them I'd like to wipe and install windows XP on them... I don't want to have to do this five times so I'm looking to create a single installation disk that has all the stuff I want to install... List below. I have seen some of these addons here and elsewhere and was wondering if I should just collect them all and then add them via nlite or if I should try and create a single addon pack??? Advice would be nice....inf advanced install\uninstall RegtweakAcrobat 9 ReaderAdobe Shockwave & FlashCabTool 1.8CalcPlus v1.3 ClearType PowerToyConvert 4.10Damn Nfo Viewer 2.10RC3Direct XGoogle Hacks v1.5 J2SE Runtime Environment Microsoft .NET Framework Version 1.1Microsoft .NET Framework Version 2 SP1Microsoft .NET Framework Version 3Microsoft .NET Framework Version 3.5Microsoft TimeZoneMicrosoft Virtual CD-ROM Control Panel v2.1Microsoft Visual J# Version 2.0MS Font Properties ExtensionMS MakeCab (Vista SP1 Vers)MSConfigMSConfig CPL.dll/.ocx/.ax Register/Unregister RegtweakMSI CleanUp Utility 4.4Open cmd Here v1.0.4Runtimes AddOnServices and Devices v2.7Startup Control Panel 2.8TCP/IP Half-Open Connections = 100 (Default 10)TweakUI PowerToy v2.10.0.0Unlocker 1.8.7User Accounts 2 CPL Windows Installer 3.1 Redistributable (v2)Windows Installer 4.5 Redistributable Quote

Helmi Posted August 16, 2008 Posted August 16, 2008 Hello everyone, I have 5 old computers that I'm donating to a local charity. Before I donate them I'd like to wipe and install windows XP on them...That is very honourable of you, however, unless you are also going to donate five licenses of Windows XP, you shouldn't install it on the PCs, then give them away.While it may still be generous of you to equip the new owners with a system that works out of the box and features a well-known and still popular OS, you'd also make them use warez and they may not even know it!In your case, unless the required licenses are included, you'd be better of either installing no OS at all and just donating the HW or installing a Linux distribution, possibly the newbie-friendly Ubuntu, to keep the new owners out of potential trouble.Anyway, not trying to teach you about software licenses, just giving a friendly advice in case you overlooked the problematic.Maybe the new owners (a school possibly) already owns a couple of licenses for XP and has some to spare - then you could of course preinstall without fear.It may be best to check this beforehand.I certainly do not want a generous donator be accused of spreading warez :/ Quote
