[AddOn] Media Center 2005 (English) January 24 2012

[stsaerox]

If you want, i'll give you my project for translating this Media Center addon, after i go home... There are some Localizations Pack, But i think, you can use .MUI files from Vista/7 but only in my project...

I'll appreciate that if you could give this to me. My windows 7 are x64 in English with Greek language pack I

think that I could use them.

I did all of this to a tee, but the resulting install has IE that won't open and WPA is borked. Can you tell me how to either get a real OEM copy of MCE 2005 w update rollup 2 or update the old version I have?

[ricktendo]

This is not a mce updatepack, its for regular XP

Please read the forum rules, we do not discuss stuff like that

Does anyone has a media center 2005 icon, something like 256x256 size good enough to work with rocketdock?

[ricktendo]

192 OK?

That's great ricktendo64 thank you :thumbsup_anim:

[stsaerox]

You cannot patch ehshell.exe without having trouble, if you have patched it with a Vista icon or something run this utility with the following command

sn.exe -Vr ehshell.exe

Do the same if you moddified RegisterMCEApp.exe

sn.exe -Vr RegisterMCEApp.exe

That's old I know which utility is that? the link does not work...

[ricktendo]

You will find it in the Windows SDK, here is the latest

Hey Rick, i compared AX files from your addon with files from SP3 adn here is result. Left - Addon files, Right - SP3 files

[ricktendo]

Yea I know

[George King]

Will be here updated addon?

[ricktendo]

No, it will remain "as is"...the reason I left them is if you install sp3 on a live mce install the files stay the same

All you need to do (if you want) is delete them from the addon

[Botus]

Hi ricktendo64, had an issue with other addons not showing up after I used this addon see "BUT MISSING" below.

using a clean win XP sp3 source

I added separately using RVMIntegrator v1.6.1 beta2.1 each of these

then

Extracting OnePiece_Remove_BrowserChoice_AddOn.cab

then

Extracting OnePiece_Remove_Microsoft_Update_AddOn.cab

then

Extracting OnePiece_Remove_Windows_Search_AddOn.cab

now using 1.491 of nlite first time for me I added

Ricks_XP_to_MCE05_enOCT09.7z (I may have renamed it and some others below but I used last version available)

back to using RVMIntegrator v1.6.1 beta2.1 then added all these in one go each of these

On install of windows....no hang up or error messages

drivers packs all working

media centre working

taskbar shuffle working

adobe 10 working

qlite working

java shows up

defraggler working

BUT MISSING

No start menu option for IE

No quick launch or desktop icon for IE (works if u add it)

No quick launch show desktop (works if u add it)

NO control panel extras completely missing (Kels_CPLBonus_v11.6)

NO right click image resizer option (ImageResizer-Powertoy-v1.2_OrcoXP.cab)

NO hashtab

NO ccleaner

NO WinRAR

NO dvd shrink

I have used everything before and always worked on versions where I did not have media centre addon BUT that was before I used the latest OnePiece pack with all dot net built in.

The day before I did the same but used Rvmi to add media centre because the instruction not to use it are on page 4 or somewhere (Rick can you update the need to integrate with nlite on homepage please?) this failed to install media centre but windows loaded OK and hastab I think was there and working, pretty sure dvd shrink was there but isn't now and ccleaner was definitely missing.

Any ideas what to do next time so the other addons show up please ?

[ricktendo]

An INF is failing somewhere in the process...doing so many different integration passes its hard to tell what is failing

thanks for the reply..... u/h suggested the same reason on ryan's page for OnePiece pack.... i'll have another try

[winXPftw]

i know it's been some time. did anyone ever test this addon with winXP x64?

[ricktendo]

I would not chance it if I were you

[ricktendo]

Added KB2502898

[Mr_Smartepants]

Nice! Thank you Rick!

Is it still dependent on nlite for install or is it now RVMi compatible?

Edited March 11, 2011 by Mr_Smartepants

[ricktendo]

Still nLite, but I gimmy a day or so. If you want I can create a entries.ini file that is rvm compatible (filemove, extrafileedits need to change a bit and I think I need to add i386_compress)

Edit: Added RVMI compatible addon, tested with u_h updatepack, yumeyaos ie+wmp+runtimes+xps and my svcpack .net spanish addon and all worked perfect

M_S, any other addons you need made compatible just let me know and I will try to see what I can do

[ricktendo]

Temporarily pulling the addon because I get error when extracting plus.cab

Need to fix it in both addons

[ricktendo]

Fixed plus.cab corruption issue and reupped both addons

RVMI addon needs to be integrated at same time as updatepack
