  1. Client may not be able to use the relative path of the bootrom, you may need FQ path. I read that it is possible to omit option 66 and put FQ path to the bootrom in option 67. I haven't worked with multi-site PXE in a long time, I've moved onto using different methods and I don't even use those DHCP option anymore.
  2. The forum does show the account locking and also the LA IP address. However, that login attempt was using the same device you normally use. Furthermore, when you changed your forum password, it was done using a Moreno California IP address, which you continued to use that same day (6/17) and even made posts, such as this one: https://msfn.org/board/topic/184737-mental-health-awareness-month/page/19/#comment-1247114 The CA IPs that were used that day are registered to the same ISP as the ones you normally use, so it appears to the forum that it was your own device that generated the failed attempts.
  3. I forgot to mention in regards to the previous issues with Far Cry series games. I never got Reshade to work to a point where a game would actually launch but now the point is moot. Ubisoft has moved to a new version of Ubisoft Connect that no longer generates any sort of error. The process just exits (cleanly it appears, as there is no crash log) after a few seconds. I can't do any more troubleshooting or testing with it because I just decided to uninstall all of those games.
  4. If the system drive is not being connected via USB or other external means, and you are connecting with SATA, make sure the board supports hot-plug on the SATA port. Normally I would just use a USB enclosure for an instance where I don't want to have the disk connect at boot time.
  5. Any place we would go to for refuge cannot be a place we just pick in this thread, but a place where the forum owner or admins allow us to go. That being said, MDL is not a place we can have an official relationship with due to the nature of the content they post there. RyanVM was a good place in the past as there was enough user crossover (particularly staff and older users) and Reboot.pro is a site similar in that way at least. They aren't always particularly reliable either and still somehow do not use HTTPS which may turn off a lot of people. The MSFN twitter was the first place I looked (out of habit for when a site isn't working) but it really hasn't been viable for things like this. With the exception to the tweet made 4 hours ago, there hasn't been anything done with that account since 2019. The only other official place I am aware of is the Steam group but it isn't utilized afaik.
  6. I posted on Reboot.pro about it, but since Xper doesn't post anywhere, there isn't really a place to get reliable info relating to the server. There just are places we can congregate temporarily if need be.
  7. BTW it seems that page is now deleted entirely.
  8. I went to Texas one time, spent a month in Chase which is outside of Houston. Looking at that town on a map is one thing but in person it is completely different. It had the same amount of stuff as other towns as you'd expect but everything is just spread out. Not having a car meant I had to walk everywhere. Not a great experience really.
  9. That is not a shell in the way that Explorer is and is not an Explorer replacement. See the instructions on that site about how to use it: (3) Hide your Explorer desktop icons (i.e. right click on the Explorer desktop -> View -> Deselect "Show desktop icons"). (4) If you so wish, hide your Explorer taskbar (nb. you can always quickly bring it up from hidden when needed by hitting the Win key), and maybe also disable "Show taskbar on all displays" (on multi-monitor systems). (5) Doubleclick on Blackbox.exe in the previously selected folder to start xoblite. It is using Explorer to run this program.
  10. Does this mean that nLite is an OS too?
  11. That last migration I worked on (2 years ago) at a medical device manufacturer, there were still a handful of XP systems there. They were used to operate some laser systems. The older models used software that worked with XP and the newer models had software that worked with Windows 7, and the even newer models supported Windows 10. These laser systems cost more than a house, so I am sure there is some financial reason why they had to use different versions. Maybe the manufacturer is at fault there, who knows.
  12. Atlas isn't an OS and currently doesn't appear to have any warez in it. The way the site talks about ISOs and what-not, it makes it seem like perhaps it used to host or link to an OS ISO before. While these projects are nice, I am surprised that there still isn't any group of people making Shells for OSes. After all, Explorer is 99% of the problem with Windows 10 (or 8 or 11) and running a custom shell solves all of those issues.
  13. Change it back to AHCI, then boot with F8 and choose the option to disable automatic restart on system failure. Now if it is getting a Bugcheck, you can see what it is.
  14. It was dead for 9 years until you bumped it.
  15. Title edited from "PC" If this is not the question, edit the title to something else.
  16. No, this is not acceptable. Don't bring it up again.
  17. Win7 will never be abandonware as long as Microsoft exists. Abandonware is to be products that have an abandoned license or copyright, and has nothing to do with whether a product is actively being sold or supported. I personally don't care about the Thorium website, or the developer, or the browser, or warez, or whatever else. The forum has rules about what can be posted about and what is directly linked to, and this is only because in the past we have received complains and nasty letters from lawyers about things. So we don't allow those types of posts as a measure to protect the forum from disappearing entirely. And sure, you don't need to point out the gray area that exists with the rules, with regards to extended kernels or updates (updates are the big thing really) so let's hope MS continues to not care about those things so we can still talk about them here.
  18. Do not post a link to that website and do not mention the types of things that are on that website. Even mentioning the names will cause those terms to be indexed by search engines and leading to here. So don't do it, use a generic term. I edited some posts to remove the specific terms and replace them with warez.
  19. It won't work forever. It will only work until Steam changes something on their backend that uses a web tech that isn't supported in whatever their internal browser uses.
  20. At the time I had posted before, I was beyond "build from last week" as my Steam had updated on Wednesday night. It updated again on Friday and then the red message appeared.
