If you're doing a CD, DO NOT, I REPEAT, DO NOT extract the files. Just overwrite the files in i386 and the unhacked one won't even exist on the cd.

@SovereignScorn: That good to know, but you know what the mods do to posts that go off-topic

[benjammin]

how to tell what "version" of SP2 you have?

[nolookingca]

These files work with SP2 FINAL

Go to: Start, Run, winver. There should be something like xpsp_sp2_rtm in the middle

other than the termserv.dll and tcp.dll

why would you need these files? what does WFP keep you from being able to do?

and sp2 doesn't support themes? (is that why you need a hacked uxtheme.dll?)

[nolookingca]

uxthemes.dll allows UNOFFICIAL themes (non-M$) to work.

Sfc_os (the WFP file): see this page: http://unattended.msfn.org/xp/wfp.htm

[nolookingca]

IMPORTANT:
Unfortunately, I forgot a reg patch for the sfc_os patch. Please read the following instructions carefully if you want it to work. YOU MUST DO THIS FOR THE SFC FILE!
Don't worry about it if you aren't using that file.

Use this reg file: http://www.mantrasof...disable_wfp.reg

i am getting a "Setup cannot copy the file termsrv.dll" when using the hacked file? do i need to apply the reg patch before installing sp2? i thought that was after you had installed... or why am i getting this error? this is not a slipstreamed windows cd... i just extracted the sp2 setup and copied the hacked files to i386 then ran update.exe under the update folder? is there something else i'm missing?

[XPero]

It is some offtopic (sorry ), but it is an interesting recommendation:

If you are using nLite, DONT replace the original sfc_os.dll and apply the tweak for "Windows File Protection" in nLite. JUST appy the patch over the original one. Why?
If you replace the file for the hacked one and apply the tweak in nLite you will see "Windows File Protection" boxes very often.

thanks, bye

also... i just installed it with the regular termsrv cause of the problem above... but now when i try and use a theme even windows xp it gives me a "rundll" error... what's the freaking deal... this is becoming extremely annoying...

[dkreifus]

I can't seem to find tcpip.sys. I checked the links, they dont work.

[nolookingca]

@benjammin: If you're doing that, it's best that you apply the file after you install SP2. Instructions are repeated quite frequently in this topic.

Thanks for that XPero. I always had that feeling that I forgot something.

@benjammin again: The theme thing probably has something to do with the uxtheme file.

@dkreifus: You have to download the file pack at the bottom of the first post. Remember the reg stuff for termsrv (reg patch attached to first post) and sfc_os (which I forgot to include, instructions available at top of first post)

Sorry for the comfusion, but I am working on a good readme and better formatted post.

[dkreifus]

Thanks. the link wasnt working earlier today

[Please]

When I expand the sfc file I got in this link, its name is sfe_os.dll, is it right?

I believe it has to be sfc_os.dll

[nolookingca]

IF you're doing a CD, don't expand the files. Otherwise, follow the expanding instructions. You must keep the original file name except for the extension. e.g.

expand sfc_os.dl_ sfc_os.dll

Still no Build 2180 for termsrv.dll???
Obviously the build in this topic works, which is build 2055, but still...

This is because this was the last build that let users have multiple remote desktop connections. Later ones had it taken out. When someone posts how to hack the file, you can be sure it will be up here.

Anybody wants to build a readme file?
