Here's what I do, correct me if I'm wrong:

1) Slipstream SP2 with XP
2) Download hacked files.
3) Apply hacked files by copying it over to the i386 folder
4) Customize if you want
5) Burn CD
6) Apply reg patch

NOTE: If you're creating a unattended CD, you can apply the reg patch from cmdlines.txt. Otherwise, just apply the reg patch after install.

Thanks nolookingca.

BTW, how do you customise, wat are the customisation that can be done?

Color Coded Guide for Newbies v1.1
----------------------
1) Slipstream SP2 with XP using the slipstream guide availabe from MSFN

*optional* you may choose to create an unattended setup CD. unattended.msfn.org

2) Download hacked files.
3) Apply hacked files by extracting it (out of the zip file) and then copying it over to the i386 folder
5) Burn CD
6) Choices:
use option A ONLY if you're doing an unattended install.
2) Option B can be used with any type of install.

• Option A: Apply reg patch through cmdlines. See the MSFN Unattended XP guide for more info. ONLY USE THIS IN AN UNATTENDED INSTALL!
  
• Option B: Apply reg patch after installing Windows RECOMMENDED FOR NEWBIES

The instructions for installing on a already setuped(sp) is repeated countless times here. Please do a search first. They are also available on the first post.

I just meant the usual unattended stuff.
--------------------------------------------------
@ell_o2003:
Step 1) extract it by running this command:

expand filename.sy_ filename.sys

Step 2)
if you're creating a cd, just overwrite the file in the i386 folder. Otherwise, search for it in your windows folder and replace all the files you find (should be around 3 or less) with this program: www3.telus.net/_/replacer

[newuser]

what would i expand the file with (do I do it in a dos prompt) or couldnt I just use zaheers hacked filed which look expanded.

[nolookingca]

sorry for being slow to respond; yes, you do it at the dos prompt.

While most of my files are from Zaheer's pack, the orginal (Zaheer's) is missing several files.

[newuser]

and how essential is the reg patch

[fillalph]

Can someone upload the tcpip.sys file. The link in this thread is down.

Thanks

Hacked Files That I Need For a Slipstreamed Unattended CD
These files are for SP2 Final (Build 2180)

For the files (excluding the reg patch), download my hacked files pack at the bottom of this post.

1) sfc_os.dll (to disable Windows File Protection) http://www.msfn.org/board/index.php?showto...ndpost&p=161269

2) uxtheme.dll (for using custom themes) http://www.msfn.org/board/index.php?showtopic=23589&st=0
Direct Download: See next post

1) Are you aware the sfc_os.dll in your hacked_files zipfile is not the same as the sfc_os.dll mentioned in that thread you mention? I thought you referred to that thread becasue the file there should be supposedly the same as the one in hacked_files.zip? (http://www.msfn.org/...ndpost&p=161269)
2) uxtheme.dll in your hacked_files.zip is not the same file as the one put in "Direct Download: See next post"

I'm confused all these files differ..are you sure the files in hacked_files.zip are the right ones? How can they all differ? Thanks for any reply.

[orson_pl]

hello ...

great work witch this files .... i'm gona try this today ... but i have question ...
i'm allready have sp1 unattend and i'm gona add sp2 to it ... i'm using xplode runing in t-13 [from svcpack.inf] can i add reg part from this point ?? or earlier/later ?? btw. which point is best for installing stuff ??

regards

[nolookingca]

@newuser: the patch is only required if you want to use the termsrv file.

@]Bonkers[: download the file pack at the bottom of the first post. The direct links are only for if you want the files seperately. Please note that you need to download the attached reg file too if you want to use the termsrv file.

@morgoth: they're different because I used better compression.

@orson_pl: I don't think it really matters where you load the reg file. However, you might want to apply it with your other reg tweaks.

Note: Always overwite the files in i386.

[morgoth]

nolookingca: i'm talkin about the UNCOMPRESSED files ofcourse..they do differ so i still dont understand.

The reason i'm trying this hacked tcpip.sys in the first place are the 'No buffer space' available messages mirc gives me after some a few hours after I installed SP2. My FTPclient tells me Connection failed (10055:No buffer space available) then and all internet access is gone. I can't even initialize taskmanager after that. Shutting down most of the stuff i'm running 'solves' this but of course this is not acceptable. It used to happen with SP1 as well but only after a much longer time like 2/3 weeks. I really need a solution to this and the solution is NOT to quit down on network connections or applications I run. It must be some changed settings or system files which is causing this. Any comments are much appreciated.

[morgoth]

Oh i should have added i have more than enough (free) memory (1 Gb) when this problem starts occuring.

[morgoth]

Having installed the tcpip.sys from the hacked_files.zip doesn't solve my problem btw. So it must be other SP2 modifications which are the cause :-(

I dont think rolling back to SP1 will be any real solution cause SP2 is needed because of all fixes included in it. I would much prefer to know what changed with respect to this error and just change that back to SP1 state.

If anyone know anything please help cause it's driving me crazy.

[scankurban]

Can I add termsrv.reg file to setupreg.hiv or Hivesys.inf?

<snip>

I'm running with an unhacked tcpip.sys system with SP2 applied for a while now w/o any FTP problems. It's probably a program issue or some system problem.
What FTP program do you use? I'm using SmartFTP on a system with a unhacked tcpip.sys file without any problems.

P.S. The file difference might be because of the ModifyPE headers I applied so that Setup doesn't complain when used on a CD.

@scankurban: You probably can, but you might need to get help in the unattended forums since I have no experience what-so-ever with the hive files.

[SovereignScorn]

Well, I was working on my s*** all week, and I found out that patching your ntoskrnl with a custom boot screen on the cd is a bad idea...

[DisabledTrucker]

Ok, let me see if I get this right, I:

1. Download the kit from the bottom of the first post.
2. Extract the ".**_ " files to the XPCD\i386 folder.
3. Put the termsrv.reg file in my XPCD\$OEM$\$1\Install folder
4. Call the termsrv.reg file in my CMDLINES.TXT file at the end of the installations.

This would be correct for doing it as an Unattended Setup from CD, correct? This would also keep me from having to place these files in my XPCD\$OEM$\$$\System32 and ~\System32\dllcache folder correct? If this is so, I am going to make an installer that will place these files where they need to go on an UXPCD, so next time I wont have to guess at it.
