[Camarade_Tux]

Trying right now.

I just completed an install with the latest "final" release (late April). That time, I had no problem with OLEDB32R.dll.

[Camarade_Tux]

60507a did not fix the problem.

[Tomcat76]

This could be the old MDAC update. What's confusing is that the error description mentions OLEDB32R.DLL while its title speaks of OLEDB32.DLL. The latter comes with that MDAC update but the former does not.

OK. 60507b installs Q832483 via SVCPACK again like before.

hi again sirs (Tomcat & tommyp)!
as always, many thanks for your feedback!

i just want to share what i've accomplished over the weekend (i was still using 503c though to make isos) ...

(2) on the early stages of slipstreaming, HFSLIP reported that a particular KB added some folders; i tried taking it out though but the same additional folders (above) still showed up in SOURCESS

(3) i think i already resolved my XPize issue ... it was totally my bad ... ... i was using an XPized SP2 SOURCESS (as XPize has a feature to create a bootable XPized ISO) ... when i just used SOURCESS from HFSLIP, T-13 didn't show anymore the installation prompts of XPize ... oh well, a lesson learned!

(4) would RyanVM's Windows XP Post-SP2 Update Pack work hand in hand with HFSLIP? you see, in 1 of my experimental builds, i checked the contents of the package & removed from the HF directories those files that are in the cab file ... now when i ran qfecheck, it only shows those that were in the addon pack ... & not those in the HF folders ... i've attached a text file for your reference

(5) these 2 don't seem to do anything for the system: Themes_rytukz_VistaCG_addon_v1.0.cab Themes_rytukz_VistaCG_addon_v1.1.cab ... i tried each 1 at a time & i tried even having both ... to no avail (no theme added for me to use) ... checking both files though do not seem to show any pic file ... btw, 1.0 has a bigger size compared to 1.1 due to the difference in compression

(6) would it be possible to replace snap ons like dfrg.msc via HFEXPERT\APPREPLACEMENT?

(7) would the reference (or update at least) for slisptreaming CODECS be applicable to XP too? apparently, the discussion in a different thread is for 2K

(8) is there a difference between letting HFSLIP integrate SP than doing it manually?

(9) just a follow up, i know it might be too much to ask but could the entire process (from start to finish) be generated as a separate report too (so that we can see all the messages/errors/processes that have transpired during the run of HFSLIP)

(10) lastly, about timing the slipstreaming process, would it be alright to request for the start & end times be included in the log as well?

cheers!

(2) Kiki, can you tell us the KB number that HFSLIP reports?

(8) Nope!

(9) I'd like something such as this, but because certain screens are echoed and cleared (CLS), it would not work. Normally, you would do something like HFSLIP_60507b>MESSAGES.LOG at the command prompt, but then the initial screens/messages, etc. won't show up on the screen. However, if you'd like to show any error messages in a file, type HFSLIP_xxxxx 2>ERROR.TXT.

(10) I second this idea !

6. Tread these waters carefully if you do. There are registry hives that get installed for these. Your best bet would be leave that alone (or rip them out). I guess you could always try it out. I never have.

7. You can slipstream codecs on 2k/xp/2k3.

[Tomcat76]

@Kiki

(2) Which hotfix?

(4) I think not. I'll have to check again.

(5) I'll have to see the TXTSETUP.SIF and the SYSOC.INF from that run. If everything's fine there, the problem is with the addon.

hi sirs (Tomcat, tommyp, Super-Magician)!
thanks again for the immediate response ...

my apologies but i actually had the file sitting somewhere here ... I couldn't find it though when i posted earlier ... no i found it ...
it is KB883921 (http://support.micro...kb/883921/en-us)

cheers!

Kiki...

HFSLIP doesn't support MUI updates. I don't think anyone here knows where all those *.mui files should go and there are 8 of each in that hotfix. Do you have an MUI version of XP?

General: Is it actually possible to make a regular WinXP source an MUI-enabled one out of the box?

[Kiki Burgh]

thanks for the update sir!
i will just take this KB out of the HF directory for good.

good morning!

(2) already dealt with (KB883921) ... hotfix removed from the list ...

i think though it would be great to still have the facility for checking of hotfix(es) that add(s) folders

- removed temporary check for hotfix that adds the "04" folders into SOURCESS\I386

60510a does Adobe/Macromedia Flash Player from SWFLASH.CAB. HFSLIP slipstreams it properly but I wasn't able to verify yet if Windows setup complains about a "non-standard system file" and if it's actually being installed.

OK... I see nothing wrong there except that you got duplicate entries in SYSOC.INF because you included both version 1.0 and version 1.1 of the VistaCG addon. But you said you tried it with only one version too and the result was the same. HFSLIP did what it had to do so I don't know what's wrong.

Not sure what you want me to do here. HFSLIP doesn't support the RVM Update Pack...

[Super-Magician]

Tomcat, are you planning to fix the SVCPACK issue that I mentioned in the KB913433 topic?

I will test the SWFLASH.CAB using 60510a. However, keep in mind that if you slipstream this, you do not need KB913433. (For the past few runs, not including the one using 60509b, I've actually been using a switchless installer in HFSVCPACK that I made using your MultiCompiler program.)

Off-topic: Do you have some links to pages with switchless installers on it? I used one list and downloaded a few installers, but I didn't bookmark it.

Sorry... I didn't see that post.

I did some quick testing on an XP box and it looks like the standard Type 2 switches are accepted so I'm using these in the new version (60510b). It should work now. At worst, you'll get a wizard...

just thought it might be worth a look ...
so we can't use ryanvm's cab for HFSLIP ...
it's fine!

7. You can slipstream codecs on 2k/xp/2k3.

would there be an update about this (especially with the new codec packs around)?
thanks!

[tommyp]

Kiki - I'll take it you haven't tested the waters with codecs yet. The codec instructions work for 2k/xp/2k3. If there are newer [dll, ax, etc] files, it's up to you to obtain them. If there's more codecs you need, then you'll have to add codecs. I work with the set listed in my post (except the real media stuff). I have not had issues playing any types of videos (except real media stuff).

[Kiki Burgh]

go it sir ...
have actually tried it once but i wasn't so confident w/ the list of codecs i had ...
i simply followed the instructions there & downloaded the .rar files containing the codecs & the .inf ...
thanks again!

[tain]

@tommyp: I still intend to work on the codecs like we discussed. My excuse is that my free time is very limited.

Right now I am in a hotel in Ohio...had laser eye surgery done yesterday. So you can rest assured that I won't be putting out any codec packs any time soon! Reading/typing isn't easy right now...
