It is really funny to see how many ppl hammer the server.

The server is setup that you can only login 1 time per IP. It will say No more connection allowed for this IP :no: if you try more than once.

If you try to connect more than 3 times within 30 secs, you will get banned automatically.

Set retries to 120secs.

There are 6 accounts :yes:

3 for user: auto / pass: patcher

&

3 for user: autopatcher / pass: rarfiles

I dont want to be an @ss, I'm helping here, but if you get banned, you will have to wait til the server unban you, I wont do it.

Like I said before, I dont have the greatest speed, I'm on DSL, but I'm hosting to help.

Thanks for your patience

My download was corrupt from the HTTP mirror I downloaded it from

Have you (Flishfun and Raptor) considered applying to be mirrored by Planet Mirror?

http://public.www.planetmirror.com/request/

You'ld seriously need to get a dedicated host or offer Autopatcher downloads primarily by P2P to be able to satisfy demand for it! :o

And BTW:

https://www.neowin.net/autopatcher/ is out of date

did you dl from mine? b/c I changed some settings and the web server had to restart quickly, I was also hosting the Jan release on BT, I kinda like BT more :p

it was from http://ztcdesign.com/ap/AutoPatcherXP_Feb04_Full.exe and it only got up to 71.0 MB (74,547,200 bytes) before it stopped.

edit:/ erp that's you, oh well no biggie, I'll just download from eMule.

welp I just did a clean XP Pro install and

ran APXP Feb'04

lost the ability to defrag..won't even analyze

XP start menu config is hosed

webcam is showing up in network connections

and that's just for starters

[edit]oh also I can't play avi or get WMP to play a mp3 without crashing too

and I get blue screens when I try to turn ICF on[/edit]

THIS IS A FRESH CLEAN INSTALL that I installed APXP Feb '04 on and

this hasn't EVER happened to me before

and it shouldn't be happening now

Edited by StAnGeR04
so what do you think it is then Raptor?

if I have to reinstall XP again I will

but if I don't have to I'd rather not

StAnGeR04, I might as well ask... you *did* have SP1 already installed before you ran the AutoPatcher, right?

    • At work we still have a couple of people that use a version of AutoCAD LT purchased in 1994. This predates Windows 95 and works fine on versions of Windows up to XP. Its long since run in an locked down isolated XP VM, accessible via RDP. I did install LibreCAD for them, however they said it was just too different to get to grips with. In all fairness one of them is now 75 and the other is almost 60.
    • On my music making (non internet) PC Sony Acid Pro 7.0 Adobe Audition 2015 Korg Legacy Collection Windows 7 SP1
    • Anyway to download these versions without being on the Experimental builds?
    • Nothing is stopping you from continuing with your testing cadence. If updates are released every 2 weeks instead of 4, and you test once every 4 weeks, the exact same amount of patches will still be available for you in those 4 weeks. For example: Before 4th week - patch 1, 2, 3, 4 After 2nd week - patch 1 and 2 4th week - patch 3 and 4 Still the same amount after 4.
    • Everyone else has said it. I'm gonna say it - you don't know what you're talking about. I do. I have two laptops. One work, one personal. I have access to two more laptops - both personal. At home I manually update my personal laptop when I see on Neowin that there is an update - I carry on and only apply the updates when I am ready. My work one only updates when my workplace decides to send it - I carry on and only apply the updates (when they actually arrive, which is usually days after the release) when I switch off the laptop at the end of the day as usual. The two other personal laptops only get updated when I get to it which is rarely - the people who own them carry on using them until I get to it and update them. All of the browsers on all laptops are configured to restore the tabs when launched. Google and Microsoft have changed from 6 weeks to 4, and it looks like it's going to move to 2. None of these changes affect how any of these browsers on the laptops are used. Not one jot. My advice to you is stop panicking whenever you see an update. Just carry on with what you're doing. This even benefits you in a way - from your comment you sound like you don't like the changes or the frivolous new features - great - then carry on as before!
