AutoStreamer Released! (v 1.0.29)

[naap51stang]

Ok, here's a new one.........I downloaded this, and this has to be the first false positive

that I've received from my antivirus software (NOD32).

it says "probably unknown NewHeur_PE virus"..........

tried downloading from the link and from softpedia, both say the same thing.

:alien:

[gate1975mlm]

Where is the download link?

[xxdesmus]

works perfectly with SP2 RTM...made my slipstreamed XP pro disc ;)

Probably due to Heuristic behavior (words or phrases that are attibuted to files that contain viruses or files with odd filetypes or multiple dots ie "files.doc.zip"). A lot of AV's use this type of scanning. If you know its virus free and you trust the source, rock on.

[Zepolcire]

For those of you wondering WHY it has a PRE-SP2 Identifier.. here is the logic behind it:

The File itself is a Pre-SP2 Patch, which means it gets installed on OS's Prior to SP2. You wouldn't be going to install The Final SP2 on a os already with the Final SP2 hence Pre-SP2. ;)

So this means its Pre-SP2 that can be installed on a GOLD XP or a XP with SP1 already installed.

I think this about CLEARS this up on why it says Pre-SP2.

Autostreamer is doing the correct thing its not a bug. (Y)

Aaahh. Of Course. That makes sense. Thanks xStainDx.

No what would be really awesome is if this program supported Office XP/2003 because it is pretty much the same method as slipstreaming XP.

Thanks for the post ( paratrupr ) , will now try installing............

Hey gang,

Tried AutoStreramer for the first time last night after downloading SP2 and it worked like a charm. Think it took about 5min. tops to complete the whole process. Burned it to a CD, rebooted, installed my new BIOS update, restarted and then booted from the CD and did a clean install. Gonna pick up where I left off last night when I get home from work and finish installing the drivers and getting it back up to speed...just in time before my copy of DOOM 3 arrives!!!! Whoo-hoo!! :D

Anyway, Raptor & whomever else that put together AutoStreamer...great job guys!! Worked like a charm and is another fine edition to my "must-have progs" toolkit.

Later.

Used AutoStreamer and did a clean install last night. Worked perfectly. For those having problems with it, I found one just needs a little patience using it. It doesn't give a lot of feeback in terms of whether or not it's working, so just wait a bit.

This clean install with SP2 slipstream rocks. I loaded SP2 before the clean install and it's faster with a clean install even though my previous install was only 6 months old, I defragged and cleaned my registry, etc on a regular basis. Any clean install is going to be faster, but this is much faster!

Just my 2 cents.

[cottonstar]

I have XP Home Edition (Upgrade) and usually when I re-install, I have to insert my copy of Windows 2000 to confirm that I have a full version of Windows.

However, I used AutoStreamer to slip in SP2 and did a clean install this evening and it never asked me to insert a previous Windows disc....everything went smoothly...no problems, and the speed difference is astonishing.

[NM2K24]

I noticed the speed difference during the clean install as well. Probably helps that SP2 has updated drivers to help it detect the most common hardware (ATI, Intel, etc.)

NM2K24 :cool:

[Tha Bloo Monkee]

This isn't going to leave ANY tag/signature etc of the maker of this program on the disc, will it? (like saying "Slipstreamed by AutoPatcher" on the CD or on an OS file) Just making sure...

[TierOne]

Nice, anyone know what theme's used in those screenshots?

[SteelTrepid]

(like saying "Slipstreamed by AutoPatcher" on the CD or on an OS file)

Well for one thing the program is called AutoSTREAMER, and no it doesn't do anything like that.

I'm glad that everyone is enjoying the program. I came up with the idea and asked him if he had time to create it for my project. I helped him with some of the aspects of it but did no programming. Just offered suggestions on how it should work, researched a few things, beta tested it, and helped with the comments in the dialouge boxes, etc. I can't wait until he gets back from vacation to see how many people he has helped with this.

Give the guy a medal! :D

Yeah, it is so much faster I knew it was not my imagination. Running a P4 2.6C (not celeron, 800 MHz bus) in a RAID 0. XP has supported hyperthreading, but whatever they did, it made it more hyper!

A few spec are below for reference.

ABIT IC7-MAX3, BIOS 1.6

Awesome Program!

Worked smootly with slipstreamed XPPro SP1 CD. :)

[rdburke]

The program seems to work flawlessly. The whole process only took about 7 mins. What I need to know is if I have a Slipstreamed SP1 CD do I use it to make a SP2 CD or do I just use my Original XP CD and Slipstream it?

Thanks,

great prog but too bad it doesn't work with the german version of windows. :no:

[Bearded Kirklander]

When this program works 100% with integrating SP2 into an existing SP1 CD, I'll be all over it like hair on a monkey. :D

[GR7]

weird. i downloaded this program and made a slipstream of sp2.....when it finished, it gave me an error of Permission Denied.....error 70 i think.....but the ISO was there. i burned it and its bootable.....im formating my test box with it to see if it actually works.

the program is great, i might add. lets hope they fix the bugs soon.

[happy1]

Allow a total noob who can't read a tutorial or MSDN article to create a slipstreamed CD.

OOOOOOOOH

I used a slipstreamed SP1a CD but I'm sure you could use either as SP2 contains all the updates included with SP1a.

Absolutely fantastic! Fast and easy, who needs anything else, THX
