driver07: you could use the recovery partition providing there's an installation share in there... look for a folder which contains I386 subfolder etc. You can also try the CDs. if AutoStreamer detects it, i guess you can carry out the procedure.

rrtn: no, AutoStreamer was not tested on 64-bit platforms. That would require someone with 64-bit XP to test it.

Yikes, double post! To answer your question: I could, but at this time, it's very hard to even consider it, mainly because I would have to find people with Office so they can test it.

Hey Raptor,

If you do descide to do office I can test 2000 and 2003 probably XP ad well.

Hi, I just DL'd AS 1.0.30 (Full), and have never had a version before this. Running the executable returns the following:

Run-time error '372':

Failed to load control 'CommonDialog' from Comdlg32.ocx. Your version of Comdlg32.ocx may be outdated. Make sure you are using the version of the control that was provided with your application.

Hmm do I need something else to make this work? This is running on XPSP2. Thanks in advance.

Download the following file in the AutoStreamer folder:

http://neowin.hurmoth.com/content/index.ph...&catid=71&id=29

Then click Start>>Run and type regsvr32 File location\COMDLG32.OCX then click "OK".

Did you download the Installer version or the .zip version?

Example:

If you downloaded the installer version of AutoStreamer, then you would download this file to C:\Program Files\AutoStreamer\. Then go to Start>>Run and type regsvr32 C:\Program Files\AutoStreamer\COMDLG32.OCX and click "OK". A message should popup telling you the you successfully registered the OCX file and then try to run AutoStreamer again.

Quick little question. I used Auto Patcher from the 1st page of this topic.

It done its thing. Created the .ISO

Burned using Nero (Disk At Once) That completed, no problem.

Rebooted, just to see if the CD will work on Boot from CD. But nope.

Kinda seems like the boot loader got missed out or something. Any 1 willing to shed light?

AutoPatcher or AutoStreamer? AutoPatcher just patches Windows 2000 or Windows XP systems. AutoStreamer slipstreams service packs into a Windows share.

[EDIT] Do you have your BIOS set to boot from CD?

Swiftie, what does the cd contents list? Not a .iso file i hope... You must burn the ISO file. (i.e open nero, recorder -> burn image, and select the iso!)

584981954[/snapback]

Yep, done that. Burnt image. CD contests lists 5 folders, 7 files.

When burning in Nero. Would it really matter wether I select Dick-at-once or Disk-at-once/96

Because I used Dick-at-once :cool:

DAO (Disk-At-Once) should do. Now check the boot priority in your BIOS. CD should be the frist device to boot from. If you are unfamiliar with the system BIOS, read the motherboard's manual to check how to access that specific option.

Ooopzzz. Meant AutoStreamer, been reading up on the AutoPatcher activity and that's what was stuck in my head. :blush: & yes I have the BIOS configured to boot from CD 1st.

BIOS been like that since I built the system :cool: But I've double checked anyway and nothing has changed. I think its the CD-R I used thats f*cked because if I try it on the laptop. I can see the "Press to boot from CD msg" but pressing a button just freezes everything and remains on the POST screen.

Going to try burnin a new CD-RW to save myself on some disks and test again. Will let you know if it was just a CD error when I return ;)

Couldnt EDIT but would just like to say that it was a CD-R problem.

Using a CD-RW to burn the ISO image worked all flawlessly.

So looks like its dodgy CD-R's & hope they dont all end being coasters :angry:

Thanx to all who tried to help. & specially nw_raptor for the creation :)

Hi

I have been reading the board and have seen that Dell XP Pro can not be used for slipstreaming without "Cleaning up".

Can anyone tell where to start please as I have slipstreamed my XP Home edition and would like to Slipstream Pro As well. :D

Thanks.

Has anyone seen this problem? I installed Autostreamer via the installer version. When I launch it It starts the windows installer fot Roxio EMC 7, why? If I hit the cancel button on the installer 3 or 4 times Autostreamer starts & runs fine. It does this on 2 of my desktops but not on my laptop. I do have Roxio EMC 7 installed on the machines in question. Any Ideas?

Thanks,

Len

why not have auto streamer fix cds w/ updates folder? its real easy...well this works with OEM cds...(tested on a Dell OEM...but the way this is done is standard, so any OEM with hotfixes this should work on)

1)go into I386

2)Delete SVCPACK Directory

3)Delete SVCPACK DL File

4)Delete SVCPACK.Inf file

5)Copy my two files to your i386 folder ( SVCPACK.DL_ and SVCPACK.IN_ )

6)Continue slipstream as normal

7)Burn!!!

Dopamine has been designed for Windows 7, Windows 8.x and Windows 10 and plays mp3, ogg vorbis, flac, wma and m4a/aac music formats quite well. The best part?

Dopamine 3.0.6 changelog: Fixed Manually edited album covers are overwritten on the next collection refresh Fixed AppImage package not working on modern GNU/Linux distributions Deleting song from playlist sometimes fails Playback controls only work when clicking on upper half of the buttons It's unclear that files must be tagged with an external ReplayGain scanner (for example rsgain) before normalization can take effect. Change to Artist or Album tags is not reflected in the song list view nor in the Now Playing information ReplayGain issues Smart playlist filters ignore text containing accents or other special characters Some MP3 files trigger an "MPEG header not found" error due to a too-narrow initial MPEG header scan range Changed Updated the Vietnamese translation Download: Dopamine 3.0.6 | 122.0 MB (Open Source) Links: Home Page | Forum Discussion | Screenshot | Other OSes Get alerted to all of our Software updates on Twitter at @NeowinSoftware
    • BleachBit 6.0.1 Beta by Razvan Serea When your computer is getting full, BleachBit quickly frees disk space. When your information is only your business, BleachBit guards your privacy. With BleachBit you can free cache, delete cookies, clear Internet history, shred temporary files, delete logs, and discard junk you didn't know was there. Designed for Linux and Windows systems, it wipes clean thousands of applications including Firefox, Microsoft Edge, Google Chrome, Opera, Safari, and more. Beyond simply deleting files, BleachBit includes advanced features such as shredding files to prevent recovery, wiping free disk space to hide traces of files deleted by other applications, and vacuuming Firefox to make it faster. Better than free, BleachBit is open source. BleachBit has many useful features: Delete your private files so completely that "even God can't read them" according to South Carolina Representative Trey Gowdy. Simple operation: read the descriptions, check the boxes you want, click preview, and click delete. Multi-platform: Linux and Windows Free of charge and no money trail Free to share, learn, and modify (open source) No adware, spyware, malware, browser toolbars, or "value-added software" Translated to 64 languages besides American English Shred files to hide their contents and prevent data recovery Shred any file (such as a spreadsheet on your desktop) Overwrite free disk space to hide previously deleted files Portable app for Windows: run without installation Command line interface for scripting and automation CleanerML allows anyone to write a new cleaner using XML Automatically import and update winapp2.ini cleaner files (a separate download) giving Windows users access to 2500+ additional cleaners Frequent software updates with new features Going beyond standard deletion of files, BleachBit has several advanced cleaners: Clear the memory and swap on Linux Delete broken shortcuts on Linux Delete the Firefox URL history without deleting the whole file—with optional shredding Delete Linux localizations: delete languages you don't use. More powerful than localepurge and available on more Linux distributions. Clean APT for Debian, Ubuntu, Kubuntu, Xubuntu, and Linux Mint Find widely-scattered junk such as Thumbs.db and .DS_Store files. Execute yum clean for CentOS, Fedora, and Red Hat to remove cached package data Delete Windows registry keys—often where MRU (most recently used) lists are stored Delete the OpenOffice.org recent documents list without deleting the whole Common.xcu file Overwrite free disk space to hide previously files Vacuum Firefox, Google Chrome, Liferea, Thunderbird, and Yum databases: shrink files without removing data to save space and improve speed Surgically remove private information from .ini and JSON configuration files and SQLite3 databases without deleting the whole file Overwrite data in SQLite3 before deleting it to prevent recovery (optional) BleachBit 6.0.1 Beta release notes: BleachBit 6.0.1 beta is now available for testing. This maintenance-focused release includes bug fixes, updated translations, and a range of safe enhancements. This release fixes a Windows security issue that could allow arbitrary file deletion during privileged cleaning (reported by Zeze with TeamT5). It also adds new cleaners (including a DNS cache cleaner, Claude Code, and Visual Studio Code forks), support for multiple Chrome and Edge profiles, new deep scan options for developer directories like node_modules and venv, and safer, faster file shredding. All Platforms Added cleaners for Claude Code, DNS cache, and many Visual Studio Code forks. Added support for multiple Chrome and Edge profiles. Chrome can now clean downloaded AI models. Deep Scan can optionally remove venv, __pycache__, node_modules, and .angular directories. Deep Scan is faster by skipping directories on the keep list. File shredding is safer, faster, and leaves fewer recoverable traces. Improved handling of cookies, symlinks, Unicode filenames, external processes, and configuration files. Improved Expert Mode warnings and long warning dialogs. Fixed crashes related to cleaner detection, invalid Unicode, and malformed cleaner data. Clipboard is now cleared automatically after shredding files via paste operations. Linux Added AppImage support. Added cleaners for Visual Studio Code, Codeium, Librewolf (.deb), Transmission (Flatpak), and Profanity. Improved Linux trash detection, including Snap-installed applications and mounted drives. Fixed Wayland root CLI issues and several Snap-related problems. Improved package dependencies, AppStream metadata, and desktop file handling. Fixed startup crashes when Python Requests is unavailable. Windows Fixed a security vulnerability that could allow arbitrary file deletion when cleaning with elevated privileges. Added %WindowsSystem% variable support. Improved clipboard clearing using native Windows APIs. Improved installer experience on unsupported Windows versions. Reduced installer size and improved application robustness. Fixed Unicode handling, filename anonymization, Git revision reporting, and splash screen stability.

    • DriversCloud 12.1.6 by Razvan Serea With DriversCloud (formerly My-Config.com), you can explore your computer easily, safely and free. The application quickly scans your PC and identifies the hardware and software components. DriversCloud then establishes a list of the different drivers compatible with your OS and hardware. Download the drivers needed for the proper functioning of your computer. To detect your drivers, DriversCloud also displays a detailed summary of your hardware and software configuration, analyzes your BSOD, monitors in real-time your PC voltages and temperatures and lets you share your configuration online. Once the hardware components have been detected, you will be able to obtain with just a few clicks the latest drivers corresponding to the identified hardware. You can record your configuration on the site for free, and can get the corresponding URL to post the configuration to technical forums, e-mail and social networks. You can also download the detection result (the configuration) as a PDF file. To protect the user's privacy and data confidentiality, a 4-level confidentiality system was created that filters the XML marks and gives control to the user. The default level can be modified in the preferences. Using the maximum level will prevent the user from publishing his configuration and generating a corresponding PDF file. In non-connected mode, each XML configuration is stored on the server for one day (for practical reasons). However, you are given the opportunity to manually delete it. Created in 2004, and continually improved, My-Config.com has established itself on the web as a free service to PC users running Windows and Linux operating systems. The service is designed to work with the most common Internet browsers (Edge, Firefox, Chrome, Safari).
