Well, a solution must be found, because when WIE7 gets out of beta and gets included in AP, the same thing will happen. But don't worry, there is time. After all, there are another themes that are waiting to be included:

4 legs

Brazil Beaches

Historical Monuments

Nature 2

(Since they are in x64 version, I guess that they are MS official.)

It seems there is a new version of KB905472 - even though I installed the AutoPatcher one this morning (after formatting and clean XP reinstallation), along with all other updates etc., when I went on MU a little later, I had to install it again.

Hi,

It is not at all clear that IE7 will need validation to download and install on XP. MS may release it for general download as it may contain "security" updates.

However I doubt that MS would release anything to automate the installation of similar protected downloads.

Photo Story 3 has the same issues in that you need to have an activated and validated Windows XP installation before you can install it.

I am sure that the installers might be modifed to work-around this issue (it can be for Windows Defender).

However it might just be easier to ensure that your system is activated and validated before you use APXP.

KB905472 has been updated to build 1.5.540.0 as of a few days ago.

I am looking for cheap high bandwidth Web space so I can host APXP updates, if anyone has any suggestions please let me know.

Kind Regards

Simon

About WIE7 - did you try it? Every version I have been using has been requesting an online validation. Beta 2 preview 1, beta 2 preview 2, beta 2, beta 3... Even though this makes WIE7 less popular, I doubt that M$ will remove the validation in future.

About WD - WD doesn't have the online validation (it has an offline one). Its validation really can be bypassed? Didn't know. :huh:

Having validated WinXP works only for offline validations. You don't even need no validating, you just need legal WinXP.

Will you update your KB905472 for AP July? :woot:

KB905472 is updated AGAIN!

I guess M$ is constantly updating the stolen S/N database...

It seems that the July Update is going to be pretty big... Flash Player * 2, Shockvawe Player, Active Sync, KB911280 v2, KB914440, WMP hotfix * 7, new KB905472, TweakUI fix... :cool:

OMG! Quo vadis, WMP?

M$ is releasing the hotfixes tommorow. See here. It seems that KB892130 is going to be updated again -

Microsoft will release one NON-SECURITY High-Priority Updates on Microsoft Update (MU) and Windows Server Update Services (WSUS).

KB892130 hasn't been updated, but there are other things:

Security Update for Microsoft .NET Framework, Version 2.0 (KB917283)

A security issue has been identified that could allow an attacker to compromise your Windows-based system running the Microsoft .NET Framework and gain access to restricted data. You can help protect your computer by installing this update from Microsoft. After you install this item, you may have to restart your computer.

Security Update for Windows XP (KB914388)

A remote code execution security issue has been identified in the DHCP Client service that could allow an attacker to remotely compromise your Windows-based system and gain control over it. You can help protect your computer by installing this update from Microsoft. After you install this item, you may have to restart your computer.

Security Update for Windows XP (KB917159)

A remote code execution security issue has been identified in the Server service that could allow an attacker to remotely compromise your Windows-based system and gain control over it. You can help protect your computer by installing this update from Microsoft. After you install this item, you may have to restart your computer.

Security Update for Windows XP (KB917537)

A security issue has been identified that could allow an attacker to remotely compromise your Windows-based system using Windows Internet Information Services and gain control over it. You can help protect your computer by installing this update from Microsoft. After you install this item, you may have to restart your computer.

Is Windows Live Messenger going to be included? M$ says it's a new version of M$N Messenger.

And a slight correction. When I searched web for KB905472, I wondered why the only result was this forum. And then I realized that it's not KB905472 but KB905474.

It looks like they just updated atapi.sys to a new version. Is it too late to add this bugger to this months update?

KB920918 - An IDE device runs in PIO mode instead of in DMA mode after you update the firmware for the device in Windows XP

After you update the firmware for an IDE device on a computer that is running Microsoft Windows XP, the device runs in Program Input/Output (PIO) mode instead of in Direct Memory Access (DMA) mode. Therefore, the performance of the device may be significantly reduced.

    • Bose QuietComfort Ultra Gen 2 headphones are down to lowest price in over a month by Taras Buria Bose's second-gen QuietComfort Ultra headphones are premium over-ear headphones with noise cancellation, but right now, you can save 16%, thanks to a discount that brought the headphones to a new lowest price in over a month. While the general look and aesthetics remain unchanged compared to the previous gen, the Gen 2 features redesigned wear-detection sensors, which accurately pause your music the moment you take them off. Additionally, the headphones now support lossless audio via a direct USB-C wired connection, letting you enjoy uncompressed sound when plugged into your laptop or phone. There is also spatial audio support (works wirelessly) for a more immersive audio experience and improved noise cancellation, which makes the QuietComfort Ultra go-to headphones for many users on long flights or other scenarios when they need to isolate themselves from the surrounding noise. The QuietComfort Ultra (Gen 2) also features Bluetooth Multipoint for seamless switching between two devices at once. As for battery life, you get up to 30 hours on a single charge (up to 23 hours when using spatial audio). Besides good audio quality and noise cancellation, the headphones should be comfortable to wear, thanks to the lightweight 250-gram design and soft protein-leather ear pads.

    • Started implementing weapons! Here's a little sneak peek! 👀 Animation was done inside of Unreal Engine using Control Rig! Really useful tool, I don't have to go back and forth between Blender and UE, you can basically make tweaks while the game is running.
    • Keep in mind Intuit has lobbied like crazy to keep taxes complicated so they can continue to sell tax software. They also got caught hiding their legally mandated free version so they could release a second one that pushed countless people into charges they didn't need to pay to file. Intuit leads the charge on inventing problems so they can sell you the solution and disrespecting you in the process.
    • Oddly, there was a time that UFC games were culturally relevant, largely because of the graphics and gameplay that was different than the norm. But it seems like as the sport grew in popularity, gaming outlets stopped talking about the games.
