KB828026 - Update for Device Sync with Windows Media Player in Windows 2000, Windows XP, and Windows Server 2003 (KB828026)

Consider the following scenario. You purchase a PlaysForSure-verified device, and you install the device. The device appears to be installed correctly. The device works correctly when you copy content that is ripped from CDs.

In this scenario, the device does not work correctly when you copy purchased content or subscription content from online services. When you try to copy this kind of content, the content is not copied. Rio Carbon devices that have the PlaysForSure firmware may exhibit the problem that this article describes.

A supported hotfix is now available from Microsoft, but it is only intended to correct the problem that is described in KB Article 922814. Apply it only to systems that are experiencing this specific problem.

Hi guys,

In the first post inside this topic, i.e. the main topic, nw raptor has included the links of the latest hotfixes officially released by MS.

Now, I have XP-SP2 installed and this means that some of these hotfixes might be already installed with SP2. How do i get to know what should i install from these hotfixes from what i shouldn't?? :blink:

I have another question :D

AutoPatcher, as far as i read, contains several hotfixes. The question is how can i integrate them all in my custom created winxp installation iso created by either xpize or nlite??? i.e. the target is to use the already-collected package than to use the discrete hotfixes files.. ?

Any items already installed will show as blue in the AutoPatcher program, and will automatically be deselected for installation.

All of the hotfixes in AutoPatcher are in their original packaging from Microsoft, just organised into folders. You can go through each of these folders and copy the hotfix installations for use with xpize or nlite.

the lists of updates in the first post are based on the latest service pack, none of them are in the latest service pack, they were all released afterwards so you need all of them.

When the new AutoStreamer is finished (some time after stable AP v6, i. e. after Duke Nukem Forever :D ), you won't have to use any other program. It'll be so simple... if M$ doesn't include this feature in Windows 2020. :devil:

    • Anthropic pulls Fable 5 and Mythos 5 after US export control order

      By pradeepviswav · Posted

      Anthropic pulls Fable 5 and Mythos 5 after US export control order by Pradeep Viswanathan In April this year, Anthropic launched the Claude Mythos Preview frontier model with state-of-the-art cyber and coding capabilities for a select set of companies around the world. After preparing appropriate guardrails, early this week, Anthropic launched Claude Fable 5 and Mythos 5, its most capable AI models. Claude Fable 5 is for general users and comes with strict safeguards, while Mythos 5 is designed with fewer safeguards for cybersecurity and biology use cases. Today, Anthropic abruptly suspended access to its Fable 5 and Mythos 5 AI models for all customers after receiving an export control directive from the US government. The company received the directive from the government today at 5:21 p.m. ET, and the received letter did not provide any details regarding the national security concern. Anthropic understands that the government became aware of a method to bypass, or “jailbreak,” Fable 5, which might be the reason behind the directive. The order was issued under national security authorities and requires the company to suspend all access to Fable 5 and Mythos 5 by any foreign national, whether they are inside or outside the United States. The restriction also applies to foreign national employees working at Anthropic. As a result, the company has disabled both models for all customers to ensure compliance. Access to previous Anthropic models like Opus and Sonnet is not affected by this government order. The company highlighted that it had developed strong safeguards to reduce the possibility that Fable is misused for tasks related to cybersecurity. In fact, many developers are complaining that the safeguards are going overboard. Additionally, the company worked with the US government, the UK AISI, multiple private third-party organizations, and internal teams to red-team Fable’s safeguards for thousands of hours. Finally, Anthropic noted that no testers have yet been able to find a universal jailbreak on Fable 5. As expected, Anthropic disagrees that a narrow potential jailbreak should lead to the recall of a commercial model used by hundreds of millions of people. It warned that applying this standard across the AI industry could effectively halt new frontier model deployments. Anthropic concluded by mentioning that it is working to restore access to Fable 5 and Mythos 5 as soon as possible and plans to share more details within the next 24 hours.
